TIME Magazine listed their Worst and Best Opening Ceremony outfits for this year’s Olympics, and Jamaica has been voted as the BEST.
TIME had this to say of the Cedella Marley-designed Jamaican gear: “We love these uniforms, mostly because the designers didn’t seem to be trying too hard. The vivid colours and geometric colours are so fun! Just like the Olympics!”
This comes short of the recent shock at the fact that the Ralph Lauren United States Olympic gear was made in China.
The festive, island-vibed PUMA Jamaican Olympic team wear was designed by Cedella Marley, daughter of the legendary King of Reggae Bob Marley.
Team Germany
Team France
Team United Kingdom
Team South Korea

The total results were as follows: BEST – Jamaica, New Zealand, Italy, Germany, United Kingdom, South Korea.
