The official uniforms for the USA Golf men’s and women’s teams have been released for the Tokyo Summer Olympics. The uniforms for both teams were designed by Tokyo-based artist Hiroko Takahashi, who drew inspiration from Shingen Takeda, a pre-eminent Japanese warrior in the Sengoku period, where he inspired others to be “as fast as the wind, as quiet as the forest, as daring as fire, and immovable as the mountain.”
Each day both the men’s and women’s team will have a different uniform that represents one of the characteristics from the saying: Round 1 – Wind, Round 2 – Forest, Round 3 – Fire, and Round 4 – Mountain.
“I THINK THAT I WAS ABLE TO DESIGN WITH A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE FROM WHEN I DESIGN PRODUCTS FOR EVERYONE TO WEAR. I BELIEVE THAT GOLF IS A UNIQUE SPORT IN A SENSE THAT IT’S AN INDIVIDUAL SPORT, BUT YOU CAN ALSO PLAY IT WITH A TEAM. WITH THAT IN MY MIND, I DESIGNED THE USA GOLF UNIFORMS WITH LINKS OF CIRCLES AND LINES, IMAGINING THE POWERS OF INDIVIDUALS COMING TOGETHER AS ONE AND SPREADING INTO INFINITE POSSIBILITIES.”- Designer Hiroko Takahashi
