For the Paris Olympics, the entrance outfit was designed by Chou Yu-ying, who drew inspiration from Taiwan's natural landscapes—mountains, seas, cities, and plains. He used contemporary artist Jiang Hsien-erh's work "Taiwan Mountain Range" as the printed fabric for the design.

Why choose a double-breasted design instead of a single-breasted one?
Athletes typically have a triangular body shape due to their extensive training, which results in broad shoulders and a narrow waist. The double-breasted design can enhance the waistline and accentuate the athlete's physique.
What’s special about wearing a polo shirt under a suit?
The fabric is made with "germanium fibers" and cooling materials to enhance comfort and functionality, providing moisture-wicking properties for better breathability. The zipper design allows Olympic athletes to wear it in various styles, making it suitable for everyday wear as well.
Do the color choices have meaning?
This collection primarily features a blue-green color scheme, complemented by the national flag's red, white, and blue. The inspiration comes from Taiwan's mountains, seas, cities, and indigenous culture. Although this color scheme is non-mainstream, it’s easy to coordinate. It’s often difficult to find this color in ready-to-wear garments, as you usually have to go to a custom suit shop to find it.
According to our understanding, most athletes or fitness enthusiasts prefer clothing that fits their body shape. We have previously created custom suits for professional fitness trainers, which can serve as a reference for everyone.
