Sportswear giant Nike and USA Track & Field unveiled the 2004 federation uniforms at the 2004 U.S. Olympic Team Trials in Sacramento, California.
Several top athletes were in attendance to reveal the uniforms that will debut in Athens and be worn during the next four years of competition.
The collection, which includes the Nike Swift Suit, Marathon Singlet and Unitards, feature a bold USA identity and the colors of Red, White and Blue.
During the two-year design process, special attention was paid to zoned aerodynamics, strategic seam placement, weight reduction, thermoregulation and articulated fit.
Jordan Wand, Nike Global Director of the Advanced Innovation Team said, "We believe apparel to be a piece of equipment, not an accessory."
"Apparel must not only fit optimally so that it doesn''t impede the athlete''s maximum performance, the design can actually make an athlete faster through advanced materials, aerodynamic considerations and innovative cooling technologies," he added.
The 2004 Nike Swift Suit for track and field is lighter, more breathable and most importantly, faster. Much of the innovation developed for Nike Swift technology has been used in each piece of the 2004 USA Track and Field uniforms.
The Men''s Short-Sleeved Unitard features seaming that has been moved to the back of the garment for improved aerodynamics and hems with a patented no-sew finish, in place of seams, that fit snugly against the skin.
