I saw Ilona Maher wear a red Skims Olympic boxer set on TikTok and now I must own a red Skims Olympic boxer set.
I’m never the most patriotic as I am during the Olympics season. Go Team USA!!! I adore throwing on a game while I work in the day, and curling up in bed at night with my phone scrolling videos of USA athletes on TiktOk like the little social media gremlin I am.
This week, everyone is sharing their Olympic kits and PR hauls from brands with Paris 2024 Olympics collection collabs. I watched all these videos for you and rounded up all the best Paris Olympics merch you can actually shop.
I may not be at the games, but I will happily wear some Olympic apparel as I root for Simone Biles.

Olympics apparel is not a new thing, brands like Ralph Lauren have been pumping out branded gear for years but this year hits different.
Thanks to TikTok and Instagram, us normals at home are getting to see all the massive Paris Olympic Gear athletes get be unboxed by them in real-time on our feeds. And let me tell you – nothing is more influential than hot athletes sporting Team USA merch. No unboxing video can ever be topped.
While the official Olympic USA gear in kits aren’t available to non-competing athletes, there’s still tons of brands doing collaborations with seriously cute Olympic attire.
From water bottles to caps to activewear sets to chic sweaters, these are the Paris apparel pieces I have in my cart right now.
1. Skims
The Skims for Team USA collection is by far the most popular online. They’ve knocked it out of the park with trendy red, white and blue collections that stay true to their core brand.
Athletes like Ilona Maher are sporting their Skims Olympic Boxer and Swim Dip Tie Bottom online and they are seriously cute. From tanks to terry cloth robes to swim sets, Skims is the cool girl of the Olympic merch.
2. Ralph Lauren
Ralph Lauren is the daddy of Olympics merch and always creates the most beautiful, timeless Team USA collections that can be worn again and again. Hey, they’re the official designer of the Team USA opening and closing ceremony looks for a reason.
Their Team USA knit sweater this year is my favorite Paris Olympics merch clothing item and makes me stop scrolling every time I see an athlete wearing one. But also, can we talk about this hat and this white jacket has the perfect balance of timeless class with Team USA branding.
3. Nike
Nike has a plethora of Team USA shoe designs available -from running shoes to chic, subtle slides that you can pair with your daily outfits. They also have cute, sporty windbreakers and pullovers for morning jogs. If you’re on the hunt for very sport Team USA merch, Nike has it right now.
4. Jcrew x Team USA Swimming
Behind gymnastics, swimming is my favorite sport to watch during the summer Olympics which is why I’m thrilled to see this incredibly chic collab with Jcrew and the USA Swimming team.
They have a retro t-shirt and ball caps, but also this insanely awesome bomber jacket for the swim team. If you love Katie Ledecky as much as I do, you need some JCrew merch this summer
5. Recess Pickleball
Nastia Liukin, a 2008 Olympic Gold Medal gymnast, teamed up with pickleball brand Recess for some seriously cute Olympics Paris merch. From paddleboards with the Eiffel Tower on them, to chic pickleball outfits, this collection makes me want to hit the courts asap.
More Team USA Olympics Merch To Shop
I’ll be keeping this post updated with brands doing official large Olympics collections as I find them but there are so many brand with fun one-off Paris 2024 items that I’m obsessed with as well.
Happy shopping and GO team USA!
