Anybody know if our Olympians are wearing clothing that's made in the USA? I remember that at the China games, our uniforms weren't made in the USA. That's it.

Good.
I know that Canada's are Chinese made, lol!
Our brand-new, American-made speed skating suits are being ditched because they think they're slowing down the skaters. But I do believe the old ones they're going back to are also American made.
I don't know about the uniforms worn in competition, but the clothes worn in the opening ceremonies are 100% American.
Even the yarn for the sweaters came from sheep in Oregon.
I think motorhead and I may have both seen the same episode of "World News" on ABC, hosted by Diane Sawyer. It has a regular feature entitled, "Made in America," in which the embarrassment of the last Olympics' opening ceremonies uniforms having been made in China were since corrected for the Soshi Olympics.
@sofaking87,
You are wrong. Canadian Olympic Team uniforms were all made in Canada.
The replica gear available to the public at The Bay is made off shore but anything worn by a Canadian athlete in Sochi is made in Canada.
They are made in the USA by Ralph Lauren.
