Chinese Masterpiece: Lin Dan'S Battle Shoes Specially Made Zhang Jike'S Battle Robe Can'T Tear

Four years ago, the Beijing Olympic Games left us too many legends about equipment. In particular, Phelps wore "shark skin" to win eight gold medals, which has almost become an unsurpassed legend in the history of the Olympic Games. At the 2012 London Olympic Games, "shark skin" has been banned from entering the water. However, the story of the "skin" on the athletes is still telling a wonderful story.

Table tennis team uniform: Zhang Jike can't tear it

Remember the scene when Zhang Jike won the championship at the World Table Tennis Championships in Rotterdam last year? After winning the match point, he was so excited that he forced the ball to his chest and tore it into two pieces. "This time, I'm afraid Zhang Jike will tear it down and destroy another one clothes We asked Li Ning Company to make the clothes a little firmer. " When talking about the Olympic uniforms of the table tennis team, head coach Liu Guoliang couldn't help complaining about his beloved general.

In addition to being more solid, the most eye-catching and high-tech design of the table tennis team uniforms is behind the athletes. Gold powder painted dragon scales on the sportswear. As the players ran and waved, the dragon scales would open and close. The gold reflected the light, as if a giant dragon would emerge behind the purple dragon when it used the "Lushan Ascending Dragon King". The designer first saw the dragon scale on the tiles of Xianyang Museum, and finally "pasted" it on the athlete's back. The designer gave it a handsome and loud name "Chilin Window". Don't think it is used to create visual effects. In fact, it is a high-tech design.

The designer of Li Ning told the reporter: "The opening and closing of these scaly air holes are mainly determined by the athletes' movement changes on the field. When athletes enter a high intensity confrontation or complete a specific technical action, the 'red scale window' will automatically open according to the state of the human muscle group, accelerating the natural flow of air between the body and clothing; during the basic game action, the 'red scale window' will automatically close, It can reduce the heat loss of athletes and help them recover their physical strength better. " And don't worry about these "Chilin" disobedience. They are made of special materials with good elasticity and are very close to the body. In addition to table tennis uniforms, "Chilinchuang" will also be used in badminton uniforms, shooting uniforms and a series of Olympic gold medal team uniforms.

In addition, this time, the Olympic team uniform is no longer the only "tomato scrambled eggs". Liu Guoliang said that except for the team members who want to wear red and yellow uniforms, individual matches can be played at will. For example, "Zhang Jike won the championship last time at the Rotterdam World Table Tennis Championships in red, and he will continue to wear lucky red at the London Olympic Games. Ma Lin has always loved blue, and she will definitely wear blue for individual events." The most anticipated thing is Ding Ning, whose team uniform for individual events has not been released yet. It is said that it is the color she chose, which is even cooler and brighter than red, and only knew it at the game!

Badminton team kit: specially customized by Lin Dan

How many tricks are there in a set of equipment? Look at Lin Dan's shoes.

Lin Dan's London boots were designed by him.

These shoes are made of orange and gray, which are said to represent Lin Dan's "doomsday view". "Orange represents passion and hope, while gray sometimes represents despair. In the face of the end of the world, are you willing to welcome tomorrow with hope, or are you willing to wait for death with pessimism and despair?" This is the question from Lin Dan.

Of course, the most important thing about shoes is the feeling of wearing them on the feet. "Meteor Garden" says that a pair of good shoes will take you to a beautiful place. According to the characteristics of badminton, Lin Dan's boots adopt a protection system called "TuffTIP" at the toe to reduce the wear and tear of the shoes caused by the dragging action in the sport, which was once called "badminton shoe killer". Semi wrapped EVA structure is used at the ankle to enhance lateral stability and support and protect the ankle and heel. There is also a TPU ankle joint binding mechanism, which can strengthen the binding protection of the ankle during movement... Lin Dan likes the feeling that the upper is higher and tightly wraps the ankle, so you will find that the upper of the shoes on Lin Dan's feet is higher than that of his teammates during the game.

Diving team kit: tomato's counter attack

When talking about the diving team, we always think of Guo Jingjing and Wu Minxia standing side by side, wearing beautiful blue swimsuits to step onto the platform. It is not that they don't have to wear the color of "tomato scrambled egg" like other sports teams, but that red was a technical problem that was difficult to break through on diving swimsuits. If you don't believe me, who has ever worn a bright red swimsuit? Because the swimsuit of the diving team is required to be light and thin, and it must be close to the body without losing elasticity when going up and down several times, under this premise, the red fabric will have the problem of color transmission on the skin. Even if many athletes like this color again, they can't really wear it to the match site. There is probably no diving team in any country that would like to wear red on the field as we do. This year, "Tomato Color" finally counterattacked, which is also the result of countless experiments carried out by designers, fabric manufacturers and factory workers.

Of course, in addition to the color, the new swimsuit also has the same high-tech "shark skin". The fabric can maximize the extension of difficult movements. It also designs a special back structure and hip structure according to the principles of ergonomics; In addition, there are also technical drainage channels and permeable mesh grooves in the middle seam of buttocks. When athletes enter the water, they can quickly drain the water between the swimsuit and the body, reduce the resistance to entering the water, and achieve the effect of reducing water spray. This is also due to the athletes' repeated trying on and continuous improvement.

In this Olympic Games, you will see the beautiful phoenix flower pattern on the swimsuits of Wu Minxia and He Zi. It is not only beautiful, but also very coordinated in the doubles competition, which will produce a synchronized effect visually.
