...to really not give crap about Stella McCartneys Olympic Kit design?

OK, so it's great they've got a new kit but come on, it's nothing special is it. Why are they raving on about the design? Any one of us on MN could have designed it. In fact, maybe that's what they should have done, had a design competition and let the kids design it rather than someone who's agenda was probably to further her own brand name.

One athlete commented on twitter that it was nothing special but his comment was deleted soon after Hmm

is it crap?

LackaDAISYcal · 22/03/2012 22:35

It's just a kit 2shoes. Nowt special.

I thought she sounded like a right muppet on the news report though.

HalfPastWine · 22/03/2012 22:35

No, it's not crap but it's nothing out of the ordinary either.

MaureenMLove · 22/03/2012 22:37

I like it.

The athlete was Bradley Wiggins btw. 3 times Olympic gold medal winner. No one special! WinkGrin

Oooh, a McCartney who's a pretentious, over-rated twit! Wonder where she inherited that from?!

AitchTwoOhOneTwo · 22/03/2012 22:39

i think it's great, everyone will think Scotland's actually winning something for once. Grin

Can't believe they got Stella M to design it a competition open to all school pupils would have been better.

I think it is crap. Absolute shite, in fact. Stella MacCartney with Adidas. Shite, shite, shite.

You are making the error in thinking that the Olympics is for the people, not the corporates and technocrats.

Mrsjay · 22/03/2012 22:56

saw the itsy bitsy running uniform and a jacket on the one show earlier , it was meh Confused nothing special

OurPlanetNeptune · 22/03/2012 23:02

I know Whatmeworry. It makes me so annoyed. This is a wasted missed opportunity.

cookcleanerchaufferetc · 23/03/2012 06:31

The new uniform is crap .... Wtf with taking out the red tripe of the union jack? It is GB, not Scotland or as someone else said, x-factor! The design is rubbish and embarrassing to the nation. I think Stella is a contender for the Olymipic fuck up award ..... Along with the idiot who created those awful pink volunteer jackets. What twat is agreeing to all this? Where's a javelin when you need one!

Whatmeworry · 23/03/2012 07:15

Saw it on the news, it's as crap as the logo. Why didn't they just do everything in Corporate Grey, save the expense.

SoupDragon · 23/03/2012 07:16

Its utterly shit. What twat thought it was a good idea to remove the red from the Union flag?

BrigitBigKnickers · 23/03/2012 07:21

Dull dull dull-Awful!
Definitely should be more red and the blue colour should be brighter.

I reckon they should have made it a Blue Peter competition- I bet some little kid could have come up with a better design.
