Team Great Britain has unveiled the stylish uniforms their athletes will be sporting at the Paris Olympics this summer, and Olympic diver Tom Daley is turning heads in blue! The first images showcase Daley proudly representing the diving team in the vibrant new attire.
In a statement, Daley expressed his excitement about wearing the new uniform:
“The pride and passion I feel when representing my country on the biggest sporting stage is second to none, so to unveil a kit that encompasses what this moment means is incredibly special. I cannot wait to proudly wear it in Paris this summer, alongside my fellow teammates.”
Ensuring optimal performance, Daley emphasized the importance of the fit and material of the uniform.
“We’ve always been working on the fit and the material to make sure they’re as comfy as possible so that we can perform at our best,” Daley said. “For diving, you want to make sure everything’s in place and you don’t need anything going awry, especially when you’re spinning around. You hit the water at 35 miles an hour, so you don’t need anything in weird places,” as reported by PinkNews.

At 29, Daley has an impressive Olympic record, winning gold in the men’s synchronized 10-meter platform dive at the 2020 Olympics. He has also secured three bronze medals, two in the 10-meter platform at the 2012 and 2020 Olympics, and one in synchronized diving at the 2016 Olympics, making him the first British diver to win four Olympic medals.
Taking a brief hiatus from the sport after the 2020 Olympics, Daley made a triumphant return in 2023 at the British National Diving Cup, winning gold in the 10-meter platform synchro event alongside Noah Williams.
As the Paris Olympics approach, fans eagerly anticipate Daley’s quest for more medals and further success in his diving career.
