Olympics fever is in the air. There are only 85 days to go until the opening ceremony on the Seine. More than 400 Aussie athletes will be heading to Paris – and they’ll be doing it in style.
Melbourne luggage brand July has worked with the Australian Olympic Committee to create a custom iteration of its Carry On Pro suitcase for the 2024 team.
The palette is inspired by the uniforms worn at the 1956 Melbourne Olympics. A textured cream shell is finished with golden hardware, green zippers and leather handles.
“Receiving your Olympic bag is always a special moment, and seeing these designs and the thought put into it by the team at July, I know our athletes in Paris will truly appreciate it,” Australian Olympic Team Chef de Mission Anna Meares said in a statement.
Sportscraft is kitting out the team in formal uniforms and Volley is supplying its iconic shoes for the occasion.
July shot its campaign at Melbourne University, which served as a training ground in 1956.
