In celebration of the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio, Christian Louboutin has teamed up to support the Cuban National delegation as Official Supplier of the Celebratory Outfit.

For the project, chic non-performance footwear was created to be worn by the athletes at formal occasions, in particular the Closing Ceremony. The shoe designs take visual cues not only from Cuban heritage but from the athletes themselves.

Top designer Ralph Lauren is also designing sportswear for swimmers and other athletes in the American National team.
