USA Swimming and TYR Unveil National Team Kit for 2024 Olympics
San Antonio, Texas. – USA Swimming, the National Governing Body for the sport, and TYR, the exclusive outfitter of the National Team and the National Junior Team, unveiled today the National Team Kit for the 2024 Paris Olympic Games. On display at the final stop of the 2024 TYR Pro Swim Series in San Antonio, fans will have the opportunity to view the head-to-toe kit, which includes footwear, technical apparel, and accessories for walkouts onto the swim deck during competition, media day appearances, training camps, as well as supplemental pieces for National Team coaches and National Team staff.
Beginning with the TYR USA Venzo, athletes will be armed with the industry’s first and only technical suit to analyze drag from a microscopic perspective. Utilizing ultra-smooth fiber to thread a frictionless, durable fabric, the TYR Venzo is designed with state-of-the-art Surface Lift Technology, preventing water from permeating the fabric and resulting in a higher body position in the water. In addition, a patent-pending taping and inner textile design, known as the Endo Max Compression Cage, provides a shield of support for the abdominals, obliques, and quadriceps.

Most notably, TYR will be the first USA Swimming National Team sponsor to provide footwear along with outerwear. The celebrated CXT-1 Trainer, named Gear Patrol’s “Best Gym Shoe for HIIT Training” in 2024, will make its debut on the world’s biggest stage. With a translucent engineered Stars & Stripes printed outsole, these trainers will be the perfect pairing to the apparel pieces in the collection.
