On Friday night, South Africans eagerly awaited to see their star athletes at the opening ceremony of the 2024 Summer Olympic Games taking place in Paris.
The flag bearers for the occasion were sprinter Akani Simbine and artistic gymnast Caitlin Rooskrantz.
While the warm-up kits, casual wear and tracksuits that they will be wearing in the Olympic Village and during medal presentations are bold, with green and gold predominantly featured, the opening ceremony outfits were a bit, subdued.
Each athlete wore a classic khaki blazer, with the women athletes wearing theirs with a white round-neck top paired with dark green baggy pants with yellow graphic details.
