Glacier-inspired blue-green tones appear in the casual line, while ceremonial pieces use clean tailoring and high-insulation materials.
Team United States will compete in a collection designed by Ralph Lauren and Nike ACG, using a navy, white and red palette with streamlined technical silhouettes.

The design maintains the U.S. colour tradition with lightweight warmth for winter conditions.
Team Australia will wear uniforms designed by Sportscraft, featuring tailored green-and-gold ceremonial coats in matte technical fabrics with structured shoulders and slim cuts.
Gold accents appear as fine seam lines and tonal layering pairs deep greens with eucalyptus shades.
Southern Cross or wattle motifs are applied through minimal embroidery, while the lining lists all Australian Winter Olympians, marking gold medallists in gold.
Team Brazil will wear Milano Cortina 2026 uniforms designed by Moncler, using green, yellow and blue in sharp colour-blocked panels.
Jackets use down-filled matte shells, high collars and precise quilting, while ceremonial pieces adopt tailored cuts with subtle yellow piping.
Mid-layers apply smooth transitions between blue and green to maintain a consistent national palette.
Team Italy will wear uniforms designed by EA7 Emporio Armani, using a white and midnight-blue palette with sharp, minimalist tailoring.
