Guess it would be difficult to come up with outstandingly suave winter outfits to represent style AND your country. But some of these uniforms this year are incredibly quirky.

It makes it all the more interesting to watch a guy in bright orange tights roll down a snowy ice sculpture, or whatever sport they do over there.

Here are some of the more interesting uniforms from the countries.

Czech Republic

These aren't that awful, but the fur hats could have been designed less like a raccoon butt and more like a hat.

Germany

Largely just concentrating to make a political statement, the result of it looks so unsavoury. The look is very bright and very attention seeking, but those are the only good things we can say about the outfit.

U.S.A

Holy smokes. What the hell is going on at the crotch area?

Russia

It might not be the worst looking drab, but they're the host of the entire thing. They could have done without the awkwardly big R U, awkwardly placed on their chests.

Norway

It might be a surprising look but this one is the best of the worst. The look is cheerful, but they do look like they belong in an acapella quartet.

Japan

What a contrast of colour. The blue shade is pretty neat, but they could have done without the crazy orange life jackets.

Latvia

Hey look, a character from Sesame Street decided to compete.

Lithuania

We can't even begin to tell you how much this outfit blows. On the plus side, the boots are marvellous. It might be their national colour, but it looks like pyjamas.

Official Volunteers

Looking at the details, it's kind of intricate and it has a sort of Japanese origami feel to is, but once you look at it on a person, it feels like they're wearing grandma's unfinished quilt.

Kazakhstan

It's smart that they added the yellow from their flag in the tiniest amounts in their uniform. But they could have used less yellow because its like a baby coloured the uniforms in with a highlighter.

Mexico

This is incredible.



Though we're here cracking jokes about the uniforms, we still have a great respect for the athletes. They're doing what regular humans can't do. Especially since most of us have never experienced winter. Good luck at the games and have fun wearing that crotchless skin tight disaster, America.
