How to be more Olympic-y 2
How to be more Olympic-y
Didn’t manage to save up enough air miles to make it to Beijing this year? No matter. Olympic glory may be reserved for world-class athletes, but even the PE-challenged can sport Olympic style.
First up: It's time to channel your inner Phelps (yes, you've got one). As patriotic as it is aerodynamic, the only thing this Speedo brief leaves to the imagination is where to stash your gold medal.
Price: $40. Buy it here.
