Brief Description
White shorts with small holes throughout. On left side is a colour image of a red flame that turns into pink, blue, purple and yellow stars. Beneath it are the Olympic Rings and the number "100". This image is encapsulated in a circle of green printed text that reads "THE 1996 OLYMPIC TORCH RELAY". Shorts have an elasticised waist with a drawstring. The manufacturers label is sewn into the back of the waist and two further tags are attached by plastic to the front of the shorts. One is a "Champion" tag and the other is an "OFFICIAL LICENSED PRODUCT..." tag.
