The LA '84 Olympic Heritage Capsule featuring five-time Olympic medalist Greg Louganis, launching on July 22nd, 2024, is a tribute to the iconic moments that defined a generation.

Looking towards the future with unbridled anticipation, the 2024 series will feature three drop capsules, culminating with the LA '28 Capsule launching on August 11th, 2024. This final chapter is a celebration of what's to come – new records, new heroes, and new memories yet to be made. Featuring vibrant tank tops and swim trunks, this segment embodies the dynamism and excitement of the upcoming LA '28 Olympics, promising to inspire and captivate. Look forward to future Chubbies designs supporting Team USA for the upcoming additional games such as the Olympics Winter Games Milan (2026) and the Olympics Summer Games LA (2028), as the brand continues to celebrate the spirit of the Olympic Games.
