THE 2024 Paris Olympics are only just reaching the halfway mark, and the first Paris Games volunteers are reportedly already putting their uniforms up for sale via online platforms.
Broadcasters BFMTV said that one asking price for the popular hat is 210 euros (228 dollars), 147 euros for a pair of trousers and 84 euros for a scarf.
A volunteer from the concluded rugby events is offering a bag for 105 euros, saying he does not like the colour, the report said.
The 45,000 volunteers are very distinctive with their turquoise and blue uniform produced by sports goods makers Decathlon.
The uniform is not for general sale and volunteers are not allowed to wear it outside their designated job until one month after the Olympics and Paralympics.
BFMTV said that Decathlon are considering a collection inspired by the volunteers’ uniform and sell it post-Games.(dpa/NAN)
