The new Australian Olympic uniforms for the London games have been spruiked as being lighter, stronger and cooler than its predecessors.
Four-time Olympian, Natalie Cook, said the new uniforms were surprisingly light.
"It feels like a part of my body, it's really quite amazing," she told SBS.
"So, I had to look down to make sure I had something on."
Hurdler, Sally Pearson, will be wearing track shoes 25 per cent lighter than those in the Beijing Olympics.
800 athletes will wear the green and gold uniforms in London, and with only 121 days to go until the Olympics, all eyes are focussed on achieving at least fifth place on the medal tally.
"They've all done the work they'll all done the training, that's not a problem," said Chef de mission of the Australian team, Nick Green.
"It's really [good to] soak in the opportunity and the atmosphere of the olympics and have some fun while you're doing it."
