Kim Kardashian announced Monday (June 27th) in a series of tweets and Instagram posts that her label SKIMS will be providing the team USA with undergarments, loungewear, and pajamas during the 2021 Tokyo Olympic Games.
The reality television star shares how being the stepdaughter of Olympic champion Caitlyn Jenner taught her what it means to be an athlete.
”When I received the call inviting Skims to be a part of Team USA, every moment I’ve spent admiring the strength and energy of the Olympians from the sidelines came full circle,” she writes.
