Liberia's 'spaghetti strap' men's running kit at the World Relays sends track world into frenzy

Liberia's men's relay squad stole the spotlight at the World Relays for their performance and their running kits.

The World Relays in Bahamas had several talking points that got the track world into frenzy mode, one of which is the running kit worn by the Liberian male athletes.

Their men's 4x100m relay team turned up in a black and white slim strapped vest, different from the acknowledged kits worn by track athletes.


The squad of Akeem Sirleaf, Emmanuel Matadi, Jabex Reeves, and Joseph Fahnbulleh will then make history for their country after a jaw-dropping anchor leg run moved them from fifth position to a National Record (NR) of 38.65s, thus qualifying for their first-ever Olympics in the event.
