China's wushu team demonstrated not only fierce fighting and dazzling technical moves during the Olympics, but also stylish new uniforms.

Participants in the Beijing 2008 Wushu Tournament, which ran concurrently with the Games, wore black suits made of Dri-FIT, a new material designed by Nike, which draws sweat away from the body.

"I used to think it was impossible to design fashionable clothing for such an ancient sport, but their work surprised me," said Ma Lingjuan, China's gold medalist at the 2008 tournament.
