CORTINA D’AMPEZZO, Italy — The Olympic Jamaican bobsled team is working to make a comeback, and a Utah company is supporting it through the Milan-Cortina Winter Games.
“We’re working on it and working just as hard as everybody else, if not harder,” Jamaican Olympian Tyquendo Tracey said.
If you can’t join them, might as well make their clothing. Knowing the country’s history, outdoor gear company Backcountry is excited to help build Team Jamaica up for the Olympics.
“A few years ago, we started working with them. They needed warm clothes to prepare for their events, for practices,” Jodie Taylor, head of brands for Backcountry, said.
