What would the Olympics be without some good old meme-worthy content?

 

Enter Arno Kamminga of the Netherlands, who swam in the Men’s 100m Breaststroke on Day 1 of the competition, captivating social media with his distinctive swimwear.

 

Although he secured second place, Kamminga won the internet’s admiration with his unconventional choice of trunks.

 

Participating in the Olympic Games Paris 2024 at Paris La Defense Arena on Saturday (July 27) in Nanterre, France, the 28-year-old athlete donned a snug, striking pair of swim shorts.

In a move that seemed crafted by a PR team, the Netherlands selected a flesh-colored orange for the thighs of their trunks, creating an optical illusion that made Arno appear nearly naked, according to News.com.au.

This audacious decision astonished social media, with one individual writing on X (formerly known as Twitter): “Definitely watching for the sport.”

Another user simply inquired: “Name???”
