Question... why can't the women wear their uniforms they way they were designed to be worn? Show some respect and don't roll the waistband over on the shorts, don't roll the sleeves of the jersey so it looks like a tank-top.

If you want to represent the USA and wear short-shorts and tank-tops, try beach soccer. They looked disgraceful. You didn't see the mens team altering the uniform.

I don't want the world to see them in the final game looking like slobs, better they lose now in the group stage.

Perhaps they had been given mens' sized uniforms which were too big, too long in the leg, too baggy, etc. If the uniform had been designed for women to wear, then the women may not have had to adjust them to fit their bodies.

Clearly they were designed for women. Give me a break, this is not the first time women have ever played soccer. You really believe that Nike doesn't know how to design for women?

It's probably their attitudes that need adjusting and not their uniforms.

No idea about Nike, but I know that AYSO soccer uniforms and school pe clothes are definitely not designed for women. Also, some of the fan shirts for professional teams are also not designed for women's figures.
