LOS ANGELES (WCMH) — When the Team USA athletes aren’t in their leotards, swimsuits, spandex or jerseys in Tokyo this summer, they will be in SKIMS.

Kim Kardashian West announced on social media Monday that her clothing company will be the official provider of loungewear, undergarments and pajamas for the 2021 Olympians.

Kardashian West said in an Instagram post that she has a personal connection with the “dedication and honor being a part of the Olympics” embodies because of her former stepdad Caitlyn Jenner, who won the decathlon gold during the 1976 Olympics.

“When I received the call inviting Skims to be a part of Team USA , every moment I’ve spent admiring the strength and energy of the Olympians from the sidelines came full circle,” her caption states.

I traveled w my stepdad and family to all different cities for the Olympic trials, the Olympics and track meets of @Caitlyn_Jenner’s and at every stop I would buy an Olympic t-shirt as a souvenir. pic.twitter.com/N95515zTJa
