Nike's Olympic Games typeface has a lot of muscle

Nike Paris 2024 Olympic Games typeface.

A typeface for Olympic team kits needs to be versatile. It has to be legible on a wide range of sports clothing for training and at the Olympic village, and it also needs to have character to appeal to fans.
