No matter if you’re not faster, taller or stronger than anyone else at the gym. You still look as good as the real thing, courtesy of the Polo Ralph Lauren U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Team Village Wear collection on sale at teamusa.org.

Polo Ralph Lauren, the ‘official outfitter of the 2008 Olympic Team,’ is offering everything from hats and shirts to jackets and hoodies.

The most expensive items appear to be a men’s Beijing mesh duofold jacket and a men’s full-zip Beijing hoodie. Each is listed at $149.

The U.S. Olympic Committee online store also has its share of collectibles.

A set of 38 shot glasses (each depicting a different Olympic sport) is going for $89.99. Basketball jerseys for some guy named ‘Jordan’ have been marked down from $79.99 to $29.99.

And you can make ‘a statement of pride in our U.S. Olympic Team’ for $34.99 -- which gets you a Nike Beijing medal stand cap.
