They’ve always been heroes, but now they’re super heroes!

Thanks to an exciting partnership with Disney’s Marvel property, the team have been kitted out in outfits based on famous Marvel super-heroes like Captain Marvel and Captain America. And, as you can see for yourself, they look pretty heroic.

The suits are a collaboration between Spyder, the official apparel provider for the United States Ski Team (USST) through 2020, and Disney Consumer Products and Interactive Media.

“We’re thrilled to be working with Marvel in bringing their Super Heroes to life with the U.S. Ski Team and beyond,” said Brady Collings, vice president of marketing for Spyder, per The Mary Sue. “Given Marvel’s inspirational impact around the world, we have an extraordinary opportunity to celebrate the U.S. Ski Team as well as our ambassadors in a broad-reaching way.”

“Avengers: Infinity War” is scheduled to be released in the United States on May 4, 2018, in IMAX and 3D. The sequel is scheduled to be released on May 3, 2019.
