Starting next week...

Some odd high-tech sports gear will be in use in the Rio Olympic games starting next week.
You'll see swimmers such as Missy Franklin hit the water in Speedo's new LZR Raper X suit. The suit has laser-cut straps to ensure it lies flat against the body (preventing drag in the water) and helps improve range of motion through the arms, refinery29.com reports.

When reigning Olympic champ (and current Vogue cover star) Ashton Eaton goes for the gold in Rio, you might see him wearing an strange looking cooling hood created for him by the Nike Sports Research Lab, the website added.
