Physical description

This is a pair of grey Vans shoes. This pair belongs to a set of pieces that make up the costume of one of the three children seen in the film that opens the Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Games Paris 2024 (the one wearing the blue life jacket). Only the cap is missing from this set.

Notes

This costume was worn by one of the three children seen in the film that launches the Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Games. It is one of three children on board a boat accompanied by the masked torchbearer who will go to the Pont d'Austerlitz, which will explode in the colors of the French tricolor flag. These shoes were not made by the Paris 2024 costume team, they are from the Vans brand, it is very likely that they were recovered or found because that was the desire of the teams: to recycle.
