Usain Bolt gets in the spirit for Oktoberfest in Germany

Usain Bolt took a break from his work commitments to enjoy Oktoberfest in Munich, Germany.

The fastest man in the world decided to dress up for the famous beer festival by wearing lederhosen at the Hippodrom dent.

27-year-old Bolt posted a photo of his outfit on Instagram with the message: “When in Munich, Germany it’s a must to partake in the culture.. October Fest here I come…”




Bolt completed his outfit of a check shirt and brown Lederhosen, with a pair of yellow Puma trainers.  Just as well he added the Puma’s considering the sportswear manufacturers announced on Tuesday that it had signed a renewed endorsement contract with Jamaica’s star athlete.

Having partnered with the World and Olympic Champion since he was 16 years old, this new deal will see Puma work with Bolt through and beyond the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio.

Bolt recently won a total of six gold medals at the 2013 IAAF World Championships in Moscow.

“Puma has been with me since the very beginning. They recognised my talent at an early age and have supported me throughout, especially in the early years when I had some difficult times due to injuries. Their work and commitment to Jamaica is also very important to me. I have always been very happy to be a part of the Puma family,” said Bolt.
