Noah’s fashion jewelry has become one of his most prominent signature aspects, as it’s quite evident by now that loves to showcase as much bling on his body as he likes to display on the tracks. The silver, gold, and grey necklace he wore at the men’s 100m dash final, too, was a testament to his emphatic outlook as he made the most of the race to highlight his adoration for ornaments.
