I think it has something to do more with the clothing manufacturer, than the actual team. The clothing manufacturer decides how the national champs colours will be incorporated into the overall jersey design. Leopard-Treks are barely noticeable and are made by Craft (going for a minimal effect maybe :confused: ??), whereas OPQS and Lotto are both made by Vermac (as far as i remember anyway). Like Cav's a lot :) its similar to Wiggin's jersey a few years ago..

Welcome to the Netherlands. All hail the new Dutch champion!!!

What the hell.

This must be a universal jersey. Too bad Chava didnt win the French RR because he could wear it too. Perhaps he will have one of these for TTs :D

It's about the same as Stannards jersey from the past year.

British Cycling are very strict about the Champs Jersey. It has to be a white jersey with the red, white and blue stripes. So in theory even radioshack would have to produce a half decent jersey. For the same reason you'll never get a big union jack design (like the kit used at the world champs or on track events)

Its a classic design and i feel produces a nice retro look.
