I like it. Not as good as his Vacansoleil one but still a good job.
 
Hey don't judge.

The guy is the team biggest start and since he is the world champion he can't have all the sponsors on his jersey like he normally would. If they also fully respect the national champ jersey it would mean that many sponsors would be paying and not getting any return from Costa.

It doesn't mean i like the jersey, which i don't, i just don't judge lampre on this design.

But I do blame the sponsors for somewhat botching the Nats jersey. I think they should look at the bigger picture and respect the traditional concept of such a jersey a bit more. Also I don't think such a respect will decrease the ROI at all.

It's a full body national champ kit and not a band around the middle kit. Not much more that can be asked for IMO, looks good.

Yeah, ones black, I kinda like that look actually.

Another one, Jungels.

The black sleeves give the kit's some distinction in my opinion. And them being full body makes them good. I'm liking the other sleeve being stripped with the national colors too.

People often give out about Trek's national champions jersey and don't get me wrong some are shocking ie the Austrian jersey but Sagan's Cannondale jersey is equally as awful. Its hardly recognizable at all, as is the Polish TT champions jersey. The champions jersey should stand out and be recognizable to all. Some of the good champions jersey's are Hushovd BMC, Santamorita Orica, Vichot FDJ, Schar BMC, Hoogerland Androni. Also a shame some teams, Trek, Orica, Garmin, Tinkoff (with the exception of Rogers last year who had tt bands on) don't have the bands of former champions on their jerseys.
