Best and Worst National Champs jerseys

[williamp78]

Nice, simple but classy at the same time.

I quite like the stripes on the shorts too; nice touch

May this is Vino attempt at motivation: "Nibs, what do you mean this is ***? An insult to Italy, cycling and comment decency you say?! You don't want to wear it, get yourself in Yellow then!" Said in a Kazakh accent obviously.

Well, it seems to have worked. Let's see if the prospect of returning to that hideousness inspires him to work to keep it.

Cue the annual Dutch champion jokes...

Now we've all had a few years getting used to it (with decent rider's winning GB champs) I don't think that argument will resurface.

Very classy, clean and simple with minimal logo inteference. Like a Champ's jersey should be.

Apart from that brief period in 2012 where they insisted all riders should look the same as national champions, which led to EBH being given a horrible white-with-a-picture-of-the-Norwegian-flag jersey, Sky have always done very good champions' kits. It helps being able to do simple, elegant white jerseys with the bands and black shorts (Knees' German kit, Cav's World Champion kit and the various British championship jerseys).

Cataldo ITT shirt last year wasn't that good. The same for Siutsou.

Nibali's national jersey.. I have no words.. It's probably the ugliest jersey I've ever seen! And they even got the Italian flag messed up.. Disgrace.

I agree ...........................

Estonian national road race champion jersey on the shoulders of fresh champion Alo Jakin (BigMat-Auber 93):

Looks very nice and simple

Proof of Siutsou's terrible time trial jersey:

Is Simon Gerrans not wearing his normal kit here? was there a reason for all white?

 

[Netserk]

In stage 1 he had his usual jersey. Maybe the white is a skinsuit?

 

[Squirbos19]

yeah it looks like the white one is a skinsuit, but I'm not too sure.
But I definitely rather the yellow and green jersey to the white one.

 

[manafana]

did the tour tell him to change his jersey as too much yellow for there liking?

Love how fdj and big mat do jerseys

 

[Samson]

French teams generally make good jerseys.

Jack Bauer posted a picture of Ramunas Navardauskas's new TT champ skinsuit:

[Netserk]

Different collar and sleeves, but almost the same as the previous one. Very nice, but I do think Barta's was better. Has it always been a tricolour jersey?

 

[l.Harm]

I checked some relatively unknown former Czech champions and yes, all of them I saw was this tricolour. However not everyone as smooth as Stybars one. And I think Stybar got less sponsor names on his jersey, so that one is better imo.

 

[Netserk]

I think it'd be nice with the flag like this on the jersey:

 

[LaFlorecita]

Wow! Go Styby!!

And I like Navardauskas' TT jersey too

 

[l.Harm]

I think it'd be nice with the flag like this on the jersey:

Yep, I agree. But very easy to mess up a jersey like that. Especially if you see some champion jerseys

 

[ILovecycling]

Styby,what a class!

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

Navardauskas has the best gloves in all of cycling.

 

[Jancouver]

I think it'd be nice with the flag like this on the jersey:

I agree. There is too many blue/red/white jerseys out there

 

[RedheadDane]

Valgren just pretty much inherited Mørkøv's jersey.

 

[roadbiker]

I don't know how the "new" Danish Camp jersey looks like, but pic of Valgren is only a Photoshop retouching of Mørkøv's pic.
