Ugh. Those are just awful.
That's what's cool about it. The Astana jersey actually looks good with the Itaian colors. It looks much better now that it goes all the way around. And the bands are wide which looks nice. Those Movistar and Leopard/Trek ones were awful, I agree.Libertine Seguros said:Italy can do the big tricolore or can do the bands across the chest. But the problem is not bands across the chest. It's that the jersey is basically an Astana jersey with some bands across the middle.
I liked those Santamorita looks, mostly because they incorporated the entire kit. Those white jerseys with a couple of flag colored bands and normal team bibs are just boring and nondescript.Afrank said:Should be full tricolor (see Santaromita's from BMC and Orica), and what Netserk said, also...band across chest jersey's are horrible no matter what.
