Best and Worst National Champs jerseys

[davidsonduke]

A compilation of 2023 NC jerseys revealed recently (in addition to those that have been already discussed in the team kits thread):

Ineos:

Jumbo:

Movistar:

Astana:

It's amazing how much the addition of the gold shoulders/sleeves on that Australian jersey make it work so well compared to the other teams with just the band across the chest. One of the best.

Indeed. IMO Plapp's 2023 jersey is much better than his 2022 one:

But I'm not sure if he's even scheduled for the upcoming race to defend it.

And now for a different kind of Champion Jersey. Josie Talbot's Oceanic Champion jersey:

Spoiler: Bigish

That's an extremely good and respectful champion's jersey.

This makes me hope a Caja rider wins the Spanish NC someday.

Don't get your hopes up.

Yea, Aular's jersey must be just about the best non-FDJ one we've seen in a while.

And here it is as an actual picture:

Not bad.

 

[RedheadDane]

But why does it randomly change to black?
Did they get the measuremements wrong, and just went "Hubdi-dubdi-dubdi-dooo. Yep! That should solve it." ?

Yeah, that is a bit weird. But the shorts are black too, so I think it's alright (okay, if the shorts weren't black that black bottom of the jersey would of course not be there).

took me a moment to understand why Alexander Kamp is wearing the Swiss cross

I'm pretty sure the Swiss cross doesn't extend all the way to the collar, or out to the sides.

Can someone post a picture of Froidevaux' jersey?

I don't really think it looks like the Swiss cross.

yeah, Froidevaux got a small one only.

I just saw Tudor, immediately though it must be Swiss, and only then started wondering about Kamp.

 

[davidsonduke]

The black at the bottom is a little awkward, but overall it is a very sharp look. The Swiss jersey is actually a bit more awkward looking, IMHO. I'm a fan of Tudor's look so far.

 

[lemon cheese cake]

It just makes the national champs look like they pulled they're shorts up really high!

 

[davidsonduke]

That Tudor logo right through the Danish cross is one of the few times I've seen that done that looks appropriate.

I don't like the logo on the shoulder, although you could argue that it looks like a silhouette of Hans Christian Andersen.
