The colour is fine, but the styling is suspect..

Not bad

The jerseys might be a tad sparse but the bibs actually look quite nice in the dark brown.

Face it, dark shorts look way better on men. Light colors can get pretty embarrassing and some are just plain awful. Especially when not worn by a pro cyclist with 5% body fat. It's also nice that they minimized the across-the-**** writing.

Ugly Kit Joe

My nominees for best and worst kits at the 09 Tour . . .

Best:
Caisse d' Epargne (classy, mostly black shorts, cool pattern)
Francaise de Jeux (yes the shorts are white, but what a nice design overall)

Worst:
Euskaltel Euskadi (shorts look like a**-less chaps)
Lampre, Garmin, Liqugas (awful shorts)

And a special thanks to Columbia/HTC for getting rid of the cartoonish six-pack abs on their jerseys.
