New Jerseys - 2011 Season - TeamKits-Maillots-Tricots-Tenues-and-Exotics

Garmin kit looks like a blue background and a central black band with white bands above and below. May as well just try and post the photo.

Less like Sky is definitely an improvement.

i guess the blue part is that argile or w/e you guys call it part

I got the email with that pic. I might be in the minority, but I hope that blue area near the bottom is argyle.

Has anybody seen if Spartacus is going to stick to his teams style and just have a band of red with a white cross? I hope not. The way Leopard Trek does national champs' jerseys is pretty lame.

Looks like Coppi's old Bianchi jersey.

The jersey is nice though. I hope they keep the pants like this.

I really hope Leopard don't ruin Cancellara's Swiss jersey like this. The all red Swiss jersey is nice and classy.

Yeah. I really don't like that version of just a small band around the chest. I gotta say I'm a little "Hey, dude! You've won your national championship! Brag a little! Cover yourself in flag. There's no need to be humble!" Or whatever it is riders using that style is trying to do/be...

About the Garmin kit. I've been wondering for a while what this 'argyle' stuff they kept going on about was. Whenever I read something on the Twitter page where they referred to the Garmins as 'the argyle' I was totally "It's black!"

I wonder if the Leopard tiny Lux champions' jersey is a sponsor thing, to keep everybody looking recognisably as Leopard riders, a bit like how Valverde had the very subtle Spanish champions' bands that was clearly still a Caisse d'Epargne jersey, while José Iván Gutiérrez, Luís León Sánchez, Joaquím Rodríguez, Florent Brard and Rubén Plaza all got bright eyesores of jerseys.

This would make some sort of sense if they actually had a name sponsor.

at a "normal" team: yeah, absolutely possible - but at Leopard? There is not even a company behind that Leopard thing and I doubt that Flavio Becca gives them 15 million euro a year just for being a friend of Andys father but doesn't allow them to wear a proper jersey?!

 

[Thomsena]

Can we please stop calling it 'jerseys'. No, seriously.

 

[raddone]

Change the black and grey areas on the shorts, get rid of the saxo logo and voila. Nothing to it. I'm dreaming, right? They'll f@#$ it up.

What is this? A ***edited by mod *** uniform for the "All Blacks" with helmets?
More black anyone?

BMC's look classy. They will blend in a lot but the one colour is plain but simple and nice.

The colour is plain... black. Just what we needed in the current peloton.

BMC's new kits

All black uniform? That's just plain stupid. BMC riders are gonna be 4-5 hotter varmer than the rest of the peleton. Not exactly an advantage...

Even TT-Cervelo changed their mostly black jerseys to white for the summers races.

Dimspace would disagree with that but yes that will make the hot imo.

 

[Wergeland]

Garmin are changing their kit for the Tour de France (And beyond).

Pictures of it due tommorow. Just a blurry picture on their site. Seems predominatly white, with some blue and black.

Finally be able to tell them and sky apart.

The argyle is back. I like it. Liked the black kit too.
The new kit is supposed to be TDF thing only.

 

[Kazistuta]

Since the Garmin-Cervelo picture doesn't show on my PC, here's the new jersey:

I actually like it a lot, shouldn't be hard to distinguish them from other teams now.

EDIT: Wergeland beat me to it

 

[auscyclefan94]

The argyle is back.

 

[euanli]

horrible. much worse.

 

[Ferminal]

Umm, is that BMC's actual road colours too? Or just TT?

Cattle off for some aero testing?

Good to see G-C in white.
