Personally one of my favourite threads of the year, so as a proud member of the fashion police i took the honours of starting this one :p

I think the only team that revealed next year's kit is BMC, which will be pretty much the same as this years. The portuguese forum where the pics were posted is currently down so i will try to get them tomorrow

As promised, BMC's 2014 kit. The jersey seems to be identical, but the shorts are a clear improvement over last year's.

They opted for more black as far as we can see, which is the trend in the last years.

They still have Pearl Izumi as clothing manufacter although Gilbert posted more than a pic where he was wearing Assos.:eek:

I still don't understand the concept behind the BMC jersey. Messy patchwork? Torn apart racing kit?

thing is with only one short sponsor name to worry about, the design really should come out much better.

The riders can be identified (along with the sponsor name), but thats about it.

Below average.

Does it always have to have a concept behind? I like it.

it has to have a concept so the so called "fashion designer" can justify their redicilous paycheck

The two kits I've been hoping to change are this one and Ag2R. Its always a letdown when they are the same boring kit that doesn't even look all that good to begin with.

Well, I think it's just plain ugly, but if there were a concept maybe I could see what they're trying to do.

Don't think the BMC kit is that bad. Has a simple design but is a good looking kit overall IMO. I would however have liked to see them change it up more like other teams do. They're one of those teams that sticks with the same design year after year.

I'm starting to realise that, at age 31, I'm beginning to turn into my dad, and all cycling kits should have black shorts, especially if someone's in the yellow/polka dot/etc jersey. Especially polka dot. Mario Cipollini ruined cycling.

How can you not love colour combinations like these?

?

Very interesting, Australian national teams have always been associated with Santini. They've been doing their kits for as long as I can remember.

I have never worn their cycling gear, but their winter line-up is outstanding.
