The Trek kit looks cheap, low quality, and boring. If that's their brand profile, great job.

I really wonder who Ok'd the Kit's design and if the riders ever get to express their opinion, because is just horrendous to have to wear something so visually unappealing.....

Like hrotha said, something you'd buy in decathlon. I never thought I'd pine for the fricking Leopard-Trek kit.

Everybody wants a nice, slick, corporate looking jersey, so that they can look "professional". But this doesn't even look like that, because it's so basic it looks cheap.

At least they surely can't screw up the national champions' kits worse than Leopard and Radioshack though, as even a Movistar-esque three-bands-across-the-middle will look OK, like a bargain basement version of Pozzato's black Катюша kit.

LEOPARD TREK jersey was avant garde. Bold. Artsy. Three things that have never been said about you. :p ;) :D

I am also hopeful for the national champions jerseys, since this jersey has no design they should not be limited to tiny stripes like with Radioshack. I am hoping full-on flag jerseys

10 bucks on Trek pulling a Cervelo and going white for the second half of the season.

Either than that, awful kit. It's just like hrotha said, this is the type of kit you would buy to go on your average training ride.

Do they even have a white panel on the back like Sky moved to ? (just to reduce the heat absorption in the summer)

Oleg doesnt like the Trek kit :p

Oleg Tinkov ‏@olegtinkov 58s
“@PedalingPA: I think @olegtinkov is tweeting his disdain for the new Trek kits, but I can't read Russian.” Trek kit indeed nasty

Tnkoff-Saxo better come up with something nice after that :D

Just a shame they didn't think about exuding visibility so that viewers can identify their riders. I look forward to the early season, races with 15 teams of riders all in black shorts, with identical black rain jackets taking away the only shred of hope fans have of identifying them. Nice one.

Anyway, the Luxembourg jersey is what a classy national champions' kit should be. The Croatian kit looks like a harlequin wearing a tanktop.

I'm in tatters again.

Going to be a nightmare for the Eurosport commentators.

The website kinda sucks too. But they have a really beautiful tribute to Wouter Weylandt on it, made me sad to see all those riders 3 years later and then Weylandt who should have been part of it....

New website is up.

Apparently they put some serious thought into those black and white stripes:



http://www.trekfactoryracing.com/news/it-takes-team

LOL at that article. :D

And we wanted something that was different from all the other teams.

All black is different from all the other teams? In case they hadn't noticed, all black is kinda become a pretty common trend in cycling kits.

For more visibility, we added the white sleeve and white ring at the bottom of the shorts, on opposite sides.

I'm sure a couple white bands will do a ton to make the Trek riders easy and simple to spot...not. :rolleyes: Why not just use a distinctive and colorful design? Be a lot easier to spot then black IMO.
