Tinkoff-Saxo's is definitely the nicest jersey so far, its different and it catches the eye. (Which wouldn't be hard given the amount of black kits so far. Just noticed some of the former national champions such as Breschel/Roche etc don't have their bands on their sleeves, Rogers was the only one last year. Any idea's why?

So far I would rank the Top 5 kits as

1: Tinkoff-Saxoo
2: Lotto-Bellisol
3: Ag2r (Ok the brown isn't great but its different and stands out)
4: Europcar
5: FDJ

Really nice Tinkoff jersey, but they really ****ed up that Danish national jersey though.

Think of how those brown shoulders will look from the front during a race. It will largely be "another dark jersey". Lampre does it much better.

Designers trying to come up with something new. Its like aiming to beat Bach in classical music. Not worth attempting to better it. Just join the party. No shame in copying something that works well.

At this point I'm just cheering for any kit with bright colours.

Exactly. And allthough the Saxo-Tinkoff kit isn't the most beautiful it has a more traditional cycling kit look to it. They will certainly standout which is great!

Allthough they should've just used a red jersey with a single white cross it's still a lot better than just a small danish flag on your arms.

I dont like it. Horrible. I do like the bit with the very visible rider name on the back though. But overall its bad and to SKYish.

Someone at IAM must be a Dundee fan:

No problem picking out the Saxo boys :) Best new kit so far! I love how the blue gets darker as it travels down the body.

I know Riis is no longer team owner, but they could have used that eagle again to break up the field of blue and yellow as opposed to the hard white line. They won't sell a whole lot of these, but it won't be hard to pick out Tinkoff Saxo this year.

+1 to that.

I'm guessing there is enough blue to mean they won't need an alternative jersey for the Tour?

I think (or at least I hope) they do need one, unless the back is completely blue.

I sure dont hope so (unless they come up with an ONCE-like solution), and I really dont hope the back is to blue (we got enough dark kits already).

Anyways, Cooke approves (0; :

I think @offtinkoffsaxo 's new kit looks pretty cool.

Saxo is not as nice as last year but still better than most of the boring trash we've seen. Wonder what the back is like? Should be similar I guess

Maybe he'd like to see his client Horner wear it?

I like Saxo very much, not quite as good as last year, but still a very good looking jersey (especially when placed next to the current crop of WT jersey's). Glad to see them keeping some color in the peloton. :)

Like Morkov's jersey as well, and how it is all red color scheme. Makes it stand out from the traditional team jersey.

The jersey is growing on me, definitely like it a lot more after seeing a few different shots. I just wish it wasn't see-through :p that will keep me from buying it.

In that last shot it looks a bit like a safety vest, or a uniform that road construction workers would wear.... which is good cause you want to be visible when you're out on the road
