New Jerseys - 2015 Season - TeamKits-Maillots-Tricots-Tenues-and-Exotics

[Vesica]

One of the best kits this year from Giant-Alpecin imo. Really like it. Normally I'm not that much into so much sponsors on it, but here it is nicely done.

Best shirt of the year, as always, AG2R

Bianchi and Lotto-Jumbo did a bad job on their colours...it's not that hard:

They differ from sky enough not to cause too much confusion.

It seems the 2015 WorldTour peloton will have a decently diverse palette. 2 black jerseys (if it is indeed true Trek will be predominantly white), 2 red ones, 2 yellow, 2 turquoise, 2 dark blue, 2 white-red-blue, 2 white-on-top, and then there's good old Lampre.

Really, I see Trek, Giant, Sky, Lampre, IAM, Greenedge, Movistar, Lotto, all with a big part of their jersey (>50%) dark

 

[LaFlorecita]

My top 15 WT jerseys (Cannondale and Lampre not yet revealed I think):

1. Tinkoff-Saxo: hallelujah fluo! The bright blue diaper isn't too great, but the rest is awesome.
2. AG2R: classy as always
3. FDJ: preferred the blue version but still quite good
4. Katusha: growing on me - the fluo yellow is not too bad and the design looks good
5. IAM: quite classy, my favorite dark kit
6. Lotto-Soudal: the red should have been way brighter, but not bad
7. Etixx-Quickstep: big improvement, like the bright blue, and I am willing to forgive the black shoulders because it'll make it easier to tell them and Astana apart
8. Astana: nice color, but a boring design
9. Sky/Movistar: shared 9th place, both classy kits but too dark for my liking
11. BMC: more red this year, so a better jersey
12. Orica-GreenEdge: no real changes, an okay jersey, but that's it
13. Giant: black, and boring, but not the worst jersey
14. Trek: the white shoulders make this jersey better than last year's, but still, it is so boring and bland
15. Lotto-Jumbo: what a monstrosity, black lower half, bland barf yellow shoulders, pot helmets in a slightly different, brighter shade of yellow and the ridiculous combo with those Bianchi bikes... ugh

Your man Sep Vanmarcke rode the classics on a full celeste bike, when he still had a green kit to match. Did you notice? Of course not, once the season starts, nobody cares.

Actually the helmets are a lot worse than the kit-bike combo and so is the horrible transition from yellow to black sleeves. Luckily they don't wear long sleeves very often though, but it doesn't change that they look like clowns right now

Even Sep looks bad, then you know you completely messed things up.

I'm really trying to see something positive in that picture, but I can't.

Meh, I think you have your Flemish glasses on. It's not that bad (and I'm allergic to celeste).

To each his own, I guess. I think this bike is fugly.

 

[Netserk]

Yep, it can definitely work with those two colours

Not a huge fan of retro kits, even more so for an actual pro team, but the 2014 Team Raleigh is a nice homage to TI-Raleigh days in 70/80s. Looks like they even took the team photo at the same location too which is a nice touch.

For a black jersey the Giant kit came out pretty good. But its still black.

 

[ILovecycling]

giant jersey is pretty good imo,I dont like black,but this is rather good.

I expect the Cannondale-Garmin kit will be presented tonight (Jan 7)

[Dazed and Confused]

Raleigh kit looks good, even buyable.

And agree with some, the Giant design is ok besides overuse of black and white (more a general peloton problem).

And drop the yellow helmet ffs.

According to IAM its blue:

So the most improved jersey title goes to.. Drapac ?

According to this site, this is the 2015 Cannondale-Garmin kit!

I wouldn't put any trust in that: the same site has a Giant-Alpecin jersey that is red with a white chest.

Its not. They will be Cannondale Garmin, not Garmin Cannondale. Plus the shoe sponsor will be Mavic not Sidi. The team have also been talking about Green Argyle.

In addition to what was posted before, this is 100% based on a fantasy shirt made for Pro Cycling Manager (PC-game).

Giant are every bit as bland and corporate as I said before.

It's a kit that should shift units, because it looks nice and it's nondescript enough to be wearable, but it's dull and uninteresting in the pack.

 

[samhocking]

I thought it was pretty obvious it wasn't the 2015 Cannondale Garmin with Sharp still emblazoned on the shorts lol!

Couldn't agree more, bland, been done too many times already, and just ads more black to the peloton. The small bits of red doesn't save it for me.

Blacks becoming so prevalent in team jersey's I'm going to adopt the mantra "if it's black it's crap."

I adopted that mantra a while back

Dunno, if discounted enough by the end of the year the jersey might be useful:
