New Jerseys - 2019 Season - TeamKits-Maillots-Tricots-Tenues

[Laplaz]

Not bad. Better than last year for me.

 

[Simurgh]

That SKY kit has got the colors right. I agree, that the stripe on the back should be gone. Because then it would be perfect!

 

[glassmoon]

Liked the white Sky better.
Rompot is nothing special but not bad at all imho

 

[LaFlorecita]

The kit is messing with my brain because I see it as dark blue with lighting from above with the lower 2/3rds in the shadow

It seems a pretty lazy design to be honest but I guess it works.

 

[hrotha]

Pretty, but prettier on a hanger or in isolation than in the peloton, I suspect. Of course, the back ruins it, but that's been true of almost all their jerseys all the way back to 2010.

 

[Koronin]

Glad the Frogger game on the Sky kit is gone. This looks much better.

 

[More Strides than Rides]

Is there a sponsor responsible for the stripe? Or is that just a design thing?

Lazy? I've certainly not seen such a fade on a cycling jersey before, but sure...

Edit: Okay, Movistar have the same this year.

Beautiful Italian design and workmanship from Castelli.
I wonder if Team SKY's other Italian partners, Pinarello
and Kask, will also incorporate a fade? I really hope so.

I think the blue fade is to tie in Team Sky with Sky Racing Team in MotoGP along Sky Ocean Rescue branding which is now on the collar for 2019. This year was a bit of a branding mismatch for Team Sky with white jerseys etc. 2019 will see the whole Sky Ocean Rescue branding come together on both Team Sky and Sky Racing and the reason for the change I assume?

And Astana 2017
Whooow a fade of black to dark blue, I'm sure a team of designers spent 2 weeks working on this idea.

I'm annoyed. They all copied my bottle

 

[Dazed and Confused]

There is nothing original about Team Sky and the new jersey keeps the trend intact.
Dull and business like.

 

[Robert5091]

Things must be quiet if we're arguing about the esthetic qualitites of the new Sky kit. Boo! Narcissist! (training for next year )

 

[Libertine Seguros]

LA in Portugal had the fade almost every year for a decade. I'm pretty sure there was a Liberty Seguros one with a dark blue/light blue fade as well.

I think its ok, mit meh, but in the sea of darkness that has been the peloton in recent years it will at least be visible

 

[hrotha]

Darkness was prevalent seasons ago, more recently everybody seemed to go white and blue.

The Lotto jersey is not ugly or anything, but it's pretty bland.

De Gent will be in every breakaway of every race, so no need to spice things up.

New Katusha-Alpecin kit:

Not really good, just like the team last year

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

Re:

New Katusha-Alpecin kit:

Or, in a version that actually makes the kit visible:

Essentially the same as last year's with the lower part of the torso the same as the shoulders. The raspberry coloured K (yeah, I know it isn't really a K) on the back should be clear enough to avoid confusion with Movistar/Astana.

 

[LaFlorecita]

Like it better than last year's

 

[Alexandre B.]

That’s a very odd jersey-short combination.

 

[Vesica]

Re: New Jerseys - 2019 Season - TeamKits-Maillots-Tricots-Te

The Katusha kit must be one of the worst colour combinations ever. The blue doesn't match with both reds, the bright red of the Alpecin logo doesn't match with the bordeaux red of the shorts. Could have been a very nice kit, if they had chosen the right blue and red.

Disagree. I think the colors match decently. Perhaps not the two shades of red, but the toothpaste shade of blue complements them quite well.
