We are starting very early this year.
Lotto-Soudal/Soudal-Lotto (whatever you wanna call it) just presented their jersey for next year.

How is that "continuous name change" thing going to work exactly (I read it, just... forgot…)
And is it even allowed? I thought you were allowed to ride with special jerseys (and possibly under a different name) for one race each year. (Guess it's different when a team change name permanently…)

Guess I'll just call them 'Lotto'.

In Belgian races they will ride as Lotto Soudal, in other races as Soudal-Lotto.
I don't think its allowed to change your official team name, that's why it stays Lotto-Soudal officially. They just want to give more exposure to Soudal because they're paying as much as Lotto from now on. Today they also announced that another sponsor will be paying 50% more (their logo CAPS will be on the back of the pants from next year on) and there are rumours they will announce a 3rd big sponsor (Touring) in September. I think they finally realized they need a bigger budget to stay in the WT comfortably.

It's a nice kit for sure. But I prefer bright combinations with red for this team, because it's in their DNA.

Womens again better than mens for Trek. Lottos new kit is really nice its similar enough to be recognisable and has a beautiful clean classic design. Got 2 red dark and white so far so hopefully no one ruins it by doing more

I still like the women's Trek kits better than the men's.

I like that Lotto is keeping the two kits very close so they are easily recognized as from the same team.
 
I think its awful. More fade and whats the point of putting the hand logo so far down where the numbers will cover them

Maybe it's because of the template used. The hands can be on the sides of the jersey (as I think the Alcatel-Lucent logo will be) and if that's the case they could be placed in a nice way, giving the impression that they are holding the numbers.

Doesn't look too flash, and won't stand out in the peloton but I will reserve my final judgement until I see a rider in the finished product.

Arkea Samsic riding Canyon bikes next year. Paint Job looks decent if this is the final colour scheme

This is the colour scheme for Warren Barguil, as French champion.
The rest of the team will likely be on different colour bikes...

Thumbs up for Total - Direct Energie. That team has always had quite decent-looking kits all the way back to the Bonjour days.
 
I quite like the Soudal Lotto one, but the placement of the Soudal logo within the red part of the shirt in the Lotto Soudal shirt, is just plain stupid.

It's a nice kit for sure. But I prefer bright combinations with red for this team, because it's in their DNA.
I guess you have a short memory, or are not that old. DNA my ass.

Does your wife like it when you go out shopping with her, or does she prefer you stay at home and not get involved? :blush:

Direct Energie kit looks nice. Shouldn't get lost in the peloton with the way they've done the colors.

Nice work by Total - Direct Energie.
The epaulettes stand out but don't alter the identity.
