I stopped taking it seriously after looking up the thread for the 2019 route, one of the best TDF routes (and, if it had run to completion, races) in recent memory, and seeing people call it a "three week Tour de L'Avenir route" and incredibly easy.

I like this much more than past Cofidis jerseys. This is a genuinely interesting design, with the pinstriping on the arms, the vertical Cofidas logo, and the two-tone red. I like.Decathalon leaked the Cofidis kit on their site, and it's a looker.

I'm not easy to please. I do a bit of design work, and I like this clean, modern, minimalist design. I think it works. Of course, I haven't seen the back.You're easy to please. I go back to figure skating.![]()

It is way better than this:

The acid test to me is whether I would choose it as a kit to buy and wear.
Imagine the kits If they were all the same price and quality, without all the sponsor names and logos (or with your club name), but with a generic shape rather than a logo where the logo is more integral to the design (eg Movistar): Maybe some Katherine Hamnett style phrase in the case of Ag2R Citroen.
If all of the kits were in your LBS/preferred internet dealer and at whatever price point in the market you normally shop at, which would you consider? (assume that they have your size and all kits are available for both genders)
I'm assuming none of us needs to buy more than 3 different jerseys a year.
I think I'll have a Kern, a Parkhotel Valkenberg and a Cofidis.

But in avocado?
Seems to be a few tops with white shoulders this year.
Intermarché seems to be the opposite, and it looks terrible (sorry, I will issue an internal reprimand to myself for complaining).

Also, Cofidis have black shorts. It looks really, really good, I think.

A really good example of keep it similar to before but also vastly improveBig upgrade for ISN kit:![]()
Looks like an off the shelf kit you would buy in a bike shop but in a really good way
And to think I am a bit let down to watch Alpecin ride again in the new year in that same old boring and bland design.
