New Jerseys - 2024 Season - TeamKits-Maillots-Tricots-Tenues

[Armchair Cyclist]

So Visma have started the unveiling of their TdF kit, maybe by the end of the day they'll have harvested enough email addresses to actually show it properly

Discover the Renaissance

Our unique limited edition Tour de France ’24 jersey

therenaissance.teamvismaleaseabike.com

If noone sends emails, will they have to ride around bare-topped?

Blue and golden:

It reminds me of Astana's jersey last year.

"In the spirit of limitless thinking" might be writing a cheque that the tactical prowess of their DS cannot pay.

And here it is finally...

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

Well what do you know, it turns out that the design on the carpet at the Dog and Drake is characterised and inspired by the spirit of limitless thinking.

 

[Netserk]

I don't expect it to look good in the peloton from a distance. Meh. White helmet doesn't help much.

The Boss and his Bitches

 

[Didinho]

They’ve had better ugly shirts.

 

[MLKarlos]

Blue again

Assuming that the Red Bull jersey will also be blue, the following GC contenders will wear blue at the TdF: Soudal, Lidl, RB, Visma.
Of course like 19 other teams wear blue in addition.

Only GC contenders not wearing blue: INEOS, UAE
….the will shine bright. Their sponsors will love it!

Astana boys finally back to fighting at the front in the mountains at Le tour.

 

[Rackham]

And people complained about the Red Bull jersey.

The Visma shirt looks like the interior tiling of a Turkish bath house.

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

The jersey looks good but it's ANOTHER freaking jersey that is dominated by blue (and white). So annoying trying to distinguish all these in quick situations.
It's even worse if you're watching live along the road, I was at the Giro this year at a mountain stage and it was a mess. You have riders in your sight for about 10-20 seconds and they all look the same.

 

[Potomac]

LMAO at the Visma jersey.

I used to think the argyle themes on Vaughter's teams were the most ridiculous.
Let's hope there is some variation on this Turkish bath house pattern each year.

Visma are fools to go from one of the easiest to spot kits to the group of easily confused with several others when viewing on TV

 

[Rackham]

I don't know what percentage of 'yellow' is tolerated in the Tour but the solution was always staring them in the face for this season anyway (post Jumbo): the color of bees, aka black & yellow stripes.

Maybe with thicker black lines & just a few narrow yellow stripes. They like to call themselves killer bees so why not? The whole renaissance design meanwhile is straight-up pomposity. Probably worse than last year's ride your dreams stuff (with AI Jonas child & his American accent).

 

[Ricco']

The Renaissance
In the spirit of limitless thinking

Makes me think of those t-shirts someone can buy for cheap with some random words put together that doesn't have a cohesive meaning, like "Summer Feel / Blue Yachts Trade Union"

Visma saw Israel and Decathlon have almost the same jersey and said "watch this"

It looks better in sunlight than it does in the publicity photos.

It still looks like a set of curtains from the 70s

Don't get me wrong its a really nice kit. But it's getting ridiculous now with so many teams with dark blue kits.

 

[Unchained]

Does this mean Astana and Visma are merging?

I personally like it, Vismas jersey, still due to the ornamented nature i understand on why a modern eye could complain about things like lacking nothingness. That is not being exactly minimal or flat ... predominant design. On the other hand and if they will struggle then they can always say something like well, it's a bunch of grandmas on the bike anyway.

P.S. As for the statue symbolism, already cracking. Still i like it and hopefully more teams takes this aspect as seriously in the future, as Visma does.

Couldn't disagree more. Banal, meaningless and pretentious: anyone involved should be ashamed of themselves.
