I'm sure it's been said, but the bucket hat and Grinch shirt is a winning combo followed by EF, BORA, FDJ, and INEOS.
Great review!
Top three: 1) AG2R: Stark representation. Proves that a minimalist theme with judicious use of colours is always more outstanding than overly busy kits. 2) Bora: That kit means business. Sharp angles and great use of colours. The designer of that jersey is saying that it's okay to mix creativity with a message and intelligence that indicates Bora can solve all kinds of problems. 3) Grinch Pajamas: Irreverent and fun. Reminds viewers of EF Giro kits. Bad choice of model.
This confirms that Lanterne is a real one since he has the same taste in kits as me
Nice fun review of this season's team kits. Would like to see another similar one, in a future episode, for the 2023 team bikes. 👏👏
I love cycling but compared to other sports kits are just spandex advertising boards
Cofidis , UAE, Trek & Arkea look like a generic Chinese bulk club kit base design, not much going on there beyond cut n pasting logos and far too boring and bland without any imagination whatsoever. Groupama's look like a junior designer was let loose in Word 95 clip art and Wanty is clearly paying homage to 90s geocities homepage about some conspiracy theory somewhere in an Amercian desert. Bora & Jumbo look more cooporate than a briefcase on an aeroplane and Trek only saved by at least being a bicycle company. Movistar's & Astana's is nice and stealthly and modern as is Bahrain, Ineos, EF & Citroen all looking like at least a real designer took care of the designing bits. Favourite is Citroen and Ineos, so maybe the gas guzzling companies do better design or can at least afford it?
No joke my favourite video of the cycling calendar
EF as always
No WT but Lotto-Dstny could have done so much better!
Jumbo has the best jerseys
Wanty is a disease
Wow just when I thought the dark navy couldn’t possibly spread any more…
I have a pissei without a zipper. Best shirt I have ever had. (Although it does not look nice.) But – pea-say. Nothing to do with a toilette break. I liked the old Cannondale, or the old SunWeb, or the old Peugeot.
Intermarche should have went with just all neon yellow instead of the white, shades of Team ADR, Greg Lemond 1989
"They wanted to look like a struggling Italian Pro Conti Team" LMFAOO!
My favourite is the dark blue one
The triumphant return of the LR bucket hat!
The hat is back!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hahaha those comment on the Safety Jogger PNG image 🤭🤣
anyone noticing this guys voice is weirdly similar to the clown Durianrider !
Trek 😍
The worst kit was the one on the left. My eyes…….
favo groupama, least soudal QS
The PNG files 😂💀
Always love hearing you and Benji!
Ciao from NYC
For 2024 Bora, EF, Astana, and JV keep their colors; all the other teams draw one color from a chapeau and must use that color as the primary color for the kit. Hip, hip, hooray – in 2024 we can easily distinguish teams in the peloton!
didn't do thee relegated teams? shady lol
EF has always looked good to me because you can point them out in the peloton very quickly.
EF consistently have the best kit around. The rest of these are trash, absolutely embarrassing
seems like a lot of teams couldn't decide so they went with one scheme on the right and another on the left 🤔
Astana again is the coolest this year. Movistar, EF, then Bahrain are next. AG2R is the worst again. They have to pay riders a 10% premium to be seen wearing brown shorts.
Movistar will be very recognizable from an over head view, with that big M on it, and the Cofidis kits are mad sharp and clean, but Trek has screwed the back up so bad, it's just awful, I have to give that mess of a jersey a thumbs down..👎🏽
Bike Exchange absolute shit kit since the Mitchelton Scott days
The Groupama FDJ one is perfect
That is a like straight off the bat just for that shirt.
Feels like I'm the only person that likes the wanty kit
svg not png 😉
Best: Cofidis and EF
Worst: Bahrain and INEOS
Why not make all the teams chose colours at the start or the year so they are not all the same.
Clutch. Paddy's new favourite word.
Mate… seeing your hat – shirt-shade combo…. It does not really transfer any fashion competence 😂😂😂
Pissei was started by Andrea Tafi. They made Richie Porte's amateur Italian team kit. I have 4 sets at home, interested?
LR right on EF X Palace kit. That pic was wrong, though.
I still like on the BORA kit, that it has this red stripe around the belt. Therefore, it is always easy to recognize a BORA rider, even though with B&B Hotels in the race or something with similar green.
a lot of these are still stuck in pre 2k where they just put logos on a shirt with no regards for composition what so ever biggest offenders are BH, IM, soudal the rest have some real boring ones like MS, Treck, UAE just take a hint from AG2R, Arkea, sky or EF keep it simple and clean but also have a recognizable component
The "M" logo on the Movistar jersey has always been so sharp. Ineos is a beauty. The EF socks are downright goofy. Those AG2R Citroën brown shorts have always looked so nasty – they need to go – Ben deserves better.
I like to call EF's kit this year "we're going to match every pink accessory on the market today." Now if only we could get a "shades of blaze chartreuse" for all the hi-viz gear too
Haha the EF socks cracked me up
What about the lotto dstny 2023 kit? I think the AG2R kit is really classy…
