Ick. R4R, your link says the uniforms are supposed to be gold but they sure as heck don't read on camera as gold - more like a flesh color which makes the athletes look buck nekkid & sporting reaaalllly bad tats. That's supposed to be a big footprint 'tatoo' on the front for FootOn I guess? Not exactly subtle.

The uniforms were designed by Dario Uzay who is a fine artist rather than a clothing designer and it shows. He shouldn't give up his day job anytime soon, that's for sure.

the Footon-Servetto kits (do they call them kits?) are beyond ugly. - lainie

My mom calls them "costumes". She watched the prologue and first stage in the Netherlands because we used to live there (albeit up the coast from Rotterdam.) Her favorite team "costume" is Astana (ACK!), but I set her straight that we'll both be rooting not so much for anybody in particular to win the TdF this year, but for Contador to LOSE!

Per wiki - “The team’s current sponsors include a US bicycle manufacturer and an Italian wardrobe company.”

Scary.

My first thought when I saw lainie’s pic was ‘those guys in the middle must be sporting the goalie’s kit”. LOL, guess I’ve been watching too much World Cup!
