    I really like 4, but decided it was too dark for the road, so voted for 5 instead.

    At least Astana and Saunier will no longer have to argue about who has the ugliest kit in pro-racing!

    (Entry 4 looks like what the Disco team would have worn to the annual Lance Armstrong Golf Classic.)

    I voted for 5 as well. Quite tempted to vote for the Brit who made the shortlist but decided that was just a bit too xenophobic.

    Voted for 5, best of a bad bunch IMO....

    Question is, are there matching knee length sock and post-race matching golf-sweaters? Might go well with WASPy Americans, but even the Germans couldn't come up with something quite so naff.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    #1 looks like knitwear.

    Had to vote for it! :twisted:
  • #1 for me too!

    They should definitely design a "plus fours and wool stockings" version for those early season races like Paris-Nice! And a post race sleeveless sweater etc.

    ...and worn with a Maurice Garin style handlebar moustache.
  • I love them all, and for those interested in Argyle Twin6 has pictures of their 08 jersey in that style on their site now.

    Voted for no.3
    It's the least Argyllish .
  • i went for 4 since it has managed to almost eleminate the argyle look :lol: 2 would be my second choice
  • #2 for me, sad as it sounds i'd actually buy that top.

    Yes, that's sad. :wink:

    I voted for #3, but I still wouldn't buy it!

  • Number 4 for me, although may be a bit dark in the peleton?
  • 5 for me, although 3 nearly crept in. A bit too golf-like though.

    I voted for number 1, purely because I'd find it funny to see that monstrosity in the peleton.

    I bet Millar's voting for it too as he won't have to wear it.

    (No 3's probably the actual best one)

  • Millar will have to wear it Vaughters said in an interview in the comic that they were looking at how to incorporate his national jersey with the argyl.

    Any of those jerseys with a spattering of red, white and blue is going to look awful! Can't wait to see that.
