Any brand of kit you ever thought looked an eyesore ?

Raffles

Personally I like the look of more understated kit, as opposed to bright and look at me designs. I really do like the jerseys and bibs that Castelli make as they look understated and just nice to my eyes. Id never buy the Lampre pink & blue kit as that colour scheme does absolutely nowt for me, but that is a personal thing. Are there any kits out there which you think come across as a bit of an eyesore, and do you opt for more conservative designs or the way out ones ?

Yes, any brand of kit other than Rapha looks an eyesore.

you'd have to go a long way to beat footon-servetto's 2010 kit for bad taste

personally i'm a castelli fan too, but i also treasure my cinelli thelma and louise repo jersey (although it's not a match for the one in the film)

I wear the pink and blue lampre kit, im brave

Kingy 123

When i started in 1991 i thought it was cool to look like Indurain so went and bought the full kit.

All i got was people laughing and shouting at me, its only recently that its become acceptable to wear full kit.
One of my worst jackets was the 1992 clas its a real shocker with its bright green and red graphics on white,ive still got it some where.

Some of the Pinarello kit looks awesome imo, the 2010 kit in particular blows me away.

I used to think all the team kits looked so cool and then I saw Rapha and Shutt clothing, and now all the team kits look a bit naff, just varying grades of naffness
