The next season’s kit will not only offer the team a new, refreshed image, but also some key features that best represent the team’s spirit. Among many details, the jersey contains a line on the back of each kit that has been part of the team’s uniform since 2010, when the team first started racing.
Also, the new kit contains the data pattern which is used to record all of Team Sky’s titles and it is now updated with the team’s 2017 victories.
The leading performance clothing in the peloton
Team Sky Principal, Sir Dave Brailsford, while introducing the new kit for 2018, said: “We initially changed to white jerseys for the Tour de France last summer, and it was the feedback from riders and the response from our fans that inspired us to go white for the 2018 season.
