Are These the Ugliest Cycling Jerseys You've Ever Seen?


As you know, BicyclingHub.com makes a point of only selling beautiful, high-performance cycling jerseys, but that doesn't mean really ugly jerseys aren't out there. We've all seen photos of cyclists rocking kits we would never be caught in. Last Thursday we asked which jerseys make you cringe when you see them—and you certainly delivered.

And so, without further ado, here are some of the ugliest of the ugly when it comes to cycling jerseys:
The kit that inspired this story.  Long before women from Bogota were wearing gold.


A paler version of the kit above—but just as ugly.
Scottish legend Graeme Obree rode for this team in the 1990s
We are not sure this jersey would make the list were it not for this picture floating around of Laurent Brochard and his mullet
What is the red thing in the center of the jersey?  A chicken or some other kind of bird?  We aren't quite sure.
The team signed 2008 Tour de France winner Carlos Sastre who was never heard from again
Many said this was this jersey was their least favorite



The jury is still out on the Mapei jersey.  Do you know of an uglier cycling jersey we missed, let us know in the comments.

Or maybe you've seen too much ugly already and you're ready for something beautiful? Check out our collection of cycling jerseys for men and women.

You really need to get a photo of the Ironclad kit from a few years ago, creamsicle colored... it was questionable at best!

Just received this jersey in today, and I really like the look and feel of it and it seems to be a good quality jersey for an exceptional price. Depending on the cut of
Corset cycling Jersey, I am either a medium or large, and usually only large if it is cut for racers which I am not. The large is too baggy around my torso, which is disappointing since this is such a great value jersey.
