Cycling uniforms should feel like a second skin, not look like it.
Unfortunately, for the Colombian women’s cycling team, that was the case at this weekend’s Instituto Distrital de Reacreación y Deporte in Italy. The team’s six cyclists donned uniforms featuring a wide, flesh-toned panel that extended from mid torso to the upper thighs. In other words, they looked exposed.
While those flesh-toned panels aren’t transparent, the coloring is enough to warrant a double take. Needless to say, detractors had an expressive reaction to the unusual new uniforms.
