In the cycling world, December means one thing: new kits! That's right, with the start of the racing season now only a few weeks away, all the teams have been revealing their riders, goals and – more importantly – new jersey designs for 2026.
Some designs are just a minor update to the 2025 jersey, whilst some teams will completely overhaul their design and vibe for the new season. Most are somewhere in-between, though, a fresh take on an existing brand identity.
In December, lots of teams like UAE Team Emirates-XRG, Lidl-Trek and SD Worx-Protime showed off their new garb, and others launched over Christmas.
We're now in January, and the new year has seen reveals from Bahrain Victorious and Alpecin-Premier Tech, but several teams are yet to launch their new jerseys, with more announcements coming in the next days and weeks. All should be revealed before the Tour Down Under.
As is customary, we'll bring you our full ranking of the kits later in January – here's a reminder of how the 2025 designs ranked – but for now here is a round-up of all the ones we've seen so far.
Have a favourite, or a least favourite? Drop your opinions in the comments below.
Alpecin-Premier Tech / Fenix-Premier Tech
It's pretty same-but-different for Alpecin and Fenix – their new title sponsor hasn't shaken up the kit too much, as they stick with blue and orange respectively, with just a little extra gradient added to the men's kit (no more fake denim texture).
Bahrain Victorious
A change to a darker look for Bahrain Victorious. As per, the press release explains that the kit is full of symbolism – a subtle 'X' to represent ten years as a team, teal blue reflecting the rusted colours of the ancient Dilmun civilisation, and dashes of beige reflecting the sand of Bahrain.
Canyon-SRAM zondacrypto
Decathlon CMA CGM
Decathlon CMA CGM's jersey is the same vibe but a little different for 2026, adding red to the blue and aquamarine gradient from 2025. And of course the new sponsor CMA CGM (goodbye AG2R La Mondiale, it was a good run) who have apparently added at least €10 million to the team's budget.
EF Education-EasyPost and EF Education-Oatly
After splitting with long-time kit supplier Rapha, EF Education-EasyPost and EF Education-Oatly will race in Assos kit from 2026 onwards, the team announced on January 1. The 2026 kit features a grid pattern over a swirling jersey design while retaining the team's modern colourway of pink and white.
FDJ United-Suez
FDJ United SUEZ first launched their 2026 kit at the Tour de France Femmes to take advantage of the "peak of global attention".
The Gobik kit is designed to "reflect the unseen hours of the sport: training sessions before dawn, rides in the rain, the fear and doubts of a jour sans" while "a vivid halo of light rises on the chest, symbolizing the inner spark that transforms sacrifice into brilliance at the moment of victory".
Groupama-FDJ United

Groupama-FDJ United have a new kit sponsor for 2026 in Bioracer, but if the jersey itself looks familiar that's because it is – the team wore this design during the 2025 Tour de France.

Ineos Grenadiers
The new Ineos kit has certainly turned heads, feature off-white shorts which are quite love and hate (most people seem to hate them).
Jayco AlUla / Liv AlUla Jayco

Lidl-Trek
Lidl-Trek have called their 2026 jersey "the latest version of an icon" which might sound self-congratulatory, but is also true – people love this jersey. This year's design features the classic navy, blue and yellow colours, with some added geometric details.
Lotto-Intermarché
Lotto-Intermarché kept the visual language of the previous Lotto iterations but adding in the Intermarché logo. The dark red will be familiar in the peloton in 2026.
Movistar
Movistar have gone mainly white for their new Gobik kit, with some funky blue accents, true to the team's brand. We would expect this one to be swapped out during the Grand Tours, though, so as not to clash with the best young rider's white jersey.
NSN Cycling Team
NSN Cycling Team, as part of their rebrand away from Israel-Premier Tech, have really spiced up their look for 2026, with a colourful, geometric design.
They the jersey is "inspired by NSN’s home city of Barcelona" (even though they're registered in Switzerland) and encompasses "hints of the Rwanda Imigongo artform as a nod to the team’s ongoing Racing for Change project".
Picnic PostNL

Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe
Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe's new kit is similar to the special edition they wore at the Tour de France in 2025, feature a white base and bright blue stripes.
SD Worx-Protime
SD Worx-Protime have named their kit 'New Dawn' and have gone even more colourful than in previous years, paired with classic black shorts.
"The ‘New Dawn’ kit radiates energy and ambition," says Anna van der Breggen. "This design is colorful, powerful, and unique – exactly how we want to be as a team. I’m looking forward to racing in this jersey and hopefully achieving many successes together as a team."
Soudal-QuickStep / AG Insurance-Soudal
The men's Soudal-QuickStep team have gone for a similar look to 2025, but with added green elements, apparently to boost their visibility on the road.
The women's team AG Insurance-Soudal looks pretty much the same, as the two teams have aligned in branding for the last few years.
UAE Team Emirates / UAE Team ADQ
UAE Team Emirates-XRG are sticking to a theme with their white, black and red kit. The shapes are a little different for 2026, but otherwise, you're not going to have any problem recognising this one in the peloton.
The women's team is also fairly similar to 2025, replicating that white background with a pastel gradient.
Uno-X Mobility
Kit to be revealed
Visma-Lease a Bike
Visma-Lease a Bike have released their race kit for 2026 for their men's and women's teams. The new look aims to remain faithful to the squad's favoured combination of mainly yellow and black, but also develops various new patterns that further highlight and intensify references to the squad's nickname of 'The Bees'.
