A new UCI rule has obliged some teams to change their jersey designs for the 2025 season, to avoid looking too much like the leaders' jerseys at the Grand Tours. 

The likes of EF Education-EasyPost and Visma-Lease a Bike have often changed their colours for the men's and women's Giro d'Italia and Tour de France to avoid being the same as the race leader's pink and yellow jersey. The new UCI rule also covers the other classifications in Grand Tours, such as the green points jersey at the Tour de France and the usually white best young rider jersey.
