There are all the new national champions jerseys at the Tour de France and Giro d'Italia Women

With the start of two of the biggest races of the season – the men's Tour de France and Giro d'Italia Women – just days away, all the squads have been announced, and now teams and riders are unveiling their fresh new kits for the biggest race of the year.

Some squads, including UAE Team Emirates-XRG, Visma-Lease A Bike, and Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe, are going with brand-new looks this July, while a host of riders around the peloton will be showing off their new national champions' jerseys, too.

A total of 12 road national champions and nine time trial champions will be racing the Tour this year, bringing a splash of extra colour to the 184-man peloton. In the Giro, there are set to be 11 road champions in action, and 14 in the time trial.

We've spotted a handful of them already, including Belgian champion Tim Wellens (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) and Lidl-Trek's Quinn Simmons, who won the US title back in May.

The German champion's jersey of Georg Zimmermann (Intermarché-Wanty) has raised some eyebrows with its minimal design, while other riders – including Samuel Watson (Ineos Grenadiers), Iván Romeo (Movistar), and Danny van Poppel (Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe), and Jhonatan Narváez (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) showed off their new jerseys at the Tour team presentation in Lille.

Elsewhere, Australian champions Luke Durbridge (road), Luke Plapp (time trial) and Brodie Chapman (time trial) have been racing in their colours since January.

A host of other notable names have yet to unveil their national colours, including Remco Evenepoel (Belgian time trial champion) Elisa Longo Borghini (Italian road), Filippo Ganna (Italian time trial), Lotte Kopecky (Belgian time trial), and Marlen Reusser (Swiss time trial).

We'll be keeping an eye out for the remaining 40 national champions' jerseys set to appear at this year's Tour and Giro Women as they come in and updating this article when we do spot them. Check below for the full gallery and keep your eyes peeled for new kits!
