I know there was an old thread about the best looking pro team jerseys, but what about this year's bunch? I really liked the 2004 US Postal uniform, but the new Discovery Channel one seems pretty bland to me. Likewise, the old red Saeco uniform looked pretty good, but the new Lampre-Caffita one is again nothing special.
Can't pick a best looking one out of this year's Protour teams, but the worst ones in my opinion would be Illes-Balears. Most of the others haven't changed too much. I guess the blue/white Quickstep jersey would be my best of a bad bunch.

Other opinions?
I like Phonak - was able to get one fairly cheap ($40US) back when they were temporarily kicked out of the pro tour. I also like Fassa Bortolo. Neither has changed much for '05.
Good link. Having perused the pics, I reckon Domina Vacanze is pretty tacky (palm trees?). If T-Mobile wasn't pink (or magenta), their jersey would be my pick - almost retro and understated. But just not in pink.
liquigas also look great in the flesh. im very impressed. havent found a full zip jersey yet in these colours
i think there are too many blue jerseys out there now. discovery, fassa, quickstep, lampre, gerolsteiner, liberty seguros... theres prob more ive left out

Big second to all this. I love the Lotto look. And all the blue, geez! Too much.
Someone also mentioned the old ONCE jerseys; I agree. And I really loved the old Mapei jerseys, the ones with the paint chips.
T-Mobile is easy to identify, but I'm sorry, it's not magenta. It's pink.

Yep, too much blue out there - it gets boring. Geez, you'd think the teams/designers could be a bit more adventurous in their color schemes. Doesn't have to be neon green or whatever....

Davitamon-Lotto ruined things by adding the orange. Discovery are nice from a distance...so you can't see the scales! Domina Vacanze reminds me of some tacky 70's wallpaper!
