The newly designed jersey features the Yorkshire rose, the names of each host town, the Tour de Yorkshire logo and a distinctive Y pattern. In addition to the commemorative jersey, we are also designing and producing the podium jerseys for the race winners.
Ed Cowburn, Founder and Head of Design explains the design:
“The design has evolved from the 2015 edition, and the greatest difference is the colour. A darker blue has been added as a nod to the colours of back-to-back champions – Yorkshire County Cricket Club. To celebrate the start and finish towns for each stage, we have created a graphic focussed around a Yorkshire rose that appears subtly on the back of jersey and will feature across the race winners’ jerseys too. The Y pattern inspired by Yorkshire’s textile heritage also features, as it did last year.”
Sir Gary Verity, Chief Executive of Welcome to Yorkshire said:
“The new jersey reflects Yorkshire’s proud sporting heritage and is a superb tribute to this year’s race. Each host town is named on the back and I very much look forward to seeing it being proudly worn by riders across the world.”
