About the design

The Katusha Alpecin team kit for the 2018 season is almost identical to the 2017 version. The sponsors and logo placements remained the same. The design remained unchanged, however, the item that did change was the use of colours.

The shoulders, sleeves and upper chest of the jersey are now an off white, pale blue colour. Last season this section of the jersey was maroon. The sponsors on this section are now rendered in black as opposed to last years white. The lower half of the jersey is now maroon as opposed to last season's red colour. The sleeve and leg ends are now red instead of white. The bibshorts remain the maroon colour. The Alpecin logo remains across the chest of the jersey dividing the shoulders and bottom portion of the jersey.

The kit this season is once again manufactured by the team's own brand Katusha. This season's kit is more reminiscent of the 2017 Tour de France edition of the Katusha kit.
