THE NEW JERSEY
The first big news for 2025 is the new jersey produced by Pissei and the new team colours.
Design concept, draws from the unique formations of the UAE’s desert sands, while the gradients of dark blue, reflect the deep waters surrounding our nation. This palette connects the kit to the UAE landscape and aligns with a more corporate identity. Additionally, in line with the country’s sustainability focus for 2024 and 2025, we aim to develop our campaign for the 2025 jerseys, the UAE Tour, and the Tour de France around this important theme.
We aimed to create an inspiring design combining key elements with a refined and distinctive aesthetic. The kit also carries a touch of retro flair while maintaining an incredible, modern appeal. It is more than just a design—this kit symbolizes our ambition, a winning mindset, and our readiness to conquer the challenges ahead.
