PROS – TotalEnergies and Sportful team up to present 2022 kits

The TotalEnergies team has just unveiled its new kits and has partnered with the Sportful brand for the occasion. TotalEnergies is one of the teams that has generated a lot of buzz in the off-season with the arrival of Peter Sagan, the Slovak champion who needs no introduction. True to form, he brought his close guard with him, including his colleagues and friends M. Bodnar and D. Oss, not to mention his brother Juraj, all from the Bora Hansgrohe team. In addition to these “stars,” the team is welcoming two riders from Vendée U, the professional team’s reserve club: A. Jousseaume and S. Dujardin.

Sportful will thus be the technical partner of Team TotalEnergies for the next two years, continuing to equip three-time world champion Peter Sagan.

The Italian brand joins the project as a technical partner for clothing and equipment. It has created a new design for the French team using products from the Strada collection. Color will be an important detail of the new Team TotalEnergies kit; an aspect that will go beyond the jersey and bib shorts. Even “secondary” products such as underwear and accessories will be team-colored elements to add to the overall equipment.

The models used by the riders are already well-known and proven in the peloton, such as the Bomber jersey, the LTD bib shorts (developed for aero and long rides), and the Fiandre line jackets, in an original white color, an essential piece for cold and wet weather.

Statements

“While from a technical point of view as a supplier, we will continue to provide the clothing widely appreciated by the world’s best athletes, the start of this new chapter with the TotalEnergies team required close collaboration to project the brand’s identity through graphic design. We approached this project with seriousness and enthusiasm, and the result is exciting for both our brands. This is just the first of many projects we will carry out together.” – Devis Barchi (Sportful Manager)

“I am very proud that Sportful and the Cremonese family have trusted the ambition of our team, and I sincerely thank them for the professional attitude they have shown. The technologies brought by this prestigious brand will allow us to be even more true ambassadors of tomorrow’s world.” – Jean-René Bernaudeau
