Looks like all the riders are wearing white longer socks and white shoes.
Does anyone know why the socks are longer and lack of color?
Thanks in advance,

There is a UCI rule on sock length.
Years ago black shoes where common.
The white shoes are the current fashion.

Guess I have to rotate back to my old white DMTs now ;-)

Actually, I wish Diadora still made cycling shoes :-(

will never wear white socks, don't care what the current fad is.

go to any nursing home and check out what the majority of residents have for socks...just sayin'...

Missed Arkea's red Shimano's in the tour this year. At least they tried to be something other than just black or white. And looked good with their kit.

You have a problem with old people, or just old people wearing white sox.

Funny. I always thought people who were participating in sports, gym, wearing black socks looked like dicks.
