SD Worx-Protime unveil special anniversary kit for 2025 Tour de France Femmes

Team SD Worx-Protime will line up at the Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift 2025 in a specially designed jersey to celebrate the 80th anniversary of their title sponsor, SD Worx.

Rather than their usual colours, the riders will race in a unique edition of the kit featuring the logos of 80 key clients of the HR and payroll firm. Each clientโ€™s logo has been integrated into the design as a symbolic gesture of the partnership and mutual growth shared between company and customer.

โ€œItโ€™s fantastic that weโ€™re able to honour SD Worxโ€™s 80th anniversary with this special jersey at the most important race of the year,โ€ said Anna van der Breggen. โ€œSD Worx is one of the most loyal sponsors in the womenโ€™s peloton and weโ€™ll do everything we can to celebrate this milestone with success in the Tour de France Femmes.โ€

The new kit will be worn from the start in Brittany on 26th July by the full seven-rider squad: Van der Breggen, Blanka Vas, Elena Cecchini, Femke Gerritse, Lorena Wiebes, Lotte Kopecky and Mischa Bredewold. As national champions, Kopecky (world), Wiebes (Europe), and Vas (Hungary) will continue to wear their respective leaderโ€™s jerseys, while the rest of the squad will wear the anniversary kit.

Team manager Erwin Janssen noted the significance of the moment for the team and the sport. โ€œIn just four years, the Tour de France Femmes has become the most important race in womenโ€™s cycling and has fundamentally changed the sport. Weโ€™re proud to be part of it, especially with a special kit marking SD Worxโ€™s 80th year.โ€

SD Worx joined the team as a partner in 2020 and became the title sponsor in 2021. CEO Kobe Verdonck highlighted the collaborative nature of the campaign: โ€œJust as a cycling team draws strength from each rider, we draw strength from every customer relationship. There are many parallels between cycling and business โ€“ endurance, teamwork, and shared ambition. This jersey is a tribute to that connection.โ€

The team enter the race as one of the major contenders across both the GC and sprint stages, with the likes of Kopecky and Wiebes expected to be among the most visible figures in this yearโ€™s edition – now in special colours that mark more than just sporting excellence.
