    I did have to giggle the first time I saw the neekkid Footon kit...
    I think the yellow shoes are Mavics. I know Chris Horner wears them.

    Meanwhile I could swear I posted a comment earlier about how I love George's shorts with the stars on them, but I guess I forgot to hit the submit button? Anyways.

    I like the Sky kits as well. I'm partial to turquoise though...and to the Adidas triple strip thing...so it makes sense.

    I also think that they have the hotest paint jobs on their bikes - I totally want one just for how it looks!

    Yep, Mavic makes them. It's how I told my mom to find Chris Horner in the pack. "Mom, Chris is the one that's always smiling and wearing yellow shoes!" (We were at a race over a year ago and she couldn't tell Chris and Levi apart... until I pointed out the yellow shoes.)

    Edvald Boasson Hagen of Sky and Marcus Burghardt of BMC also wear them. Seems like there is probably one rider from each team that wears them.

    The only other one I can think of is Tim Johnson, but he races for United Healthcare (and Cannondale-Cyclocross World) and clearly isn't in the TdF.
