Hilarity! Colombian cycling team step out in the worst sports kit ever

Lol. This is too funny. Colombian female cycling team unveiled their new sports kit over the weekend and it looks like they are all on their periods and those are pads. The poor ladies, cycling in the Giro Toscana this week, probably didn't see anything wrong with their red and yellow kit until it was shared over a 50,000 times on Twitter.

The nude-coloured cloth used around the groin area, giving the ladies camel toe, has caused a lot of debate online. "Worst designed garment of clothing in the history of the human race.” someone wrote

"Extraordinary that someone would design it and even more extraordinary that any woman would wear it!! :-)” Another person wrote.

People are also wondering if it's an innocent oversight by an over-enthusiastic designer or done for publicity for the team. Is this sports kit embarrassing? See another pic below.
