When Vincenzo Nibali and his Bahrain-Merida teammates begin their 2017 seasons at the Vuelta a San Juan in Argentina later this month, they'll have custom Sidi shoes to toe the start line.
The Italian shoemaker unveiled the team's custom "Shots" during Sunday's team presentation at Prince Nasser bin Hamad Al Khalifa's royal palace in Bahrain.

The exclusively designed shoe features the team colours of red and white, which, according to a statement from Sidi, "represents the Bahrain national flag; there is also blue, which represents the island nation nestled between two seas, and of course, there had to be some golden finishes to recall the culture and tradition of the Bahrain Kingdom’s royal household."
As a team sponsor, Sidi's logo will also appear on the team's shoe covers, socks and jerseys.
