Tour de France 2025 jerseys: where to buy, what they mean & more

The 2025 Tour de France yellow jersey is worn every day by the leader of the general individual classification and bestowed on the overall winner on the Champs-Élysées.

Also known as the Maillot Jaune, a symbol of excellence, prestige and victory, the yellow jersey is beyond the reach of all but the most well-rounded riders - those who can hold their own on the plains, in the mountains and in time trials.

Created in 1953 on the occasion of the Tour de France’s 50th anniversary, the green jersey rewards the rider who is leading the points classification each day. Points are awarded at stage finishes and the intermediate sprints in line stages.

It owes its colour to its first partner, La Belle Jardinière, a chain of clothing stores established in the 19th century. This symbol of explosivity, passion and speed is typically held by the sprinters. You only have to look at the identity of the winners to be convinced of this, in particular the Slovak Peter Sagan, who has won the Green Jersey seven times.

Symbol of the mountains, of a rider pushing beyond their limits and of courage, the red polka dot jersey is awarded to the Tour de France’s leader of the best climber classification.

Although this classification was introduced in 1933, its symbol, the polka dot jersey, appeared in 1975, which was also the year the Tour first finished on the Champs-Élysées and was won by Bernard Thévenet. It owes its appearance to track racing specialist Henri Lemoine, who competed between the 1930s and 1950s.

Although the white jersey first appeared in 1968 to reward the leader of the combined classification, which was based on the overall points and mountains standings, it wasn’t until 1975 that it began to symbolise the future and youth of the Tour de France peloton.

A leader in waiting, the wearer of the white jersey, is the best placed in the overall standings who is under the age of 26. The Italian Francesco Moser was the first winner of the young rider classification and illustrated perfectly his philosophy since he went on to become world champion and the victor of the 1984 Giro, and claimed 10 Classics, including three victories in Paris-Roubaix.

The Dash cycling jersey is a tribute to the 1975 Tour de France, a year that marked a moment of great national pride: the first-ever Arrivée on the Champs-Élysées, won by Frenchman Bernard Thévenet.

Thévenet not only claimed the yellow jersey but also ended the dominance of the legendary Eddy Merckx, triumphantly entering Paris and etching his name into cycling history.
