LAST UPDATED August 4, 2022

Zwift has many jerseys which you can unlock by entering particular codes. But there is another set of much more coveted temporary jerseys assigned to the fastest male and female riders currently on course.

Sprint Jerseys

Green jerseys are given to the fastest riders on course for each sprint section.

France: Ballon Sprint (both directions), Pavé Sprint (both directions)
Innsbruck: Innsbruck Sprint (both directions)
London: Classique Sprint (both directions)
Makuri Islands: Alleyway Sprint (both directions), Country Sprint (both directions), Castle Park Sprint (both directions), Tower Sprint (both directions), Village Sprint, Railway Sprint
New York: New York Sprint (both directions)
Paris: Lutece Sprint (both directions)
Richmond: Monument Avenue Sprint (both directions)
Watopia: Watopia Sprint (both directions)
Yorkshire: Yorkshire Sprint (both directions)

There are also a few sprint segments which give you something other than a green jersey:

France: Marina Sprint (both directions) gives you an orange jersey
Watopia: Fuego Flats (both directions) gives you a custom Fuego Flats jersey

KOM/QOM Jerseys

Polka dot climber’s jerseys are given to the riders with the fastest time up the course’s big climbs.

The standard white jersey with red polka dots is given for most climb segments:

France: Aqueduc KOM (both directions), Petit KOM
Innsbruck: Innsbruck KOM (both directions)
London: Box Hill KOM, Fox Hill KOM
Makuri Islands: Castle KOM, Rooftop KOM, Temple KOM (both directions)

Standard KOM Jersey (for Watopia Hilly, London’s Box Hill, and others)

There are also some custom KOM jerseys:

France: Ventoux KOM
London: Leith Hill and Keith Hill KOM
Watopia: Epic KOM (blue dots with ibex), Alpe du Zwift KOM, Volcano KOM, Titans Grove KOM

Ibex jersey (blue polka dots) for Watopia’s Epic KOM

Strong enough to get the best time on Alp du Zwift? You’ll get a special jersey just for that, too.

The fastest riders up Watopia’s volcano climb get a special jersey, but it has no polka dots.

London’s Leith Hill has its own polka dot jersey: hot pink with white dots.

Lap Jerseys

The orange jersey is given to the fastest riders around the main route on a particular course, in either direction.

France: no lap leader jersey
Innsbruck: 2018 UCI Worlds Short Lap
London: London Loop
Makuri Islands: Flatland Loop
New York: Park Perimeter Loop
Paris: Champs-Élysées
Richmond: 2015 UCI Worlds Course
Watopia: Hilly Route
Yorkshire: 2019 UCI Worlds Harrogate Circuit

There is also a lap jersey for the fastest rider on Watopia’s Jungle Circuit loop in either direction.

Combined Jerseys

If you’re strong enough to be the fastest rider for more than one of the categories above Zwift will issue you a “combined” jersey.

Here’s a throwback: watch below as Nathan Guerra of Zwift Community Live takes all three on a lap of Jarvis:

Losing the Jersey

Once you get a jersey you keep it for up to an hour in game, or until someone bests your time. If you log out, your jersey goes to the next-fastest person (unless you sign back in within an hour).

A Note About Events

If you score a leader’s jersey during an event, that jersey will be indicated in the rider list to the left, but you will not be given that jersey to wear during the event.

Once the event ends (or you exit the event) you will be given the jersey.
