Are rapha a super-ethical manufacturer? I've not seen anything to suggest so, I was under the impression that they made all their stuff in far east sweat shops.
For £15 I'm not expecting any after sales to be honest. May try some 'assos' stuff as presumably the fake rapha isn't going to use sportswool type stuff as @yemble says. Stuff that's already polyester is probably easier to fake.
Will investigate anyway.
Do as you will but remember that to manufacture this stuff they will use inferior materials and practices that could include children with sewing machines and you have no recourse if it falls apart.
