Crazy talk
Rapha should make exactly the same number of items in each size for males and females to avoid suggestion of bias towards fat middle aged men.

I fully appreciate that, but Rapha have been focusing a lot on advertising towards female cyclists through the website and social media outlets. They are also advertising their "core" range in which the female version is arguably a lesser product (no back pockets).
My query on the core cargo shorts is is there something inherently difficult or obstructive in making a female bib option rather than just the shorts, when there doesn't seem to be any issue with the full price, non core version?

It's hard to escape the fact that brands can only produce that which they can reasonably sell and whilst the participation and purchasing levels are so male dominated the product availability will also be.
