Rapha, nice but a bit pricey?

If it doesn't have a duck or a Palace logo on it, it's not worth having...

Fuck it, I'll sew one on!

The only good thing about that Palace collaboration is the hope it might bring about more interesting ones and save us from piggin' Team Astana Start-up UAE.
Unfortunately this P x R one completely overlooks what we all actually love about pro-cycling kits: Benign exotica.
Obscure Belgian white good manufacturers, French wholesale seed producers and Italian grout.
In my opinion, instead of trading solely on the benefit of naivety, they could've given to job to someone who also cared.

I imagine (I could be wrong) that would simply result in homage which isn't going to set anyone's balls on fire is it.

You're right, that would be a risk but could've been done, I think.
I'm totally onboard with anything to unserious the peloton of course.

Oostende Benny was always my personal favourite (a minor sponsor of the Landbouwkrediet-Colnago team back in the early 2000s).

Loved that kit.

That's fab! Is there already a thread for this topic?!

Perfect!

EF/Palace/Rapha jersey and other clothing in the range to go on sale to RCC members only end of this week according to cyclist.co.uk.
I thought I’d check the Palace website (I’m not a skateboardy type of person). They’re not frightened of a high price tag. I’m assuming your local skatepark grungy teenager isn’t wearing their stuff.

Skate park always been a mix of ghetto yoots & trust fund kids...

But likewise Palace sells £40 t-shirts, it's not as extreme as Supreme.

Palace is in line with the price of other skate brands like Polar, Pop and Huf. There's plenty of skaters that will buy and skate in clothing at that price.

Not everyone buys new.

Some people buy from ebay for more than new

The stuff that drops on a Friday in limited quantities isn’t the stuff that people are skating in. Haven’t bought much in the last few years but skateshops always had more reasonably priced less limited clothes & hardware
