  • Wondering when did you buy your cargo shorts, do they always stay the same, like made in italy, etc.? I got mine in May 2018, wondering if there will be also problems. So far fine and I love the shorts.

  • Got mine in 2020 spring. Can't remember if they were made in Italy or in Portugal but somewhere in Europe. Got them to tailors to fix them up but so far haven't heard any updates regarding it - hope they haven't messed it up.

    I've heard a similar thing happening (stitching coming off) to an acquaintance of mine just after a week of riding.

    The worst thing about Rapha is that even though the quality is getting worse/inconsistent, I still feel like buying it over anything else because it just looks so good. 😩

    Sizing is the issue for me at the moment.

    Core cargo shorts - L
    Cargo shorts - M

    Similar issues with jackets.

  • the quality is getting worse/inconsistent

    Totally agree. I was wearing my 2012 Winter Jacket last weekend and thinking what a quality piece of kit it is and how well it holds up year after year.

    It is probably less that the quality is bad it is more that the garments are just less durable than historically.
