  • How does the core fit and how do you want to PT jersey to fit?
    Core is slightly looser, PT is supposed to be a closer fit so if you're happy with that then stick to your normal size. If you want it to be a more similar fit to your core, you could go up one. There aren't huge jumps between the sizes in my experience

  • If you miss out on getting a Palace x Rapha x Doe-eyed fan Jersey then you can console yourself with a coin purse for £118. it has a picture of a duck on it and a gold* zipper.
    You can even queue up outside the store for 6 hours for the full frisson of purchasing excitement and the plaudits of your peers once you show off your purchase.

    *It’s not real gold but fake.

  • Not unless the vote jersey is really tight. I wear the same on each

  • PT for me fits the same but less short.

  • Cheers for the replies. Will go for the same size. Main issue with core jersey is the sleeve are short.

  • I don't really like the patterns and I dont' have the money or the style to pull any of it off but I like that there is outside influence in the design and dare it be said inclusion of "fashion" into kit patterns and clothing. The design elements in the peloton are so thin and so marginal year on year that anything new is a goddamn relief. IMO the resistance to design elements of Rapha x Palace are more to do with older (mostly) men having a hard time confronting the fact that they can't be "cool" anymore and they can't buy their youth back. Young peoples' fashion should make older people confront their mortality - meaning age gracefully and cut the kids some slack to be weird and wear weird stuff as they grow up

    tl;dr if you don't like it's it's probably because it's not for you

  • tl;dr if you don't like it's it's probably because you are old

    Ftfy.

  • when accuracy kills...

  • Those pink cargo trousers are 🔥

  • Pretending to like it doesn't count. You're still old.

  • The zip-off skirts are a direct lift from vintage Nike ACG one of Hadid sisters has been wearing.

  • Alright, grandad.

  • :)

    Everything I wore 20 years ago is cool again!

  • Not the skirt

  • David Beckham pivotal fashion moment sarong wearing was 1998, apparently.

  • I’m sold at “…from rubber that’s tinted and ombré’d in pink and blue tones…”

  • Young peoples' fashion should make older people confront their mortality - meaning age gracefully and cut the kids some slack to be weird and wear weird stuff as they grow up

    Couldn't agree more. All the more reason why companies pandering to the likes of boring old farts like me shouldn't go chasing the youth market. Know your customers.

  • That’s the first time i have seen neon hoodies and a barbie sticker kit called “design elements”
    Some Nathan Barley had a hissy fit in a brand strategy meeting and got his way.
    Totally Mexico.

  • Personnally I have not witnessed any raphalace hate, the over 40yo who i know bought some, did it for their kids

  • you know a 40 year old with teenagers?!
