The Chapeau gravel short have a really nice a thin material and zipped pockets. Their main flaw are the adjustment clasps on the side, they both fell off first time in the washing machine and
I had to replace them with G-hooks.
Rapha seems to be unable to make useful shorts anymore, I remember I had some kind of touring shorts that were awful, rigid material, a rubberized button that was almost impossible to close and a single tiny zipped pocket in a strange place that barely fitted
a single key.

Ah great.
Except not great as the reviews suggest they've messed them up (different cut, no zips on pockets, thinner material etc), surprise surprise. why can't companies leave working products alone.
Looks like I'll be looking elsewhere now after years of faithful service.
Any recommendations anyone? Found the Swrve shorts too thick for summer.
