Yesterday on my commute I saw someone wearing a Rapha cap and those Rapha knickerbockers, and riding - perhaps inevitably - a slightly boutique fixie.
It reminded me of another Rapheur (if that's the correct term) I had seen a few weeks previously who was wearing full kit of Rapha leggings, a Rapha jacket, and Rapha cap.
Both outfits were very striking, and I found that odd given Rapha's brand is intended to be understated and subtle.
Is Rapha still cool? Or is it slowly being Burberrified?
