I remember that. Anti marketing.

^One. I'll be poor too...but think how lovely we will look!
Penniless but stylish. Loving the sound of that. Quite poetic. :)

It's much more literal than that with a brand looking to expand their product base

winky face, smiley, nod's as good as a wink to a blind man

Hey I don't mind I even told Mrs B about it. Stores up points dunnit.

Can' believe no one has mentioned how sexist this is..................

I did, post #7977

Yes, well done.

It's about as sexist as having a 50% sale on the Pro Team or City Riding collections.

If there's one thing that Rapha is not, and will never be, then that is poetic, no matter how hard they try.

anyone have a pair of Leather Town Gloves - Black - most likely size L they want to shift?

The sale was too good to resist and I ordered some shorts, a top and various paraphernalia on Friday. I haven't heard anything from Rapha about shipping yet and wondered if anyone else has had their sale items through the post yet, please?

I assume that Rapha have been snowed under and are struggling. Patience, Grasshopper...

I've had my 'we've posted it' email this afternoon (purchased on Friday) ... expect it will arrive in a couple of days, maybe tomorrow.

I'd go a size down, I have a reasonably normal sized hand for a man, but the S size fit perfectly after 2 weeks.

Why do I keep spotting ppl with the kneewarmers on back to front? ie.Stripe on the calf.

Big Rapha faux pas...

I assume they think it's a reflecting thing to alert cars behind.

^^I'd agree on sizing down, but beware with the town gloves that that may mean the fingers are too short. I wear an L or even an M in the Grand Tour Mitts, but XL in the Town Glove because of the length.

yeah, it's all about the length, not the girth.

Same here.

Relax ladies - all good things to those who wait.

Sounds like you have ladies hands to me.

Not from what I've been told...

Same here.

Me three!

It would explain that Randonneur incident.

"You have ladies hands, my lord".

sadface I missed this!!!

Rapha shipped today the wind jacket i ordered on sunday, but still not the softshell which i ordered on friday.
Anyway, i could probably have it tomorrow but because i paid only for standard not express delivery rapha needs to punish me.

The sender has advised us that item .... will be posted into the Royal Mail network on the 2012-02-29.

really bad service
