Rapha, nice but a bit pricey?

Is this what used to be called the Pro Team Jacket?

We have had this discussion

We have?

I bought my Pro Team Jacket in 2012 and it's still going strong.

Assume my level of Rapha knowledge is from a similar era.

‘era’ made me smile.

So my gift card expired in September and Rapha just extended it for me and rounded up on them.

Which was nice.

Contents of my basket may have helped.

Just bought a mechanics jacket in the sale - assume I'll be building frames like Ricky Feather now I've got the gear.

Me too! But thers dickies sale on too, so bought that too, will see which fits better and return

I actually bought all of the mechanics collection

The T-shirts feel good and thick. Might cop

I've got a £50 voucher to use, any suggestions on what to buy? What are the suggestions for those who have the physique of a natural descender?

I bought the shirt, as well as the jacket, but didn't want to present myself as a baller.

Unlike Amey

Go on then.

Is there likely to be more items added in the sale?

No

Has the clear lens for the the flyweight sunglasses been discontinued? I bought when they were the original pro team sunglasses, assume arm fitment is unchanged?

You could give customer service a go, they may uncover one or two
I don't know if there's a difference between old PT and Flyweight. They do look the same

Have we talked about Rapha's new CX collection yet?

oh do fuck off.

Saw it the other day, it’s minging.

Look on the bright side, if you do want one just wait until the sale and get it cheaper.

Reminds me of reading early interviews with Simon Mottram about why he set up Rapha:

“ he loved the bikes but he hated the garish polyester clothing plastered with logos.”

But on the tekkerz insta they always talk about getting lean and reference Motocross. Influence is there.
