Rapha, nice but a bit pricey?

Tried Craft? Prendas often have them on offer. I have one of theirs which looks very similar to your previous pic.

I have a craft, but it’s old and not great. Looks like the new ones have a similar waffle/channel knit to the Rapha item. A contender, cheers.

On the subject of EF - are they using Castelli Idro Pro 2 jackets? Screen grab is from their insta.

Perhaps an updated, yet to be released version of this: https://www.rapha.cc/us/en_US/shop/mens-pro-team-insulated-gore-tex-jacket/product/PGI01XXBLK

or this?

I'd very, very surprised if they were rocking any non-Rapha product.

Sounds like a grout thread is needed!

Possibly a prototype yes.

Here's the cut of the Castelli sleeve though...

Think its a probably a functionality feature of the new Gore shakedry fabric, with both rapha and castelli using it under licence

Yeah, the EF image doesn't have the shoulder cut in the same fabric like the Idro Pro 2 does. And the seam on the wrist is different in the 2 images shown on this page.

PT Training jersey arrived today, the green one. Lovely colour and a much more comfortable fit than the Classic. More stretch in the fabric I guess, good amount of space in the arms too.

Yeah it's an updated version of the lightweight goretex jacket, Jimmy Whelan was talking about it on instagram last week. The new sleeves help with getting the jacket on and off easier he said.

Interesting to see them using the Whoop bands

Ah cool, thanks for sharing.

Strange that they use black ones even after releasing the pink ones. Kindof glad I sent the pink one back, the fit was a bit meh, if there are updates potentially on the way.

What’s the bets Rapha will stitch this back together for me....

I bet one million dollars.

Oh shit, are you safe and well? You were cut out of this?

I’ll live.

Oh yes. £11.99 well spent.

Dunno if you are sorted but Maap appear to be doing what you are after.

Cheers. Maap thermal short sleeve does fit the brief.

I bought a dhb Aeron (it uses Polartec PowerDry) and cut the sleeves.

Anyone know if the Pro Team Shoes are likely to be restocked this summer?

🤔 must be a sort after colour.

There's more. Some random things go for crazy prices.

I have a bnwt rapha paul smith polka dot jersey, what might it be worth on eBay?

I've noticed the value of them is really variable based on size, but there has been one on there on and off for like 350GBP

Money laundering surely? This is ordinary stuff, hardly Palace.
