Rapha, nice but a bit pricey?

Jeans are in stock.

Pity my money isn't in stock.

I wonder if Swrve will be issuing a "cease and desist?"

Since I'm moving to Oz and I've seen the price of Rapha over there, I'm having a bit of a panic 'must stock up before I go'. This will probably see me dumped before I get there.

Anyways, want
Do any women have these, how do they fit?

If you are going to stock up then I suggest you hold off until Monday as I believe all women's clothing will be 50% off for one day only.

Ah, just after pay day. Fate.
Women's clothing is a bit poopy though IMO.

I can confirm Andyp's comment

50% off all women’s kit on the Monday the 28th from noon until Tuesday the 1st noon

one of my friends races for them and so she has been wearing the kit for the past year or so

she has been very happy as up until then she had most of the time had to make do with mens kit

plus it has all stood up to being regularly used and repeated washing

Nice...........not pricy..........win

Thanks for the heads-up Andy & Jamo
I might get my wife a Jersey then,
Does anyone know if the jersey fit tight for their sizing? She normally wears a 14, I would guess thats a large.

50% is awesome.

I don't race however so I'm after casual / commuter clothing, which is pretty much just the mens stuff.

There is literally nothing from the womens I'd buy sadly.

The new Rapha/Paul Smith range is on it's way.

Some of it looks quite nice and some of it, for me anyway, looks pretty horrible.

It's up on the website by the way. They've been filling in the thumbnail images today, haha.

I quite like the merino hooded top. The windproof shirt is a little odd.

Some very nice stuff... I hope it sells like dog shit and turns up in a sample sale.

but a bit pricey?

pricey dog shit?

gah, bloody ninjas

pricey ninja's?

ninjas ain't cheap.

It depends what you want them for. Their landscaping rates can be very competitive.

Maybe Swrve could bundle up a couple of C&D's together:

Fuck Rapha + Paul Smith range! I paid full price for mine only to find out it was heavily discounted a couple of weeks later. I will never buy out of sale again.

Hold on, people actually buy outside of the sales?

Don't buy it from the Paul Smith website either - it's even more expensive on there!

(I only ever buy in the sales./Scottish)

I wear 14 in normal womens clothes, and a 12 womens, or Small mens, in Rapha is perfect (I do tend to wear regular clothes a bit on the loose side though).

I've been pleasantly surprised by the fit of the womens' stuff - I usually wear mens' clothes as they fit me better (not perfect but better) - but the womens' jerseys fit really well.

@Wicksie - I was curious about those shorts too, but suspect they might have too much "pouch"..

@Regal - merino hoodie looks v nice.

thanks hoefla!
