I'd rather spend £70 on a pair of those and £15 on a pair of jeans than the other way round. Well made, versatile and understated kit. Rather spend the money with them than some inerchangable bit of tosh only differentiated by the label sewn on, whether it's Diesel/Fred Perry/D&G/Animal/Evisu/Ted Baker etc etc.
yep real clothes in the sale and down tk max – spend money on bike stuff instead
My commments were aimed at Rootes and Vinny as above.
Anywho, like I said, I just don't get most of the Rapha kit, 100% form over function IMO, in line with the comments made re other brands.
I've never ridden in baggy shorts, so I guess I'm not the target audience. Saying that, I do own some Fox High Voltage and some Sugoi Gustos to wear as casual shorts.
