No, but it's waterproof, breathable and only £50.

Label snob.

But, but you is coming inta Tarn, you does need da Rapha to rideout herez..
🙄

Whats the point of writing the rules if no one is going to abide by them??

Eh?

Eh?

Take a look at yourself and ask yourself if you could really been seen in Tarn looking like that..

Go on.. 😉

Akshewally, it must be said that the sheer volume of Rapha-wrapped MAMILs on the commute has rapidly declined, to be replaced by a massive increase in AlturaMan And His Amazing Hi-Viz Jacket of Oil and Grease Magentism!

Not even now you can get vanity overshoes for your Sidis?

And yes, that is an overshoe designed to look exactly like your Sidi disco slippers (Although I suspect many people will buy the overshoe to go over their Decathlon specials!)

Aquaprofile - my wife's just got a Cosmo and first impressions are pretty good. Probably a bit lightweight for daily wet commutes or MTB in bad weather, but a very good 'pocket' waterproof. Would probably get something sturdier for everyday use and keep the cosmo for borderline days.

How does that Sidi over shoe stop water soaking through your socks?

*Sorry, I forgot, style over substance. 🙄

a lot of countries are cold but not wet in the autumn and winter - I guess it's for those markets?

Yes you...

It looks a bit boil in the bag, was it?

I'm not sure what you're talking about. Nobody pointed and laughed. Why would they, exactly?

I already said it was breathable so your second question doesn't make any sense either, to be honest.

I think thats my whole point, it's just a cycling top and nobody really cares what make/model it is.

Sorry for taking the piss or trying to gee up a thread that was going nowhere.

Or how cheap it is at doing such a good job for such a low price, eh?

To be honest, you read like you were trying to victimise me so you could show everybody how clever you think you are. Oh yeah - nearly forgot...

Makes me laugh that some people are prepared to pay £100 more for a cycling jacket where the only practical difference from the Altura is that it says "Rapha" on it.

Mugs.
