Rapha Women’s, finally
Hey ladies! If you’re anything like us, you’ve been drooling over all things Rapha since your pappa took your training wheels off. Well finally they’ve gotten around to making a few wearables for our gender, and they’re up on the website now: Rapha Women’s! The product list is slim – jersey, shorts, and a jacket - but I’m glad they’re taking their sumptuous design in a female direction, and I’m looking forward to future goodies they will produce.
This is the Stowaway Jacket. I want. The asymmetrical zipper positioning is nice.
Here’s a picture of women (yes! women! straight off the Rapha website!) wearing said jacket. Ow Ow!
The main problem, which is a sore subject for all Rapha prodcut admierers regardless of gender, is that they’re fucking expensive as hell! At $260, I shall not be purchasing this little gem any time soon, if ever.
So, Rapha, how about you make these about 1/3 of the price they are currently listed? And send me one for free? That would be greeeeeeeat.
Agreed! I love the jackets, but I’d never buy one at that price. Honestly, it’d have to cost about $30-$45 for me to even consider it.
Too bad for Rapha. I’m sure they’ll make plenty of money even without my purchase, though.
yeah
about $40 would be right
what are they made of, unobtainium?
wle
even their jerseys cost $140
there is no excuse for it really
i don;t see who buys this stuff
but it;s usually pretty

If I had the money, I would totally buy it. A good product made by good people. You pay for quality. I don’t have the money, but if I did…I would rock the hell out of that jacket!
I started buying from GB company shuttvr.com they have some lovely jerseys at realistic prices and new kit coming in march. They have a cute facebook fanpage showing off new stuff. Their guys stuff is a good fit on me too, I’ve no hips!
I stopped doing rapha when they started making their kit in asia!
