I fell in love with Rapha last year and spent most of the fall raving about their long sleeve wool jersey. Those things are the perfect weight for California cool temps, and are made of possibly the best jersey fabric ever. The merino is soft and doesn’t itch, the wick-factor is high… and the craftsmanship is just impeccable. So when the famed ‘Rapha Women’s sale’ came around this year, I already owned that jersey in every color, and decided to trial their shorts options instead.
