I love Rapha's stuff. I agree with Ryan's assessment that Rapha's items are "stylish, well made, a bit pricey, but worth it."
I own a few pieces (jerseys, jackets, bibs, caps, shorts) and they are all excellent -- very well made and very comfortable. And although by now Rapha has a signature look that can be spotted a mile away, at least that look is not fluorescent with a maze of logos, doodles and advertisements. Their aesthetic minimalism is refreshing.
