SUMMARY

This is an excellent button-up shirt, especially considering the design features that take the needs of riders in mind. With a slim fit and exquisite tailoring, Rapha’s Gingham Long Sleeve Shirt is one of those products that’s constructed for active movement but you would never guess from looking at it. The attention to detail is really lovely, from the stash pocket on your back right hand side to the covered panel hiding the front buttons, this is definitely a shirt that can be worn to a fancy dinner. At this price point you expect a lot but after wearing this sharp-looking shirt on and off my bike I can appreciate the quality and comfort of this piece of clothing.
