Rapha x Paul Smith Collection

In the far distance future when we can fly again, if you pass through terminal 5 at Hearthrow, stop at the Paul Smith Boutique. You can buy his cycling stuff duty free and usually they have KaskxPS helmets on sale.

Good tip thanks for that!

Figures.

I'd love to buy this jersey, but I'd have to become RCC first and that makes it a REALLY expensive jersey....

If anyone has the caps that they’d like to sell I’m in the market for one 😁

Paul Smith is a Mercian rider too!

That was a lovely watch. Thanks for sharing!

He's quite funny and I'd cycle with him given a chance.


I liked him as a designer back in the early 90's when Italians were taking themselves too seriously for menswear and he injected a little fun...
I only thing I buy from him now are his socks.. and his caps.

C'mon now, his sportcoats are great for tweed runs (and I don't intend any snark with that one). I'd totally wear one

Can an RCC member buy a PS jersey for me

I can't justify becoming a member as I don't travel for work like I used to.

I have a suit, pair of pants and shoes from PS. The stuff is as nicely made as any other designer at that price point.

It really depends on the line as well. Paul Smith, vs PS vs Paul Smith London.

I'd be up for the jersey and cap as well...

I take back wanting a cap, at $75 CAD a bit rich for my blood

I would pay good money to get a outfit similar to the one wore by Capaldi here



A chesterfield with some special velour lining would be nice

PS did a one-off Land Rover Defender a while ago that turned out pretty slick.



Cool little video story about the collaboration. He seems like an interesting guy.

I see USD75, not CAD75. At CAD75 it's a bargain! And think how nicely it would go with the wool overcoat for USD1,695...

Suit is a simple grey that includes a ticket pocket, got it for a really good price 10 years ago at Bergdorf's on sale.

Pants are also a grey, but have a fun purple pick stitch that is barely noticeable.

That cap is even more outside what I am willing to pay if its in USD.

I have the Kask helmet and it's stellar. My only other Paul Smith acquisition has been from his housewares division: a cappuccino cup with cycling caps.
