Rapha creates the finest cycling clothing and accessories in the world. Rapha headquarters are in London with a United States office right here in the Pearl. Started in London in early 2004, the name Rapha was taken from the 1960s cycling team Rapha, which was named after the apéritif drink company Saint Raphal. In 2007, Rapha partnered with British designer Paul Smith to create a range of limited-edition cycle clothing and accessories. Rapha clothing is produced in the UK, Italy and the Far East. UK production included some early Merino wool pieces and also leather gloves which are made in Somerset, England. Italian production focuses on stretch fabric and stretch garments such as shorts and tights. The winning bidder will select a Rapha Classic Wind Jacket - choose from men's, women's, color and size.
