Description
Rapha’s hidden gems
Since Rapha launched, in 2004, nearly every product has carried some kind of story label – woven or printed anecdotes and illustrations that connect both the product and its owner to the history, characters and intrigue of road racing and culture.
This second volume of Inside Stories is a collection of some of the finest story labels from the Rapha archive. Printed on a quality matt stock, each label has been photographed to best represent how it appears in the original garment. Casebound, the book features its own inlayed story label on the back. Limited edition.

Better than the washing instructions!
Who reads the washing instruction inside any clothing they buy…almost no-one as you already have an idea as to what to do. However, inside the Rapha garment is another label that is of far more interest as to what temperature you should use or whether you can tumble dry it. Cycling clothing now comes with anecdotes on cycling heroes. There’s always one there somewhere. Rather than having to buy all the clothing and finding out you’ve ended up with duplicate labels, Rapha have kindly decided to compile a booklet with copies of the labels. A great coffee table book as long as you drink coffee and have small tables. Well worth having!

Wonderful Present
I bought this book as a Christmas present for my husband and we have both enjoyed it very much. It is not only aesthetically pleasing (as with all Rapha products) but full of beautiful prose and little bits of cycling history.

Some fabulous insights...
A great read and given that I would be unable to buy all the products to see all the labels, this a brilliant idea. The text on some of them is a little small, but otherwise it's a fabulous book. Now to find volume one...

Finally accessible labels and stories
A lovely little book with the labels that we all search for whenever new kit is purchased - much easier to access on a page than in the outer lining of a rear pocket

A mighty little book
I wasn't sure what to expect from this book but I found it great to dip into & (re)discover the stories behind the labels of some of Rapha's products.
