..I really don't get it! What is the point of buying a Rapha jacket, when it's not a Rapha? Or a look-exactly-like-Bianchi jersey, only it is not? (Or hold a fake Mulberry handbag, or wear fake Prada jeans, or any fake not necessarily cycling related for that matter?) I kind of understand the Pro-Team jerseys -even when they are not paid to wear them- in the form of fans' support (as well as financial support up to a point), but then again, what is the point if they are replicas?
And more than anything else, what is this Pretend-Culture -where everything is about appearances and what matters most is the vitrine- saying about the wearer?
