At $800 Each It’s No Wonder Capes Went Out of Style
This guy I went to high school with would wear his childhood Batman costume to class on picture day. He was years ahead of his time; I wouldn’t be surprised to find out that he’d been the head writer on Arrested Development. I still laugh when I think of seeing him drive by on his Spree moped with the cape flying behind him. So it’s with an appreciation for the ludicrous that I look forward to seeing a fixed gear rider sporting the new Dashing Tweeds Cape. If $800 is too much for a cape from Dashing Tweeds, you can pick up a traditional cycling cape from Jeantex for about $70, or you could just tie an old blanket around your neck.

I bet that’s a pic of Boner and he’s wearing shoes from Patagucci, shirt and pants from Carhartt.
