I wish. I haven't found anything. I suspect that clothing isn't desirable for a shop because it needs to be clearanced out every 3 to 6 months. Plus you have to carry so much of it between all the brands, male/female, different models, different colors, different sizes.

I hate it but you have to buy it all online and return everything that doesn't fit. Which for me is probably 4 out of 5 things I buy.

I will be in Renton the next couple of days and was wondering if there are any good bike stores to look for road cycling clothing?

Center Cycle is pretty good.

Trek and REI has select Rapha clothing (check their website for inventory). Element Cycles carry Pas Normal, Gregg’s has Assos and Castelli, and Metier in Seattle carries MAAP and Q36.5 I believe.
