Ahh, its a combo of the two. MonoMano - you've omitted the subdirectory in the first part of the RewriteRule, therefore directing ALL traffic to the HTTPS subdomain address. I found that checking for 'off' was more reliable than checking for !=on, dont ask me why!

You'd want to add the subdirectory back in as per Floern's response, see below:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(subdirectory/.*)$ https://www.mydomain.com/subdirectory/$1 [R=301,L]
