Road tested by the riders of the Rapha Continental, the Rapha Rain Jacket has been developed to provide the best protection when cycling in wet conditions.

Rain Jacket

Road tested on a very wet Tour of California route by the Rapha Continental riders, the Rapha Rain Jacket offers the highest levels of performance in rainy conditions.

The jacket has been designed for severe wet weather riding and is a more robust version of Rapha’s Stowaway. The Rain Jacket is highly versatile, making an effective windproof outer layer on cold days and packs down small enough to fit into a jersey pocket.

The jacket has a slim fit and a dropped tail keeps off road spray. Fully taped seams keep water out at the shoulders and neoprene cuffs keep wrists warm, so vulnerable areas are protected when riding into heavy weather. Special panels under the jacket’s arms make it extremely breathable when the going gets tough.

Inside, the seams are finished in a stylish contrast colour. The jacket has an offset, waterproof zip with a fleece-lined zip guard and a lockdown puller. The zipped rear pocket is also waterproof, while reflective Rapha prints appear on the lower back and collar. The cuffs and side panels also have a reflective trim.

"The performance of the Rain Jacket exceeded my expectations during the most demanding and challenging weather conditions. Every detail is well judged and well thought out, it's exceptionally lightweight yet still durable."

"First things first: this jacket works. The first time we used it was on a 200-mile super-mountainous ride in the Pyrenees when it rained for hours on end, and it kept the water out without any trouble. A couple of months, several wet rides and a few spins through the washing machine later and it’s still doing the business."
