Very light and breathable, but easily tearable
Very light and breathable that's for sure, albeit at the cost of being incredibly brittle. I tore a hole into mine after taking the garment off of my body first ride.

Buy this base layer.
Perfect base layer for cool days. Fit seems accurate for the stated measurements, and has all the comfort and quality of merino wool. Favorite base layer I own.

Fragile
the shirt does what it should ... as you are used to from rapha ... unfortunately it is very fragile ... it just tore me after the ride / sweaty when undressing

Must have edition to the wardrobe
So versatile! Great at keeping you warm in the early morning but not too hot as it warms up. Does come up quite small. I’m wearing a medium at 73kg and 178cm

Super versatile
First time trying the merino mesh base layer - surprised how versatile it was. Have worn under kit on chillier rides, and also when on the turbo. Works great

Never ride without it
Best base layer out there. Incredibly comfortable in all weather conditions- hot and cold. Best part of all, does not get funky as most synthetic fabrics do.

輕, 不熱
肩膀及胸的版型稍寬, 但腰部回縮, 拿在手上重量明顯輕, 穿在身上略透明, 原本懷疑羊毛衣是否在高溫下穿得住, 結果發現這件mesh竟然比棉質背心更加明顯涼爽, 而且在超過35度的氣溫下完全無感, 無論是涼感或舒適我認為它完勝pro team base layer(上衣是climber jersey)

Excellent base layer
Bought this to replace a long-serving and much-loved similar Rapha base layer. The fabric seems even better, and the base layer performs flawlessly.

Simple but versatile base layer
Great piece for unpredictable weather and layering. Keeps sweat off and a can keep a little bit of chill off as well. Does feel potentially fragile

Sad the mesh has changed
Been using wool vests all my life used Rapha since early day’s really enjoyed the original mesh vests very sad the mesh has pretty much gone!

Very good temperature control
Very light and good humidity/sweat loss. I can ride these between 10-25c with good comfort. I down sized so that it would have a closer fit.

Great warmer weather baselayer
Lightweight and breathable for summer rides, and good moisture wicking for trainer use. Only setback is that the fabric is quite delicate.

Great base layer
Great base layer, I've stopped wearing the thicker winter jerseys now i'm using this. comes up quite short, maybe best to size up?

Woolen Mithril
Beautiful, comfortable, well fitting. I now wish that all my base layers were made like this. It’s like a wool version of mithril.

Hands Down- Essential Layer
When the weather turns cool, this is the most essential item Rapha carries. It really holds your temps and wicks moisture away.

Wicking!
Rapha's merino base layers do exactly what's promised: they keep you cool in the heath and warm in the cold. Proven this spring.

Nice base layer but could be longer
Really light but only gave it 4* as it’s really short in length. Feels great under a jersey I just wish it was slightly longer.

Great.
Great. Does the job, keeps you warm without getting hot and wicks away sweat. I wish they would stock more of the larger sizes.

Extremely comfortable, quality product. Doesn’t get whiffy due to its merino properties, and performs well on those hot days.

Simple
Gets the job done. Put it on and forget its there. Not a base layer fan above 65 F but under that temp this one is ideal.

Great fit and feel, but fragile material
Happy with this base layer, however the mesh material is fragile and is easy to tear, so be careful when changing

I have worn this base layer a couple of time. Comfortable and good in mild conditions when a jersey isn't enough

Very comfortable, simply awesome. Used now in the Norwegian spring, and it is perfect as a little extra layer.

Quality garment, but I can't wear it as a base layer in summer. It seems only to be for cold weather riding.

Great base layer but a bit short
Very nice base layer for mild and warm days, a bit short though. I would like to see this shirt 5-10cm longer

A bit base for a base layer
Bought this as a lighter base layer but the sizing is not consistent with my other Rapha bits. Very small

Warm base layer
A warm base layer... I found it too warm for summer use. Not a bad fit, but I prefer the pro base layer.

OK
Rapha clothing does tend to run small but this medium is really too tight and not pleasant to wear
