Good downhill windblock, poor breathability.
Great fit, with decent length. Mainly used for downhills on cold mornings or windy days. Not particularly breathable, any extended cycling leads to a lot of sweat build up, the arm pit holes don’t quite cut it.

Very light, good for windy days. not very breathable. Good to use in colder conditions, when wind is strong and with easy rain.
I am 182 cm, 78 kg and L size fits perfectly.

Not what I expected
I unpacked the jacket, which was a good resemblance of the advertised product. Good fit, goes well over Brevet jacket, very light and packs down to nothing. It’s one of those items that you wear occasionally when needed. My other Rapha kit is very well made and performs well.
I actually came to put this on on a ride home, back to the coast into fairly cool westerly’s.
Riding into a strong wind, I was working hard. First impression was that this was rather stiff fabric and rather like a crisp packet, which flapped and rattled in the wind. When I reached the coast and stopped at the cafe, I removed the wind jacket and was very dissatisfied to find it wet through with condensation on the inside. I noticed small holes under the armpits and thought that’s not enough. I do a lot of fell walking and am used to using Pertex fabrics, which are brilliant wind proofs and never have a problem with moisture. I presumed that this would be a pertex fabric, as it is wind proof, very lightweight and packable. Obviously not. I must say I’m very disappointed with it and probably will not use it again. Waste of money really. Such a shame

Thin and super light
Absolutely super-thin nylon windshield. Completely compressed it fits in a jeans pocket, really impressive. So no problem with putting it in your race jersey pockets. On the skin it feals plastic-like but I wore it in a 8°C hard rain conditions, and it sure gets totally soaked, but it protected me from getting totally cold and stiff. For pure wind protection it is great. Arms are a bit longer, and it is not super-skinny fit which i prefer for jackets and gilets for comfort. Only down point is the price. For just a nylon jacket it s pretty expensive, but I ADORE the Brevet line, quality is outstanding, small vent holes help breathability and the overall concept works for me. Good stuff. Sizing: I am 1,78m , 70kg, I were M.

My everyday essential bit of cycle clothing.
At first when you see it you wonder what a little thin jacket can do. But it's become an essential part of my everyday riding. It' just a great little layer and keeps you surprisingly warm with out the bulk of a jacket or thicker jumper. It traps air to keep keep you at the right temperature but also with it's vents allow breathability. It packs down so small there is no excuse not to have it with you at all times. I have the browny shade, great colour.

Nicely cut bin liner
This is a curious jacket which seems to have both the waterproofing and breathability of a plastic bag. It really does shrug off rain, but you had better plan to use this for very short stints. For a woven fabric, it really is impressively non breathable. Loved the pale green colour and it for well, so war very sad to return it.

Sweaty, noisy plastic.
This looked great on the website and Rapha have a good reputation. However, it it certainly one noisy flapper in the wind. I suppose people can, at least hear you coming.
It is also a really sweaty piece of plastic, even when not racing this does not breathe. At all.
Still a lovely colour!

Needs ventilation
Good for windy days and also lightweight for carrying in a pocket but needs some ventilation because it’s basically like wearing a plastic bag. Tons of sweat dripping out of the sleeve cuffs. This jacket would have 5 stars if I was trying to make weight for the wrestling match this weekend.

Thin as a papercut.
I bought them because I liked the colour very much (greenish) and they are indeed very lightweight. The high-grade material looks very nice! But they tend to noisily flap around, even if closed. Also when opened (dolce vita), the back end tends to somersault to your helmet. If you wear short sleeves underneath, the jacket sticks to your arm like glue and the sweat drips out of your front sleeve. If you care about packing light, this one is for you. Otherwise, the other wind jackets might be better for you.

Excellent Small "emergency" jacket
Perfect jacket to keep in your back pocket (literally). Packs up tiny and does a really good job once its worn. It does, however, flap and carry on a bit when worn. This makes it a bit noisy while riding.

Lightweight and compact
Very light weight and wraps to a small bundle to be pocketed. Was perfect for the first hour of this mornings ride when the temperature was 5 degrees and an extra layer at the cafe stop

Feather weight but sweat
Love the weight, pack ability and unique color, but it traps moisture like no other, needs a mesh back panel like the Brevet Gillet.

Store-able, light, good in wind and cool weather
The jacket is light and store-able….keeps you warm if it is 40-50 degrees…..then easy to store when it warms up.

Does its job
I am 85kg for 1,85 and XL fits fine. I am pretty satisfied. Perfectly packatable and does its job to help you with chilly descents. Impossible to use it while pedaling because of extremely poor breathability but you could not expect something different honestly. Not five star only because the zip is not perfect

Awesome and versatile!
Fab jacket that packs down to the size of a snack bar. i use this on top of a long sleeved, classic jersey on windy, blustery days. It’s perfect for those rides when you are out and exposed to the wind like the rides I do over the South Downs or when the temperature drops a degree or two. This jacket keeps you feeling warm and toasty and has a degree of water repellent too, but it will not keep out really heavy downpours.

Zero-Function
Jacke ohne Funktion, ausser dass der Schweiß garantiert nicht aus der Jacke entweicht und man nach kurzer Zeit friert. Ich habe die Jacke 1x getragen und werde sie im Müll entsorgen. Derartig mangelhafte Artikel stehen im krassen Gegensatz zum Anspruch des Herstellers hochwertige Sportkleidung zu fertigen. Ich werde auch keine anderen Rapha Produkte mehr kaufen, da ich diese Marke für völlig überschätzt halte.

Light and packs small
Great because is packs so small it’s always with me. Windproof for stops and early morning but it’s off as I warm up. Sweaty inside when cycling warm but remove, shake and dries fast ( windy UK summer day) or pop it in the pocket sweaty and the jersey wicks the moisture off. Reflective stripe is a winner.

Leicht und gut verstaubar
Der Vorteil der Jacke ist das kleine Pack Maße und das Gewicht. Flattern tut sie trotzdem, was entweder an meinen Körpermaßen oder den aus technischen Gründen fehlenden elastischen Materialien liegen kann. Ich werde die Jacke trotzdem behalten, da sie ja nur sporadisch für Abfahrten eingesetzt wird.

Schönes Design
Ich habe mich wegen der Farbe und des Designs für die Windjacke aus der Brevet Kollektion entschieden, sehr gute Qualität, genau das richtige um mal schnell überzuziehen wenn es mal bei der Abfahrt etwas kühler wird. Ich bin 182cm groß und 84 Kg schwer, Größe L passt perfekt.

Sweaty
It's incredible light. But it's flappy, and it is really sweaty, almost like it doesn't breathe at all. It's good for coffee stops and it protects on descents, but this jacket is not made for intensive riding, just for cruising.

Good back up plan but very thin...
Tad disappointed in this but that’s just me... it is very light which is great as it folds up super to put in the back pocket of your jersey, but its very very thin. For me, this is a back up plan to have on a long ride.

You won't find more efficient wind jacked and lighter than this one. Very practical to keep it in your jersey pocket when not used. Perfect for long climpings and descents.

Jacket flaps in the wind
Jacket flaps in the wind. Annoying on a windy day. I keep tugging it down so it stops flapping. It’s not too big on me so it should not be doing that. Otherwise I like it

Leichte Jacke
Die Jacke ist optimal um sie vorsorgliche einzustecken - superleicht und lässt sich auf ein geringes Packmass bringen um sie z.B. im Rückenfach des Trikot mitzunehmen.

Excellent product, just sizes small
It's an excellent product. Works perfectly, screws up small, looks good.
It only doesn't get 5 stars because the sizing is on the small side
