Practical and stylish
I've worn it from around -3 to 10 degrees C with different base layers etc. and I like how warm and breathable it is. Could definitely handle even colder temps with appropriate kit. Can get hot when the intensity goes up but I've found zipping/unzipping good for temperature control.
I wear S for proteam and I went for S here too and it fits great. Looks good too: maybe the 'core' style suits winter jackets. For reference: 178cm, 71kg.

Warm, snug fitting, pockets very high
This is a quality jacket in my view, and the small fits me perfectly. I am 5'9" about 144 pounds with a 37" chest and 31" waist. It's definitely a snug fit, but I like that. Down to around 44 degrees I wear it with just a simple base layer. Below that temp, a smart wool base layer works well. I have worn it 36 degrees with a base layer and thermal jersey, but I think that was overkill. My only disappointment is that the pockets are too high for me to access them. There is no way I can retrieve my phone from any of them, but that's not all bad! If a banana is sticking out enough, I can just reach it. Overall, a great jacket.

The best jacket for the cold days
Best jacket for the cold days! Kept me warm in a 8°C-12°C cloudy day with only a sleeveless base layer underneat! Wind proof but also breathable for the heavy climbs. Perfect sizing. The inside fabric is soo comfy. The outside is a bit "fragile" and scratchs easily. Thanks Rapha

Loved the jersey so I bought the jacket
I’m a big fan of the Core long sleeved jersey, but decided it’s best used in the 8-14c temp range so was looking for a jacket. The core LS jacket fits the bill. I’ve used it a lot in the 3-8 temp range this winter and it’s been brilliant. The wind proofing on the front and arms keeps the windchill out, and the back is breathable so you never overheat. It looks good in Black and the fit is right - exactly as the jersey. I’m 6ft 85kg 34 waist and the Large fits perfect. In the sale at £80 this was a steal. My only gripe is I wish there were more colours to choose from.

Best winter jacket I've owned
If you have long arms and a long back this jacket is for you. First winter jacket I've had that the arms dont stop at my wrist and come all the way down to the top of my hands and the back doesn't ride up. High quality fabric that certainly keeps the wind out. I'm 1.8m tall and 90kg and XL size fits me perfectly.

Warm Enough
Worn a couple of times down to 2c, usually get away with small size, but this feels a bit tight. Pockets at the back seem to be on the small and don't stretch.

Is this windproof in the arms or just in the chest?
The front of the arms are also made of wind blocking fabric.

I am 5'8" 157lbs. I found the core jersey in S was a bit short. Should I get a M in this Jacket?
This jacket is 8cm longer in the front and 6cm longer in the back than the Core Jersey. If this would be long enough we would recommend staying with a size S. Otherwise the size M is an additional 2 cm longer.

I own a medium Brevit Long Sleeve Jersey which fits perfect, but your sizing chart for this jacket looks like I should be in a small. I'm a 36 chest, 31 waist and 5'11". Thoughts on sizing?
We would recommend a size M as you like the fit of the Brevet Long Sleeve Jersey in Medium.

Can this pair with a winter jersey, or is this a thicker alternative to it? It appears snug, so I wonder if this would layer well over the winter jersey? Thanks!
Yes this can be worn over a winter jersey for added warmth on colder days.

Yes, the front of the arms also use the windblocking fabric.

I wonder what’s the temperature range for this jacket ?
Hello, this jacket is made to be worn in cold to cool conditions (1-8°C / 34-46°F) but keep in mind that everyone perceives cold differently and other weather conditions such as rain and wind will also affect your comfort at these temperatures.
