Description
Everyday wonder wool
The Merino T-shirt combines Rapha’s merino pedigree with a timeless wardrobe staple – the crew neck. The wool’s well-known properties are cleverly combined with nylon to make a yarn that’s wicking, naturally antibacterial and robust.
Worn on its own, merino excels when the weather is mild keeping you cool and dry, or layer it up and benefit from the wool’s insulating properties. Effortless style on and off the bike, in a classic and comfortable cut.

Heavy, feels plasticy and awkward fit
I'd brought this t-shirt after having been impressed by the Rapha 100% merino t-shirts of past years. Unfortunately the introduction of plastic into the cloth of this t-shirt has reduced its quality, durability and wearability. Rapha were well known for having near-perfect fit merino t-shirts of the best quality, their reputation has been ruined by the introduction of this line of products. Why on earth the designers chose to introduce plastic into their product range at a time when consumers are moving away from reliance on plastic in wearables is anyone's guess!

One of my favourite buys from Rapha
I live in merino t-shirts and this one is excellent. Soft feel, the subtle but classy Rapha styling and bike specific touches like the pink viz cuffs. My only disappointment is lack of colours, come on Rapha this would be perfect in pink or green or red.

Ok, the essential t shirt was way too big in a large, bigger than my technical t shirt in an extra large. So where does the merino fall into place? I can’t order another product just to send it back. Sizing seems to be all over the place.
Hi, the 3 tops you mention are all different design and therefore will fit differently. The T-shirt is relaxed fit, the Technical T-shirt is for on bike for when commuting and the Merino t-shirt is a bit more tapered so do purchase according to whether you prefer it loose or more fitted and should you need to exchange or refund, we have a 90 days return period for new/unused garments with tags and in saleable condition.

Hi, does the Merino Tee and Technical Tee have asimilar fits? Does the nylon in the Merino Tee add some stretch so it keeps its shape better? Thanks...
Hi, the cut is similar and both t-shirts offer a bit of a stretch. As far as keeping the shape, I would say the Technical T-shirts is perhaps lower maintenance once out of the washing machine as merino mix usually do need to be reshaped when placing to dry.

Is the Merino T-Shirt in Slim or Regular Cut?
Hi, the Merino T-shirt is tapered fit. It is not Regular nor Slim cut.
