First Rapha purchase
My first Rapha jersey. I am 189cm long and initially had ordered Large but after the fit I exchanged it for a XL size, which fits well. Have to say that with temperatures above 20 degrees Celsius this jersey is slightly too warm. In the meantime I ordered a Classic Flyweight jersey (also in XL size) for the Summer period. I'll use this Core jersey for the slightly fresher Fall and Spring season.
Great design; great quality.
Ordering process was straightforward; couple of days later the package was delivered.
Glad with the purchase!

Flappy Jersey
I was expecting this jersey to be really good, but I've actually found it to be exceptionally average...I love the look of the jersey, but I have found that the material is super stretchy and thus fairly loose across the back and around the arms and it flaps when cycling along at any sort of speed, which is really annoying!!! I know that the size I picked is right, as the length of the jersey feels spot on with some natural stretch of the material to fit my body shape...I would not buy another one of these Jerseys again sadly.

Jersey Review
The quality and style / look is amazing, however I have been disappointed with the fit. The fabric between the shoulder blades is always loose and flapping in the wind. Pull down the back of the jersey and it slides up just and bit, then that section of fabric is flapping away again. Disappointed given the price snd my expectations.

Comfortable and stylish
This was my first core jersey. It is perfect for a cool weekend long ride. Comfortable and stylish. The red truly pops! Minor negative is that the sleeves lack the rubber grips like the pro team jersey which results in the sleeves riding up to one's shoulders during a ride. The pro team jerseys should have the same colour offerings.

Too delicate!
The Jersey came very easy apart at the seams, when a friend grabbed me as a joke! I didn't expect, that it would be so sensitive! I was very disappointed, because I have worn it only 2 times, and I didn't managed to repair it since!

Really Awesome Jersey
I just started doing longer distance cycling. Personally, for me, that means about 40-60 mile rides on weekends and this jersey does a really great job in terms of breathability and being tight. I also like the sleak design of the shirt. I am not a huge fan of logos and brands. So, the simplicity and efficaciousness of the design are the great part of this jersey. Lastly, for being a Rapha product, this specific jersey is actually at a really good price point. I highly recommend this jersey as an essential closet item.

Good, But Not As Good As Before
The Core jersey good, but it is not as good quality feeling as the same item I have from about 3 years ago. I love that it is all red, but, typical Rapha, it is not a great bright pure red, but a slightly dark red. Fit is slightly small (compared to normal, non-cycling clothes), but not hugely - I actually use the same size in Rapha tops as normal tops. Pockets have been fine so far - big enough, without being too big and nothing has fallen out. Buy if you are happy with the colour and get at a reasonable price.

You should get one of these
As usual with most Rapha products I have experienced there isn't much negative that you could say about this item. Comfortable and well manufactured with good design features, this may be the most basic jersey in the range but it's probably better than the highest quality of most other brands out there. The area around the chest could do with being a little snugger but that is probably reflective of the years of road riding have made me super slim on the top end like a pro cyclist not a bacon butty munching poser!

Well made but impractical for me
A well-made and comfortable Core Jersey. My only gripe is that that the opening in rear pockets sits too high for me to reach into quickly and grab something to eat etc. while riding. So I've gone back to using an old Rapha jersey from a couple of years ago that is much better in this respect.

Very comfortable but a little short.
Stylish top with good size pockets and a zipped pocket, which is great. Very comfortable to wear, but the back is quite short compared to other tops I have from other makes (I am just under 6ft and the jersey is a medium). This makes getting things out of the pockets trickier. The gripper at the rear appears to be curling after the first wash, but held it's shape when worn. Not as impressed with my first Rapha purchase as I hoped I would be.

Collar stitching fell apart in 3 wears
Collar stitching fell apart in three wears / washes. A good couple of inches gone. Sleeves length is extremely short compared to other Rapha jerseys.
Frustrating when you contact Customer service and they don’t have a replacement in stock. Seems to case with Rapha more often than not

Well Made Jersey
I purchased two of the core jerseys and received them roughly a month ago, so this is not a long-term review, but my initial experience. My observations are that, although, these are the core (training) line, I appreciate the high quality craftsmanship of the jersey. I particularly like the under-stated style of Rapha's products. The sizing was spot-on, with this product line being a bit more forgiving according to their description. My only niggle was the bottom of the jersey in the back (on me anyways). It has a laser cut edge with silicon to keep it down. I find that it's a bit thin in material and it doesn't stay down very well. Other than that, I am very happy with this jersey. I totally recommend this jersey and look forward to trying out other items from Rapha.

Great looking, super comfortable, sleeves bit big
Great colour and fabric feel. It’s very comfortable and the body of size L fits me well. I’m 187cm and 83kg. Unfortunately, the sleeves are a bit baggy even in a riding position. Also, no grippers on the sleeves. Main pocket could be a bit bigger, as it only just fits iPhone11.

Best quality/price jersey on the market
This is a great bit of kit for quality / price. I’m 180cm and 78kgs with a broad chest but the M fits well and snug. Only thing for me is that the sleeves are slightly baggy on me but that’s a small quibble; 5/5 as it’s the best in class as a jersey. Colours are beautiful too…

Comfy if you’re willing to pay
It’s a solid club workhorse jersey, but it’s got stiff competition with other brands at this price point. My only gripe with Rapha is that the rubber tape at the back of the jersey rolls up and doesn’t hold the jersey in place. Fabric is soft, comfortable, and sweat wicking.

Classic, comfortable jersey
This is the first Rapha product I have purchased. I like the classic look of the jersey and the fact that it isn't plastered with obnoxious designs. The first jersey I purchased (a medium) was much too small but it was easy to return, even when I'd lost the original packaging. Rapha quickly sent me a new return label and the size large jersey was a perfect fit. I will certainly look at purchasing more apparel in the future. After a couple of rides, I continue to enjoy and appreciate this jersey.

Jersey gets very wet while in use
Jersey gets wet en sweaty after only 20 minutes drive. Doesn't keep you comfortable warm and/or dry at all. Poor fabric for the price. Not enough technical materials used.

Great jersey, but the size guide is slightly off
Great jersey, but the size guide is slightly off. It says that this jersey is "low compression" and a size L should be good for people with 35.5" / 90cm waists, and 41.5" / 106cm chests. I have about a 36" waist, and a 40-41" chest and the L was SNUG on me, like stuffed sausage snug (I realize I surpass the guide by a half inch). I'm the first to admit I don't exactly have an ideal cyclist's body (I'm 5' 8" and 173 lbs / 1.73m and 78.5kg). But there's no way the L would have worked on me. The XL is perfect (alas). The side zip pocket is great, as are the three back pockets. Material feels good. My only other small gripe is I wish the arm holes were a tad smaller. I've put it through the wash on cold a dozen times (hang dry) and it's been fine, no worse for the wear. I'd definitely buy this again. Maybe if I keep cycling I can get into a large in a few months! :)

Great Jersey at a Great Price
This is a great jersey at a great price. I have more expensive jerseys from Rapha and other brands, but the core jersey is probably my favourite. It might not have the long sleeves of more modern performance oriented jerseys, but it does everything really well and for a fraction of the cost. Highly recommended. Will buy more. I am 6’1”, 73 kg and bought. small and medium. Either would work for me. Small was tighter and more aero. Medium was a bit more relaxed. Would have been happy with either.

Zíper not working
Went to wear it for my first ride and the Zipper would not zip up on the Jersey.
I tried everything and I couldn’t get it to slide up.
Not happy at all.

Great classic jersey!
Soft, comfortable, functional, stylish. This jersey does it all. Plenty of pockets - one with zipper and another inside - keeps stuff secure. A little on the warm side, so great for cooler weather or less strenuous rides.

Quality cycling jersey
The Rapha Core jersey is a quality made product. Material and workmanship are very good, and the fit is comfortable, flattering and functional. Rear pockets are roomy enough for spare tubes, CO2 inflator and extra cylinders, a mini hand pump, light rain shell, glasses and a banana. The zippered hidden rear side pocket is secure and just big enough to hold my iPhone 13 Pro Max. I’m 200lbs, 6’1” tall with a 43” chest, 36” waist and 41” hips, so I went with the XL size which is perfect. Form-fitting but not tight, and no baggy material to catch in the wind. As some other reviewers have mentioned, the sleeves do have a tendency to slightly bunch up, but it’s not a big deal and doesn’t affect comfort. I bought both the black and red Core jersey, and my only issue is that the zipper on the red jersey is a tad sticky to engage, but once done up is absolutely fine. May just need to be worked in a little. The Core jersey pairs perfectly with my Rapha Core bib shorts and presents a stylish, comfortable and understated alternative to my more flashy pro team cycling clothing.

Top quality & reasonable price
Real well made & top materials. For cooler summer days. Probably too thick material for hot (20 plus) days. I find the pockets a little high put I’m not the most flexible. Will last forever I think as it washes like new

Nice
Great jersey which is a nice colour in the olive green. Seems to be durable although I have only used on about 10 rides so far. My only gripe is the sleeves are a tad short in my opinion.
I would recommend sizing up.

Rapha Core Jersey
Good quality jersey. I'm 5'9" but 89kg (42"chest 36"waist) and choose a XL. Fit generally good but excessively baggy around the shoulders and arms. Always difficult to get a perfect fitting jersey that is not tailored.

Best deal Rapha has going
For this price, it’s a great jersey that lives up to my expectations. It fits as expected, snug but not too tight, and has a collar. Too many jerseys these days look like super tight t-shirts with zippers. I like the collar that comes with this jersey because I often ride in varying, sometimes mountainous areas. The collar could be a millimetre or two taller but it does keep me warm on the descents as well as in the mornings and evenings when it’s warm enough to to skip packing a gilet/vest.

Care with sizing if U aren't a typical bike build
Really well made top. Only trouble is I'm not a stick thin cycle build and as such for an extra large. Good across the shoulders but baggy around the chest. Not sure rapha is designed for people with pecs

No price change but changes for the good
I have had a core Jersey for 2 years and recently bought 2 new core jerseys. The fit is better, the material is better and the detailng on the pockets is significantly improved. Same great price.

excellent
I like its design and the material you use and pricing seems very reasonable.
Only issue I had is that left sleeve is much wider than rights sleeve. When you assemble this jersey you might use large size sleeve on the left and medium size sleeve on the right side. I just take this for alternation to adjust left side sleeve to make right width. Since I was very happy with this jersey I did not send this back for refunding nor exchange to right jersey.
Just FYI.
Thank you.
