Brilliant bike packing or general use jacket
Really impressive jacket. The warmth to weight ratio is superb and it packs down very small, not far off a 750ml bottle size. This is an advantage of the real down feathers over synthetic.
Water repellency looks good based on the odd shower I have been caught in, I wouldn’t want to subject it to a full soaking though.

Great jacket with one or two areas for Improvement
Really good jacket, warm but not as warm as the previous Rapha Explore 850fp down jacket I have.
Pros - I really like the synthetic cuffs, hem and shoulders. The two way zip is a great idea for accessing underlayers. Internal stash pockets are great for gloves hats etc when static. I personally like the attached hood, which when not needed I roll into a collar
Used Bike packing/Rock climbing
Cons - The cuffs are tight - as per most Rapha products - Why ?
As above bring back the 850fp down.

Great jacket, perhaps too warm for cycling
A good looking and well cut jacket. I often use my dark blue version off the bike with only a T-shirt underneath and it’s very comfortable. I plan to use it for bikepacking, but based on limited testing so far, even in 0-10C with a T-shirt on underneath, I end up quite sweaty, especially in the arms. The zips help regulate temperature at the front, however heat gets trapped in the arms. I’ll keep testing, but worse case, it will make for a fantastic jacket for around the town or travelling.

Excellent Jacket
This jacket is an excellent addition to my cycling and leisure wardrobe. Being so light weight I was sceptical as to how warm it would be when the temperature got down to around freezing, no issues there, amazing warmth.
It is an expensive item but similar jackets from the big known jacket brands are comparatively priced but in my opinion not as well made or have the exclusivity of Rapha.
Size wise I’m usually a medium with Rapha so ordered a medium. It’s ideal, with room to layer up.

Warm and light jacket
This jacket has got plenty of wear since I bought it for my husband for xmas. We exchanged it from a S to a M in-store, as, though my husband mainly wears size S, he found the fit of this jacket too close, being more of a cycling fit. He was looking a more relaxed, outdoor fit, which we got with the M. He tells me it's nice and warm, perfect for the cool autumnal conditions we've had lately.

Great for hanging out at the cafe
Well made. Warm even in sub zero temps.
Not waterproof but splash proof enough for snow.
Would not wear in rain esp since the fill is natural.
Would not wear for strenuous exercise - it doesn’t vent moisture well. I found sweat beading on the inside of the jacket, outside of my midlayer.
Either these are for very cold conditions or they’re more for light activity.

Casual wear or riding in the cold.
I like the sustainable credentials of this jacket and its soft silky material which is comfortable to wear. Great casual wear, or under a weather proof top on a cold bad weather day. It would work for a cafe stop too, it is virtually weightless, and can be compacted for rides - but remember to get it out as soon as possible to maintain the loft.

Precarious Hood's Elastic Band
A lovely jacket indeed. An interesting feature is the elastic band of the hood which allows it to be adjusted to protect the ears from the cold winter wind. The problem is that the elastic band is barely attached by a tiny seam. Obviously it came off the second time using the jacket.I submited service repair but have yet to receive the service.

Fit & Function on or off the bike
6'0" 172 lbs. Fits perfectly for my size. Generally size Large in most bike jerseys is the norm for me with bib shorts going to a medium (32 x34). This jacket delivers for comfort and efficient warmth without overheating while exercising. Adjusts to conditions well. Will eventually get wet with heavy snowfall but never got cold.

Brilliant
Fabulous down jacket which is great for on and off the bike. Primarily used for commute to and from work (and took advantage of the cycle to work scheme to take the edge off the price). Really high quality, lightweight, and cosy exterior pockets.

Well designed!
I haven’t had the chance to test its durability just yet, but compared with my ultra light backpacking down it seems equally as warm and well built, and even lighter. Hopefully it holds up to years of bikepacking, but first impressions are high.

Essential garment for bike-packing adventures
Fine "dark blue" hue, and perfect suitable to wear under my Explore GoreTex Jacket, on/off cycling; missing only a detail: a small pocket inside. I fit M size, I'm 178 cm.

Great jacket
Super packable, extremely light, great fit. Great to use on the bike and off. One of the maybe possibilities is the super small package it gets into

Warmer than my Patagonia puffer
Warmer than my Patagonia puffer. The cuffs are a little tight. I like the internal pockets as well as the hood fits very well.
