Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great three season jersey made to last This is a perfect three season jerrsey. I use it below 60 degrees F and under jackets in the winter. The merino wool blend is super comfy and launders easily. I even put them in the dryer on "low" and there has never been any shrinkage. The fit is perfect for "on the bike". Even the angled ends of the sleeve are designed to cover you when riding. The quality is excellent including the zippers. I am not a big fan of the waist adjustment chords. While they work, they are a bit of a waste. An elastic waist like on the pro training jerseys would be better. You really can't beat this jersey for value and function. I probably own half a dozen.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent jersey Excellent jersey. I've used it this winter in 45F degree weather and I needed a windbreak or vest over to stay warm on the downhills. Going up it was nice to have a full length zipper. The zipper tab could be bigger to avoid fumbling with gloves, and the neck closure part jabs a bit into the adam's apple. But, these gripes are very very minor and I'm sure that after a few washed it will get broken in. I like this jersey for it's versatility and can definitely envision using this all winter and into spring. I'll probably use it for x-country skiing too. I'm 6'3" 180, I wear a 41 L coat and the size large fit perfect. Love the nice long sleeves.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from My new favorite Fall Jersey I purchased an XL, which was the right size for me (6'3" 205 pounds). It's slightly large, not a race fit - mostly due to the stretchiness of the merino fabric. I don't think a Large would have been nearly big enough for me, so I'm very happy with this purchase. It's long enough for my frame, and breathes very well as the fall temperatures rise. I also own the core long sleeve jersey, which fits a bit tighter and is a bit warmer as well. It's obviously a pricey purchase, but it's a beautiful and functional piece that works well across a range of temperatures (45-65F).

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very good jersey for mid-season Warm and comfortable jersey for mid-season. A little bit cold for winter season, but with hard-shell windstopper, merino base layer and intense riding it is ok for 5 C degree. But consider wearing hard-shell windstopper for temperature lower than 10 C degree. M fits perfect for 180 cm man with 75 kg weight and relatively small beer belly. Though other classic products the same M size (flyweight jersey and winter tights) were small for me.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Simply a classic! A joy to wear. Sumptuous fabric and great fit, including high collar and neat cuffs. Warm but highly breathable. Love the clean styling with minimal logos. A true classic. Just wish there were more colours (I got pure black).

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A must have for every cyclist’s wardrobe Brilliant jersey and my go to for winter and autumn rides. A must have staple fir every cyclists wardrobe. I use this on club rides as well as my longer tours as it dries easily and seems to adapt to the heat/cold pretty well

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Top Spring Jersey! Really good quality finish, good breathability, pockets don't sag, like the zips and all. A very good fit. Out of the jerseys I own, this one is probably my favourite at the moment, especially for spring riding. It performs well in the early mornings when it is cold and still works nice later as it gets hotter.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from 2nd long sleeve jersey I have large size and am 75kg 173cm 104 cm chest. Fits well, not too snug. But sleeves are too long. Medium too tight over chest. Use with short sleeve base for 10c-18c. Have Brevet jersey that is slightly thicker, about 2 degrees colder i can use it. Needs much less washing than synthetic.

Hi! I’m looking for a good winter jersey, and it’s my first time with Rapha. I’m looking at the size chart and I’m wondering if the classic jersey would fit me. I’m 177cm, but my chest is 91, my waist 85 and my hips 90. Do I even fit any of your jersey?

Asked by: HeZoBCH
Given the measurements, I would recommend trying a size small.

Hi. Confused between classic long sleeve and core long sleeve jersey. Are both for the same temperature range? And which one will be better under windproof jacket ( a bit thermal also). What size you  recommend to me height  182, chest 103, waist 93? 

Asked by: Mariotti
The Classic and Core Long Sleeve Jerseys are for the same temperature range. The Classic is made with some Wool to keep you warm. The Core is insulated and would be better for use underneath a windproof jacket. We recommend a size L based on your measurements.

Hi I am 172cm tall. 75kg. 98 chest and pretty athletic build I have core jersey in size S. It is pretty tight but rather ok except arm sleeves which are very tight. Should I buy M or also try with S?

Asked by: sherpa1
This jersey will fit similar to the Core Jersey. We recommend a S if you would like the same fit, and a M if you would prefer it to be a bit more relaxed than the jersey you have.

Hi, can you tell me if the classic jersey fit is looser than the core jerseys or vice versa?

Asked by: scousehaus
The Classic and Core Jerseys have a similar fit, however the material they are made of is entirely different. We recommend referring to the size chart with your measurements and choosing the same size for both jerseys.

what should be worn if anything underneath

Asked by: VGARRA
Always wear a base layer underneath you jersey. It helps with moisture management and temperature control. Make sure to wear the appropriate thickness for the weather conditions too.
