RAPHA + GORE-TEX

A superlight, breathable and waterproof shell for complete protection when riding in the rain.

Description

The Pro Team Lightweight GORE-TEX Jacket combines the lightweight, hydrophobic SHAKEDRY™ fabric with a streamlined fit to create a the most protective, superlight layer for wet weather. Water simply beads and runs off the outer surface of the jacket’s two-layer laminated material. No saturated face fabric means no chilling effect, and keeps the jacket extremely light and easy to pack down. Every seam is lined and each binding on the jacket’s hem, cuffs and collar are carefully engineered with a lightweight, elasticated closure for comprehensive weather seal.

With protection from the elements assured, the highly breathable fabric also allows body heat and moisture to escape, meaning you can work hard in the rain without overheating. Should your efforts be rewarded with brighter skies, the jacket folds down to stow in half a jersey pocket. At just 49gsm, the fabric has an extremely low pack volume. Once you’re back home and out of the storm, hang the jacket using its integrated hanger loop. It’ll be dry in no time, ready for the next ride.

Our Pro Team range has a closer fit. If you’re unsure which size will offer you the most comfort, our updated size guides can help you find the perfect size.

“The new Rapha Pro Team Lightweight Gore-Tex jacket offers all the performance of the unique Gore-Tex Shakedry fabric with a few Rapha details, at a price that isn't excessive compared to other Shakedry jackets. It's totally waterproof, very breathable and impressively packable.”

– David Arthur, Road.cc

“The last word in waterproofing comes with Rapha's eye for styling and design […] If you're looking for complete and total waterproofing, then look no further. The Rapha Pro Team GoreTex is a worthy inclusion in our list of the best waterproof cycling jackets …”

– Josh Croxton, cyclingnews.com

“This jacket brings proven Gore-Tex ShakeDry performance in a well thought out design at a – in the context of super-expensive waterproof jackets – surprisingly competitive price.”

– Jack Luke, bikeradar.com

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Excellent quality, average fit. Great garment and the Skakedry material is the best of active waterproof membranes IMO. The jacket has all the qualities and features you'd expect from a Pro Team garment, doing a very good job of keeping the heaviest rain off whilst protecting against the wind, my only, minor grumble would be the fit. It's not too bad around the torso, but the shoulders and arms are a bit big and flappy, especially compared to the equivalent garment from a rival brand. This does however make for easier removal and donning of the jacket without getting off the bike. I'm 6'2 and around 82kg, I have a large jacket. Whilst I could comfortably fit into the medium, it was just too short for my torso.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Worth every Penny of the asking price. Due to already owning a classic rain and wind jackets, I really did not ‘need’ another packable rain jacket... However I am so glad I made the decision to purchase this gore tex jacket. It has completely made the former redundant. It is light, waterproof and astoundingly breathable and has become my go to spring outer wear. I am a solid L in classic Rapha jerseys and found this jacket in a Large was race fit. I settled on an XL to allow room for winter layering and full pockets. Time will tell for longevity but at the moment early indications are good. Style wise, this jacket is right on the button, a Rapha classic.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from game changer this is quite simply the best waterproof I've ever had. yes it costs a lot of money but so far its been worth every penny. I ride in the Peak District (UK) and we've had well above the average rainfall for 9 months straight. I was sick of getting wet. I bought this jacket and now I don't get wet! brilliant! it packs really small and is very light. it does appear a bit fragile but has survived an icy over the bars moment ok. time will tell for its long term durability but so far so very good. I've read reviews commenting about the sizing and it is a close fitting round the torso and roomier over the shoulders but this make more sense once you start adding layers underneath. anyway I prefer this. I want to be dry when I'm riding in the rain, not aero and wet!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The perfect wet weather garment I bought this as soon as it came out and it’s been perfect. I was surprised quite how small and light it is. It easily folds up and fits into your back pocket. The weather on ‘mud island’ is changeable to say the least and I’m unlikely to go out in the rain but being caught in a shower is a distinct possibility so this is the perfect garment. I survived the showers and remained completely dry. No water seepage through the neck or seems. After the rain stopped a sharp shake and it was dry again, folded up and back in my pocket. I also took it with me on a weekend away and wore it as a casual garment on a wet evening. The only minor irritation was the sleeve length-my arms are particularly long so this maybe an issue just for me. I usually wear the pro fit and this a good fit, not tight but snug enough.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from It's Definitely Waterproof Through 50 miles of heavy downpour... this jacket successfully repelled the water. I was is awe! My only complaint is the rear of the jacket. It's too short and doesn't grip like the other Pro Team jackets. I found myself constantly pulling down the rear because my Pro Team jersey was being exposed to the elements.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Essential piece of kit I wore this jacket for for the first time today and was caught out in the heavy rain a couple of times and the jacket performed perfectly keeping me dry for a wet 65 mile January ride. I normally wear a size medium in Rapha pro team but decided to size up to a large so I can wear this jacket over multiple layers in the winter and it fits perfect.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excelled in the worst conditions possible in NZ I purchased this for a cycle trip on the west coast of NZ South Island. The rain was torrential getting >500mm in a couple of days. The jacket did a great job of keeping you dry while the material breathes to stop you feeling like you are in a plastic bag. It would still be sweaty in hot weather but it performed perfectly in tough conditions when other riders rain jackets leaked etc. Protected from the wind on descents but comfortable when riding on the climbs. It was expensive but I haven't tried anything that has come close to the performance.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best Rain Jacket Ever This is really the best rain jacket I ever had. I would say the first one I have had that is 100% rainproof, and also does not heat you up in warm weather. I had to get it the day before my arrival to Taipei and did a ride next day where it started to rain very strong and kept on raining for the next two hours. It was about 27°C, and not one point I felt uncomfortable, too hot or got wet at all. This in combination with the shadow Bibs was just best match!

How far down below the waist line does the rear material go? Asked differently, does the material stop at the waist or is there a dropped rear hem? It's hard to tell from the photos.

Asked by: Doc Kay
The material does come a bit below the waist, yes. This can be seen in the images.

Would this be a good layer over the Mens Insulated Brevet jacket? Would I need to size up? or stay true to the brevet sizing?

Asked by: granjondo
This would be great to go over the top of an insulated jacket. As it has a Pro Team fit, in this case, it might be worth sizing up to fit comfortably over the top.

Hi Yappy asked a question 8 months ago. I have bought this jacket and there is no instructions on how to put it into the mesh pocket. Is it literally a stuff pocket and how long can the jacket be stored in the pocket (presuming it is dry)

Asked by: Andyg0303
Hi There. I am afraid we do not have specific instructions for folding the jacket into the pocket. It can fit neatly in, in any way.

What is the difference in terms of intended use between the pro lightweight shadow jacket and this one?  

Asked by: TorstenMagne
They are intended for a similar use, to be used when it starts raining. The Gore-Tex jacket is guaranteed to keep you drier for longer.
