Description
The Core Rain Jacket is the ideal outer layer for rides with a chance of rain and wind. Extremely lightweight, it folds down small to comfortably fit in your back pocket, ready to be whipped out when it starts raining or the wind picks up. Colour matched throughout, the jacket has a clean, refined finish with collar tipping and a subtly stitched-in Rapha armband.
The jacket has fully taped seams and an AquaGuard® zip for waterproofing. Six ventilation holes under the armpits allow heat to escape if you’re riding hard while the on-bike fit is aided by an adjustable draw cord at the hem and elasticated inner cuffs, which ensure a perfect fit on your wrists. Reflective elements have also been applied to the sleeves and rear for improved visibility on the roads.

First venture into Rapha kit
This was my first venture into Rapha kit and I'm delighted with it. I'm 1.8m and 64kg, I went for the small and it fits very well.
The jacket is very warm, although not its primary function. The zip is easy and the collar comfy even when zipped up fully.

Excellent Purchase
Bought this about 3 3 weeks ago and it didn’t stop raining for 2 weeks after that. An excellent fit and remained dry as a bone throughout my commute each day without getting over heated and uncomfortable. A timely purchase

Great buy for those raining days!

Lightweight Rolls Small and Keeps Rain Out
After carrying in my back pocket for a few weeks (lightweight, rolls small), l finally got to test the rain jacket on a wet UK afternoon. Only out for an hour but it kept me dry (keeps rain out), without overheating or sweatiness. Perfect!

Great quality
Excellent pro quality with nice design. It is really waterproof, great for British weather! Beware though, sizes are tricky. Usually in cycling clothes i take one size up, here one size up ended up extremely big. Since this is waterproof jacket i don't mind (my girlfriend has the same and she had same issue with female version).

Good rainjacket
I have "tested" the jacket on the Col de Gavia in the Italian Alps at 2.600 meters in a thunderstorm and it kept my torso dry, so I guess that it will keep me dry in any weather conditions...

Lightweight, cool and good water resistance
Taken this out in a fairly heavy commute and it was very good at keeping the rain off but I never felt hot and sweaty as I do with some other coats I have. Perhaps on a longer ride in warmer weather it might not be as good, long term also no idea how the water resistance will last but can always re-coat it

One of my favourite purchases yet.
This jacket is great, I run a Large in pro team jersey and wanted a comfy fit.
I went an XL and it fits great.
Haven’t ridden in the rain yet but made a good substitute to gilet and arm warmers on a cool morning.

How many layers can one get under this garment? I live in Pennsylvania USA so I am worried about fit after I put a longsleve under the jacket. I am 155lbs, and 6 2. I apologize in advance for english measurements.
This Jacket is designed to be layered and would be able to accommodate a Baselayer and a Longsleeve Jersey

How easy or difficult is it to clean off road spray stains or mud from the brighter colored jacket?
Mud and natural materials will wash off when following instructions, but oil-based stains will be harder to move as the material is an artificial, oil-based fibre

Is the fabric breathable e.g. as the Classic Rain Jacket II?
