Description

The latest product in our range to incorporate the natural wonder of merino wool, the Explore Merino T-shirt is soft against the skin, with natural sweat wicking and anti-odour properties. Compared to our other merino products, the t-shirt is made from a more durable merino blend to provide increased snag and abrasion resistance, shape retention and excellent thermoregulation at a lighter weight. Quick-drying and hard-wearing, this garment has been developed to withstand the rigours of multi-day bikepacking trips. Cut in the new Explore fit, the t-shirt’s sleeves are brought forward slightly which, along with a gusseted underarm panel, ensures sustained comfort when out riding while not constricting movement when off the bike.

PERFORMANCE MERINO

Made using a merino blend with added durability for improved snag and abrasion resistance, whilst maintaining natural sweat wicking and antibacterial properties.

OFF-THE-SKIN FIT

HANGER LOOP

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Essential Gear for Bike Packing Purchased for a multi-day bike packing trip in the PNW to be paired with the Cargo Bibs. If you don't have added pockets or bags, then this may not be a good option for you. Also, if it will be >90 Deg F, you might want a jersey for added cooling (I'd say the same for the synthetic version as well) as there is no air flow over your core. Solid construction and material thickness. Dries quickly and does not have the odor issues that you have with the synthetic explore t shirt. Works great as a post ride shirt when bike packing. Definitely would have in my stable for kit choices for bike packing and leisure riding around town.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from The best merino t-shirts but not my colorway These t-shirts are great. What I disliked is the combo of red with yellow....it looked much better in pictures. Somehow I prefer these merino t-shirts in darker colours and to be as subtle as can be. When they are muted, they simply are far more elegant and can even be worn in a work environment under a blazer and whatnot. Hence this t-shirt and I did not become friends but that is much more my taste (or lack thereof....who knows). The merino t-shirts otherwise are wonderful and I already have a couple in blue and light blue. I need to just get another black one and I'll be good.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great for adventures This is great for all types of adventures and travel. Fits great and cool looking. Shirt doesn’t stink and can be used for multiple days. I’ve worn it for riding and casually. It’s great for anything. Now I just need more colors. :-)

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Not as good… Not as good as the commuter merino - it feels like much less t-shirt for the money. It’s a much looser fit (half a size at least) and much lighter weight without the details just a reflective logo on the front and a loop on the back. I bought mine as an alternative because of restricted colour availability and I’m just about happy enough to keep it but, for what it is, I think it should be £10 cheaper than it’s selling for.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Poor fabric. Runs easily after the first wash. The shirt looks nice and fits perfectly. Fabic is soft and comfortable. My only problem with it is that after the first wash, the thread of the fabric runs easily. Shirt was hand washed and delicate fabric detergent was used. Very disappointed, for the price of the shirt I was expecting more.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great T-Shirt Nice sizing, looser fit than older Rapha and a decent length (44” chest, 6’2, XXL). Soft but sturdy material. Subtle Rapha styling. Wore it constantly for a 5 day tour in late summer U.K. and it was perfect, warm enough for the cold starts and breathable once it warmed up. Washed it once (more for the salt marks than anything) and it dried quickly. Definitely recommended.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from 2 out of 3 are ok Over the years I have bought 3 of these. The first was brilliant, the second one was poorly made and shrunk despite washing it correctly. So far this one is hanging in there but the quality does not fell as good as the original. Told Rapha about the 2nd one shrinking but alas they said it was my fault.

The brick colorway is different to last years, right? Seems to be more orange while last years was red (according to the picture on your website)?

Asked by: Marc2005
The Brick colorway is similar to the one from last year. The photo at the very top of the product page with the model wearing the shirt is a more accurate depiction of the color.
