    Description

    The checkered flag icon

    With the Check Classic Jersey, Rapha pays homage to the golden age of trade team kit design. The 1960s were a time when sponsor logos weren’t so loud, the patterns were understated and the riders who wore the jerseys went on to become style icons that transcended the sport. Boasting the same fit, fabric and performance features of our best-selling Classic Jersey II, this jersey has a checkered flag pattern around the torso that doesn’t break at the full-length zip. The wool blend used for the jersey is Rapha Performance Merino 150 (RPM150), a highly technical, adaptable fabric that guarantees a timeless, luxury look. RPM150 is lightweight, soft and breathable, both helping your body breathe in hot conditions and keeping it warm when the temperature drops. And for added protection, pair the jersey with the Check Classic Gilet. Wherever your ride takes you, celebrate cycling style in luxurious comfort.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Gorgeous wool (blend) jersey I have a love for Rapha's wool blends. You get most of the benefits of wool (odor resistance, wicking, warmth when wet), without the biggest drawbacks (a tendency to stretch asymmetrically, lack of structure, scratchiness.) This is a very nice jersey. Flawless fit and finish. Beautiful design. Highly recommended.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from My Favorite Jersey I bought the gray because I could never keep the white clean. I love the throwback to my 1975 Puegot jersey and I love the style, In fact with the shorts and matching socks, this is my favorite kit. I can carry an extra Co2 and tube in the small zip pocket which is handy.

Dont Sleep !

    Rated 4 out of 5 by from Smooth and good looking Already after the first ride I was happy about this shirt. The "filo" of the material has a very nice quality and design and function nearly top. The zip could work better a little bit better... I have the M and compared to my Brevet and Superfly jerseys this one sizes a little bit larger.

    Rated 4 out of 5 by from Comfortable, Classic Style I bought this jersey about a month ago and was excited about its classic design, race cut like fit and the weight of the fabric. Since wearing it in various conditions, both hot and cool, the jersey is holding up as expected. I find that on warmer days, I have to wear a lighter base layer or no base layer. My only compliant is with the zipper. For some reason, at the point of attachment when zipping/unzipping, the zipper gets stuck and I have to use a little extra effort to fully unzip the jersey.

    Is it the same weight and thickness to the flyweight jersey? Thanks

    Asked by: Vanna
    Hi, the answer is no. This is in fact more similar to the Classic Jersey II, not to be mistaken with the Flyweight version.
