Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very Impressed Nabbed this Brevet GoreTex in Red during Rapha sale. Very happy so far, I wanted to wait for a few rides before reviewing. Firstly it’s great to have a colour variety now, im always hesitant to throw on a dark WP jacket on winter rides. So the bright colouring is a big plus straight away. I’ve worn this in torrential Irish showers and consistent light rain for 4 hours and it’s held up very well both times. Breathable and lightweight, paired with a thermal base layer and thermal jersey. Only minor issue is coverage at the back is a little short, expected maybe a longer ‘tail’ for greater coverage. Worth the outlay though.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Top Tier Rain Jacket! I took this jacket fast bike packing to Italy for a 3-week tour, and it performed flawlessly. This ended in the dolomites where we had some rain and very cold temperatures (early May). I was perfectly warm with the right layers and never got wet during the downpours. It breathes extremely well while keeping you bone dry. I'm 6'5 185lbs with largish shoulders and a lean build, and the large fit me well. I have long arms and the sleeves were actually long enough. The cuffs had the perfect amount of stretch to make putting it on while riding possible (unlike their pro team rain jacket). The zipper is super beefy and high quality. It does make zipping the jacket up require 2 hands once you get it started. I'd rather have this chunky zipper vs the more delicate prone to breaking ones. The storage strap is ingenious and makes it easy to pack the jacket down. Fit wise the jacket could be slightly longer (in the rear) but I'm a tall cyclist, so this is something I've always dealt with. Overall I'm super satisfied with the performance of this jacket and it might be my best piece of kit!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Perfect rain jacket…nearly. A great jacket that kept me bone dry in 4 days of relentless rain whilst working hard climbing the hardest climbs that Devon and Cornwall have. The one major flaw is the jacket just is t long enough at the back for a cycling jacket. I’m all legs with a short body and this barely covers your lower back. Very nearly great but not quite. I considered returning it but it’s waterproofing and breathability make the short rear just about forgivable.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Small is too small! At last a Rapha gore tex jacket. A bit of a shame there is no hood. Also sizing is very small. I am normally between small and medium so ordered a small. The small was almost an extra small so I returned it and exchanged for a medium. I am very slim 5’ 8” tall 60kg but the medium is borderline small and only just fits me. That said it is ok, and certainly keeps the rain off, and packs down small enough to put in a back pocket.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best lightweight waterproof owned so far Owned a gore shake dry before this but the fit of this jacket was so much better, it breaths so well, seems to hold up really well to a day in the rail and love the reflective detail and the blue.
Date published: 2022-06-27
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best In Class I’ve waited a couple years to buy a fully waterproof jacket because there aren’t many that combine the goretex fabric with good design details. Rapha finally delivered exactly the look, fit and material I was hoping for. The fit is trim, but not race-fit. The material is legendary. A garment I hope to ride with for many years to come.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect Rain Jaket Extremely light, compact, easy to carry and keeps me dry. I am usually an L in jackets but for this one I ordered the XL was the right fit (5'11" and 176 pounds)
Date published: 2022-07-20
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Quality jacket, very comfortable, with minor flaw An excellent quality jacket that as expected is really well made. It's already kept wind and rain at bay and remains comfortable to wear over long distances - exactly what I bought it for. However as other reviews have pointed out, the tail could be longer. This would make it more comfortable. It could also be a better fit at the waist. Whilst it fits my shoulders and chest, it's loose around the waist (I'm a very normal shape). Some more elastic would make it 5 stars.

I have a Men’s Pro Team Long Sleeve Training Jersey size XL which is a perfect fit. Would I be safe to get  both a Brevet Gore-Tex Rain Jacket and Long Sleeve Wind Block Jersey in the same (XL) size?

Asked by: Pilk from Tas
We do recommend the same size in these Brevet items, however, please note that the Brevet line is a more relaxed fitting line than the Pro Team line. If you prefer a skin-tight fit, we recommend sizing down in the Brevet line.

I am choosing between  Rapha Mens Pro team Gore-Tex jacket (with ACTIVE ) and Brevet with Pack-light Plus. Which is more breathable ?  Is it -  Brevet  Jacket  Breathability (g/m2/24 hours) is 15000 and Rapha Mens Pro team jacket 25000 ?  

Asked by: TadaSU
GORE-TEX rate their breathability using RET. Both items are extremely breathable <6 RET but the Active Pro item will have the edge over the Brevet - the laminate is slightly more breathable and the fit is a little closer to the body which optimises the thermal comfort (heat loss through evaporation). Overall both jackets are high performers optimised for their end use.

Is this the same material as the shake dry? If not does it have to be re-proofed after washing?

Asked by: P1les956
This is not shake dry material, but it also does not require proofing after washing.

What are the waterproof and breathability ratings of this jacket? I have a tendency to overheat when overdressed or when wearing a waterproof layer. 

Asked by: Overheat123
This is a GORE-TEX black diamond product, which means durable, long lasting, totally waterproof, windproof and very breathable performance. GORE-TEX laminates must meet a 28mtr water entry pressure when new and after being used. They also must pass 500hrs continuous and aggressive wash cycles. The product must be constructed in an approved GORE-TEX garment mill and pass a style approval test. The breathability of this product is a measure of the resistance to evaporative heat loss (Ret) and sits in an Ret category of very breathable. The black diamond Guaranteed to Keep You Dry is a promise of the most durably waterproof product on the market.

Is it ok for women? Is M men corresponding to L women?

Asked by: Lale
Women can wear this, but our Women's gear is larger in the hips than our Men's gear, but is a bit smaller in the chest and waist. We would recommend sizing down to a size M in Men's gear if you wear a size L in Women's gear.
