Simply cannot get enough of this rapha shadow jacket, spoke about it before but the more I wear it the more it amazes me,
Wind
Rain
Shine
Riding through the Shropshire hills all weekend it would vary from stiff breeze and rain to sunny and quite warm, just left it on the whole 140 kilometers, didn't matter (even on the climbs). Breathed when it needed to, stopped water when it needed too, all I did was zip it up and down half way occasionally.
Fit is so trim even with a anti bonk stack of food stuffed in the jersey pockets
While friends were stopping to take layers on and off the jacket kept trucking, never leaving me uncomfortable.
I'm sure at the extreme wet and the extreme hot it would be an issue, but for the temperamental British weather? Perfect.
never thought such a price tag would be justified for a seemingly niche bit of kit, but here we are.
