Product Information

Full details

The Rapha Core Jersey is designed for female cyclists seeking high-performance comfort and value in mild to warm conditions. Its key benefit lies in its exceptional breathability and a comfortable, unrestrictive fit, making it ideal for everyday riding, training, or commuting. A minor caveat is its regular fit, which is less compressive than Rapha's Pro Team range, meaning it may not be suitable for riders seeking a very close, aerodynamic fit.

FAQs

What makes the Core Jersey suitable for mild to warm conditions?

The jersey is constructed from a 100% recycled polyester fabric specifically developed by Rapha for superior breathability and excellent moisture management, which are crucial in warmer weather.

How does the fit of the Core Jersey compare to Rapha's Pro Team range?

The Core Jersey features a regular fit that is less compressive and not as close-fitting as the Pro Team range. It's designed for comfort across a wider range of body types.

Can I wear a base layer under the Core Jersey?

Yes, the jersey's fabric offers excellent moisture management whether worn against the skin or layered over a base layer, making it versatile for varying temperatures.

What is the primary material of the jersey?

The updated fabric is made from 100% recycled polyester yarns.

How should I wash the jersey?

Machine wash on a delicate cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Hang dry or tumble dry on low.

Are the pockets secure?

Yes, the pockets have been revised for extra security, providing a reliable place to store your essentials during rides.

What is the purpose of the silicone at the hem?

A striped silicone print is featured inside the hem to prevent the jersey from riding up at the back, ensuring a stable fit while cycling.

Troubleshooting

Jersey feels too loose

Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the Rapha sizing chart. This jersey features a regular fit, which is less compressive than other Rapha lines.

Fabric is not wicking moisture effectively

Ensure the jersey is clean. Detergent residue or fabric softeners can impede wicking properties. Follow care instructions carefully.

Collar is causing irritation

Ensure the zipper is fully closed or partially open as preferred. The shaped collar is designed to reduce irritation, but individual fit can vary.

Hem is riding up

Check that the silicone hem grip is clean and dry. Ensure the jersey is sized appropriately; an overly large jersey might have more tendency to ride up.
