Core Rain Jacket III - Women's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I carried the Core Rain Jacket III through a training block with unpredictable weather, and its low bulk meant I never had a reason to leave it behind. The reflective armband gave me extra confidence riding home after dark."

We look for rain layers that riders will actually carry, not leave behind because they take up too much space, and the Rapha Core Rain Jacket III earns its spot in a jersey pocket through smart material choice. Lightweight Japanese fabrics keep the packed size low without sacrificing the windproof protection that matters most on a fast, wet descent.

A 2-way AquaGuard zipper is the functional centerpiece, allowing riders to access jersey pockets without removing the jacket and to vent quickly once a climb or a sprint effort raises the internal temperature. Reflective detailing on the armband and Rapha logo adds a layer of visibility for low-light conditions, an important consideration for riders training through shorter daylight hours or commuting before sunrise.

We recommend the Core Rain Jacket III for riders who want a packable, windproof layer ready for unpredictable weather without adding meaningful bulk to a jersey pocket or saddle bag.
