Rapha Women's Core Rain Jacket II Raincoat

Rapha Women's Core Rain II raincoat for women in black. Rapha reference: CR03XXBLK

All-purpose waterproof jacket

The original Core Rain Jacket set a new benchmark in everyday weather protection; Its successor raises the bar even further by incorporating improved technical details and a new look. Made with a waterproof but lightweight fabric, the Core Rain Jacket II is the ideal outerwear for routes with a chance of rain and wind. It folds up enough to easily store in your back pockets, ready to pull out when it starts to rain or the wind picks up. The jacket's styling has been updated including contrasting white logos on the back and chest, as well as a signature armband to help you be seen in dull weather.

To keep the jacket in place, no matter how bad the weather, we redesigned the elastic hem cord for a more secure fit. The cord is now lower, hidden between two layers of fabric so it doesn't get in the way. The jacket has fully taped seams and an AquaGuard® zipper for waterproofing. Six ventilation holes under the armpits allow heat to escape when you ride hard, while the raised collar and elastic inner cuffs prevent it from escaping when it's cold. Reflective elements have been added to the sleeves and back to improve visibility in low light.
