The same gear worn by Rapha Condor Sharp pro team riders is now available for sale through Rapha.cc. Shown above is the team Rain Jacket, a more robust version of the stowaway (but still folds down to fit into a jersey pocket) with a windproof outer. It has a slim fit with longer tail, fully taped seams and neoprene cuffs to keep everything warm and dry and prevent water and cold air from sneaking in at the wrists. Breathable panels under the arms help vent excess moisture. The zipper tops out into a fleece-lined zip guard, and reflective piping on wrist and hips keep you visible on dark, stormy nights. MSRP is £190.
