Or, for layering, as modeled above. Available from Rapha, these lightweight jerseys are made from their eyelet Sportwoolâ„¢, 25% merino wool and 75% polyester. Available for $175 in light blue or white, the shirt has two large pockets and a zippered “ballast” pocket in the rear.

Yes Rapha is expensive, but…
I would rather have one Rapha jersey than 2,3,4 crappy synthetic ones.
RE: the Classic & Country jersey’s
1. fits me perfectly, better than almost all other jersey’s
.. which is just lucky for me, and it may not fit YOU…
2. does not stink
3. In the heat, it works better than classic wool jerseys (often short zips and same or higher wool content)
4. looks and feels great to me – it is the jersey that I reach for first.

Honestly I think that people who rip on Rapha the most are the ones who have not tried it.
Some of us would *give up other things* to buy it…
Rapha may mean “Bentley” to you, but it could equally mean “beans & toast for a month”
Take the chip off your shoulder…
