Rapha Women's Trail Gore-Tex Infinium Jacket review: Water repellent, but punches above its weight

Rapha womens trail gore tex infinium jacket.

The Rapha Trail Gore-tex Infinum Jacket has found its way into our guide to the best waterproof cycling jackets, but it’s technically only water resistant.

The jacket dances the line between full-on MTB performance and gravel riding really well, while still looking good off the bike. I’ve picked it up just to walk to the shops because of the nice casual fit, and looks pretty darn smart. But you don’t want to hear about a stroll to the shops, you might want to hear how it went down on a cold, and very wet day on my gravel bike though…
