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. However the Gore-tex Infinium fabric promises to stop light rain, be highly breathable while being completely wind resistant making it a good companion for winter riding off-road in the UK. 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…
