Designed as a dependable workhorse for everyday cycling, the Core Thermal Long Sleeve Jersey uses a recycled polyester-blend fabric with a brushed inner surface for additional warmth on cooler rides. Breathable, moisture-wicking performance helps maintain comfort throughout longer days in the saddle.
The updated construction uses set-in sleeves to improve comfort in an on-bike position, while a refined collar is designed to reduce irritation. Updated rear pockets provide practical ride storage, and striped silicone at the hem helps keep the jersey securely positioned.
With Rapha's Regular fit, the jersey is designed to accommodate a range of body types and is less compressive and close-fitting than Rapha Pro Team clothing. It's intended for cool to moderate temperatures from 6°C to 12°C (43°F to 54°F).

Our staff find that Rapha generally fits true to size, but the intended fit varies by collection. Core, Classic and Brevet offer progressively more accommodating cycling fits, while Pro Team garments are deliberately close-fitting and aerodynamic. Trail and casual garments have a more relaxed cut. If you're between sizes, choose the larger size for comfort or the smaller size for a closer performance fit. Bib shorts are an exception to the sizing up rule – they're supposed to fit snugly, and sizing up can compromise the position of the pad and overall support.
