The all new Rapha Commuter jacket, a first for the British brand, has been designed specifically for the city commute using a hard-wearing waterpoof construction that is exclusive to Rapha, it says.

Its construction is said to offer waterpoofing thanks to its hydrophobic membrane that gets DWR coating to help bead water off the jacket as well as fully taped seams to help stop ingress. The fabric is microporous, which is breathable and is claimed to be overall very durable to help endure the many seasons to come.
You'll be able to purchase one of these jackets straight away, and they cost £100. They're available in both men's and women's fit, with four colours on offer: yellow, bright orange, hi-vis pink and black.
