Rapha Women's Merino Base Layer

The Rapha Women’s Merino Base Layer is designed to provide next-to-skin comfort and reliable temperature regulation for riding in a wide range of conditions. Available in both long and short sleeve options, it is made from high-grade New Zealand merino wool known for its natural breathability, moisture management, and odor resistance.

The fabric helps regulate body temperature by retaining warmth in cooler conditions while remaining breathable during higher-intensity efforts. Its soft, lightweight feel makes it comfortable for all-day wear, whether used as a standalone layer in mild weather or as part of a layered system in colder conditions.

Cut specifically for a women’s fit, it features a refined V-neck with finer binding than the men’s version, along with set-in sleeves for a natural, comfortable fit in the riding position. Flatlock stitching reduces friction and helps prevent chafing, improving comfort under bib straps and backpacks during longer rides.
