Rapha Women's Merino Base Layer

Redesigned with a proprietary 160gsm merino blend, the Rapha Women's Merino Base Layer delivers the perfect balance of breathability, insulation, and next-to-skin comfort. Whether you’re climbing in the summer sun or riding through crisp autumn mornings, this technical short-sleeve base layer ensures effective thermoregulation, keeping your body temperature under control as conditions change. Naturally anti-bacterial, itch-free, and odour-resistant, it guarantees lasting comfort on long rides without the worry of irritation or unpleasant odours. Riders who want one base layer for all seasons will find this the ultimate versatile solution.

Built to perform as hard as you do, the updated design introduces additional elastane for a closer, more comfortable fit that works seamlessly under Rapha jerseys. The performance merino fabric is now lighter, more durable, and engineered to reduce bulk and moisture retention, giving you a dry, irritation-free feel even on the toughest rides. Flatlock seams further minimise chafing, while the fabric’s strength ensures this base layer will withstand repeated use.
