Long Sleeve Merino Base Layer

Rapha Long Sleeve Merino Base Layer

Redesigned with a proprietary 160gsm merino blend, the Rapha Merino Base Layer, here featuring long sleeves for extra coverage, delivers the perfect balance of breathability, insulation, and next-to-skin comfort. Whether you’re climbing in milder spring conditions or riding through crisp autumn mornings, this technical long-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 just the one base layer for 3 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.
