At £125, the Rapha Women’s gilet is certainly not cheap. But as you would expect from that price, the fit, performance and appearance is top notch.

Equipped with three rear pockets, the gilet is designed to be worn from the start of your ride but is still small enough to be stashed into a jersey pocket.

Performance wise, it keeps the wind out completely and does an impressive job at keeping the elements at bay when that surprise rain shower strikes.

Price: £125
