The shakedry material is in a class of 1. Just vary the baselayer and it is a genuine sub 10c running and cycling phenomenon. No need to decide what to wear and what waterproof jacket to carry. buy one before they vanish
When will a reviewer, any reviewer, point out that Rapha only put reflective or bright bands on the left arm - ie good for RHD countries, but if traffic drives on the left, tough - eg the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, you know, small markets 🙄for the price you'd expect them to sell clothing that's designed to protect riders in the country they are selling their goods not just limit the range of clothing they stock to limit costs 😀🥺
Shakedry my be small to pack, lightweight etc. but far to sensitive. Even the smallest thorn or bump agains anything will cause damage. I prefer the Castelli Gavia. The most breathable 3layer rain jacket with reasonable packing dimensions I ever owned. And you can also use running vests with 2l bladders etc. without bothering to damage it. Also a good color and reflect details. Would highly recommend over any shakedry (I own the gore c5 + the insulated variant).

yea but they never figured iut how to make it non black, which kinda dumb for something meant to be worn in the rain
It's an amazing material but because it's not sandwiched like normal gore Tex it's not as durable so bear that in mind if you are getting one.
Downfall is it's useless when windy
Not durable and only comes in black. No thanks.
100% windproof...
The Altura lasted about 2 hours before I was soaked through while doing LEJOG last year , I opened a pocket to take my phone out a water fell out lol.
What is the point for waterproof jacket without a hood?

for the shakedry race, do the stretch pannels wet out? is the one way zipper an issue?
Rain Drops: "GORETEX, we miss you!"
Surprised not to see Assos in there. I've had an Assos lightweight packable for years. Use it all year round and always waterproof.
Should you have noted that Gore Shakedry is being discontinued

Shakedry material is no longer being made so good luck getting one now.
Just ordered one online, they still had over 10 pieces in my size still in stock
Why does rain keep 'FALLING'. After millions of years, one would expect rain to control its balance!
Rain clears the air of pollution. It is needed to keep plants alive too.
@@davidadamus177 it was a joke . . . FALLING ---- Balance?
no such thing as a waterproof cycling jacket. the myth of goretex - haha!
Shame on you for not including women's jackets in this!!
shame stops raindrops🤣
Clearly, he should have worn some
