Excellent case
I use this case all the time. I like having the extra zipped pocket inside for my bank card in case we stop by a nice cafe! My phone (in a protective case) fits perfectly in here. Keeps your important items clean and dry, and slips easily into the back pocket of your jersey.

Perfect for my needs
I bought this case to keep my new Motorola G7 Power dry while cycling. It’s an attractive item, with plenty of room for the phone. It also has a divider to accommodate banknotes and a handy zipped pocket which is useful for keeping pesky change - usually after a cafe stop.

Reassuringly expensive!
I bought this for my husband and what a natty little case it is. If perfectly fits his phone, money and cards. The zip is so perfectly concealed from the elements you would not know it even had a zip. He is using it for non biking purposes as well as biking purposes.

Top Notch Accessory
What an important piece of kit, I didn’t know I’d need. Keeps my things dry and also removed the need for a saddle bag (unless it’s an expedition of course). The different sectioned areas let’s me keep my cards away from my cartridge, and my cartridge away from my tube.

Fits perfectly in my jersey pocket!
I love the flexibility of this case. It fits my plus size phone if that is what I want to use it for but it also fits a spare tube, tire levers, co2 canister. has extra pockets for valuables, looks great and was designed to put in the jersey pocket. O love this one.

Great size and material!
I have bought this because my phone and cards got wet from sweating at my back during training rides. The case fits perfectly for my Pixel 3 XL, some money and keys.
Very happy with the material which feels very waterproof and high quality. Zip is also waterproof.

it is the little must!
I bought this about 7 weeks ago. I was searching a while for the proper essential. I saw it with a cycling friend and I got it the same day. Fits in the pockets of the Jersey, all is save inside and my sweat is staying outside. My boyfriend got the reflecting case.

Does what it says - keeps your stuff dry
Nothing to criticise. It fits an iPhone 12 plus keys and a bit of cash (just in case). It has the main compartment plus a zipped pocket for keys, cash and debit/credit card, and an open pocket for other small bits. The case has kept my phone dry in torrential rain.

Early days but looks good, zip may be an issue
Case looks great and features such as the extra storage partitions inside are great. Haven't used it a great deal yet but finding the zip sticks a fair bit. Hoping that loosens up with more use but if it continues as it is this issue will become quite annoying.

Versatile and useful
Have just bought phone with great camera, for taking nice pictures on the street when cycling, but its size is big. So i bought this and really fit the phone, credit card, cash, and house keys. First time i used it on the heavy rainy day ride, and all are good.

Bigger phones need bigger cases!
I’ve always loved the essentials case. Perfect for your cycling needs - money, patches, slim multi tool and of course, your phone!
Recently updated to the iPhone 12 Pro Max and couldn’t squeeze it in the standard essentials case. No problem - buy a bigger one!

Best ride wallet out there
Had the smaller one for my iPhone 12 mini, upgraded to a 15 pro max this year and had to get a new Rapha sleeve. These have saved my phone and AirPods from getting soaked in downpours more than once. They look great and keep your stuff safe what’s not to like.

Great quality
The Rainproof Essentials Case is very well made from high quality materials, it is rainproof and protects my small essentials from the bad weather conditions. Besides that I like the minimal look of the black version. Highly recommended, it is great product!

Holds 6” phone with Otter cover
This large case is a light material with a water resistant zipper. Holds my phone, mask, credit cards, cash , key and still has room. It keeps things dry from perspiration. I’ve not used it in heavy rain but I think if will do the job. I’m pleased with it.

Simple and Effective Design
This is a well made case and looks like it should hold up well over time. My iPhone SE - 2020 (the same size as an iPhone 8) with an Otterbox Commuter case, fits with plenty of additional room. The large size case still fits easily into my jersey pocket.

Top quality phone case
Ordered this case to keep my phone dry and safer having dropped my last phone and shattered the screen! It’s a good size, carries my phone, money and a key in comfort. As you would expect from Rapha, the quality is very good and it feels a quality product.

Well made, but small...
Very well made for the price. The only problem with it is it could be slightly larger. I have an 11Pro Max, and an Otterbox Defender case, and it will not fit in this. If it had an extra quarter inch in width, and height, it would be absolutely perfect!

Rainproof Essentials Case
I bought this large case to replace my small case which no longer fit my phone as the sizes have increased so much. Lots of room for my phone and some spare bills just in case. I luckily haven't had any rain encounters but it looks like it seals well.

Excellent case to keep your essentials dry
The main compartiment keeps a large phone (like an iPhone XR) dry will providing room for an extra spare inner tube and CO2 container. The inside pocket is perfect for some money or an ID card. I can't imagine going out riding again without this case.

Easy and handy
ID card, key, cash, some coins, bloodpaspoort and cellphone all in one case (with a handy zippered divider). Makes it easier and faster to have all the stuff I need at hand. Not seen any rain yet, but looks very promising. Not cheap but high quality.

Rain proof case
Brilliant case, bought the small as well but with modern mobile phones it was a bit small, larger case fits perfectly in back of a cycling jersey. Excellent quality, keeps phone and items dry. Excellent service from Rapha with return of smaller case.

Quality storage.
No more storing my iPhone in a back pocket and whipping it out later to have the screen all fogged up and steamy from sweat after a ride. I can now store my keys, iPhone 10 and a small Thin credit card wallet holder and some change. I love this case!

Consistently the best cases I’ve had.
Bought the larger version of the case that I already use both for cycling, and as an everyday wallet, because of a phone upgrade. These cases just work ! Completely waterproof, zips that work, durable, and plenty of colours/ designs to choose from.

It’s really good
I think this is an excellent product. It is fully waterproof yet easy to open, and sits perfectly in a cycling jersey pocket. I have just returned from riding LEJOG and found the words printed inside (“Bon Courage”) to be strangely inspiring too.

An improvement on an already great product
This is my second Essentials case - I purchased this one to accommodate a new, larger mobile phone. This is a much improve product - more lightweight but just as robust, better water resistance of material & zip seal, even more stylish. Very happy!

I didn't realize how much I needed this
Now I carry my essentials (wallet, keys, phone) in one non-sloppy way, in one jersey pocket. Just the right size for the phone with its case. Yes, the phone is essential after that incident when I was cut off and the hospital became my next stop.

Beautiful
Brought this with the idea of fitting my iPhone X, which it does well, but if you need to carry an Epipen like me, it literally fits like a glove! fits my keys, card holder, epipen and airpods case all together in one, with room for way more too

Amazing Product
Delivered in super fast time and beautiful wrapped. The quality is noticeable from getting the package. This fitted my iPhone 13 Pro perfectly with some room. It’s amazing how much you didn’t know you need one until you get one! Just buy it!
