Great jacket, fit is right, needs pockets.
Great three season jacket, can’t figure out how you’re “supposed” to pack it up but it fits in a jersey pocket when rolled up. I just wish this jacket had pockets.

Good product
Does everything as in the description only during fast downhills the parachute fabric layer sounds like 250cc motorcycle

No pockets! Bought it cheap!
Fit is great, provides adequate warmth. Could definitely use a pocket or 4.

It is suitable for windy and cold day. I also like the color and cutting.

Great jacket for riding in colder temperatures.
Love this jacket! Does a great job of keeping you warm on colder rides but is breathable enough to be used in slightly warmer temps as well. I've used the jacket in the 0-10 degree C range and was always quite happy with it. Also keeps you dry when you hit some lighter rain showers and works well to protect you from the wind. Minimalist style and no pockets, but it does pack up well and can be stowed away in a jersey pocket.

Fabric nice, fit and pattern need love
I really like the fabrics in this jacket but the fit and patterning leaves a lot to be desired. Basically the arms have a really weird fit bc the underside uses a very stretch material and the top part has NO stretch whatsoever. If the over arm portion had more ease to the pattern then it would fit great. Also having worn a bunch of xxl jackets from rapha this one is very slim through the shoulders and upper arms. Not great

Please send me pockets
Fabulous product. Big miss lack of pockets. Pockets allow to use with pro team base layer. Requesting Rapha to send me pockets I will add myself. Great company.

An almost awesome Jacket
I really like the new version of the Brevet Insulated jacket mostly. I have the older version and it is much warmer as it is lined on the inside, unlike the new version. This has both Pro's & Con's depending on your expectations and usage.
PRO's - It's much lighter and dries quicker: You don't overheat in cool days pushing the miles due to lighter weight: Packs much smaller (ideal on bikepacking trips etc): The Octoloft lining is warm for its weight and comfortable against skin: As always i love having a two way zip.
CON's - It isn't as warm if you want this for much colder use: The zips wind barrier strip is totally ineffective, as it is so soft it folds out of the way and is not fit for purpose:
No pockets on the new model, which i think is a big miss. I realise the two way zip means you can reach to a jersey underneath, but I prefer this feature on the older model. A simple mesh pocket would suffice. Overall its still a great jacket, but it could be awesome with a few mods IMHO :)

Kept me warm
Did me proud on the "Ride to the Sun" Scottish edition. It was ready in my back pocket so as night fell and the temperature dropped , it provided the right amount of insulation and didn't feel bulky. The colour meant I was visible, which obviously is an important consideration in the darkness.

The perfect lightweight packable winter jacket
Love this jacket possibly, the best item of clothing I’ve bought this year. It’s great for starting out on a cool day and easy to pack into your jersey pocket if it warms up. The 2 way zip allowing you to vent the bottom of the jacket and have easy access to your jersey pocket is invaluable

Solid piece of kit
This piece is an excellent balance of lightweight and warmth. Have used it for cold skate ski sessions (10°F) and cool riding conditions. (30°-40°). Would score 5 stars, but the zipper is rather fussy to get started, and it’s a left-hand zip, which is annoying.

Solid performer, missing one thing
Great bit of kit, does really well to provide that crucial outer layer to keep you warm, breathable enough that you don't drown in your own sweat and love the two-way zipper. My only gripe is I wish it had at least one pocket (internal or external).

A few variations to previous
I have the first version of this jacket and 10/10. Wanting another color I brought V2 but finding the it had been lighten up with the inner layer remove that made it pack down smaller but in doing so being loser fit and no single pocket

Great Jacket
Great jacket, does exactly what it says, I had the previous generation one so when I had to replace it I chose to go for this again, my only criticism is that it no longer has the zipped back pocket which I was disappointed about.

Ok
Keeps the wind and light rain off but really for spring and autumn rather than winter. Not too cosy at the cuffs and collar and flaps a bit in the wind. Size up if broad across the shoulders as it is not stretchy.

Good for the sale price I paid
Works well, a little tight in the shoulder area. I’m about 5’10”-5’11” and range from 165-175lbs and the large fit for the most part with the exception of when I reach forward, I can feel the tightness.

Great product
Warm lightweight and reflective. Packs well into my jersey pocket. Two zippers help ventilate when its still old but you are getting warm up climbs. Great jacket, I recommend

It’s alright
Did not keep very warm or very dry during a storm and also I wish it had at least one pocket. Glad I got it on sale, cause even at the sale price is not really worth it.

Excellent lined, not insulated outer layer
Lightweight, lightly lined, wind-shedding outer layer. True to Rapha sizing,close but not con.strictive fit. Dark red is suitably visible. Recommended for what it is.

Men's Brevet Insulated Jacket
Love everything about the jacket with the exception of how tight it is around the chest. I've worn Rapha for years but this one just seems off.

Not really insulated, just an extra layer of fishnet cells inside the shell - will return because way too tight across chest/shoulders

brevet insulated jacket, stick a pocket on it
Great jacket, warm, snug fit and comfy, just think maybe a single zipped, mesh lined back pocket would be a good addition
