Rohan Stravaig 35 (2011)

£85.00

A less-ventilated pack than some, with a channelled back rather than suspended mesh. The benefit of a channelled back system is that it keeps the load very close to your centre of gravity so that even heavy loads feel stable. The obvious downside is that you don’t get the airflow offered by suspended mesh back systems. There’s plenty of padding ...

Rohan Cloudcover

£145.00

A roomy and comfortable jacket that’s cut long to keep your hips dry, although the arms are rather short. It’s quite a smart-looking jacket, made from soft polyester fabric that’s easy to move around in. There’s plenty of space in the hood to bury your head into, with adjustment at the side and back and a large stiffened peak. You ...

Rohan Menang Tech

£120.00

These boots are actually engineered by Brasher, so anyone who’s a fan of the brand – particularly women with wide feet – will probably like these. They’re made from full-grain leather, with a fairly low ankle cuff and a chunky sole. They’re lightweight and they’ve got a surprisingly stiff midsole that will cope with some pretty rugged terrain. The lacing ...

Rohan Trailblazers

£75.00

A great pair of trousers for the walker looking for something a bit more technical, without looking overly technical. Stretchy fabric works really well at boosting comfort levels and there is enough wind resistance in them to keep out hilltop breezes, or at least reduce their impact. That wind-blocking also helps them to work effectively over a range of temperatures ...

Rohan Dry Ascent / Dry Roamers 2011

£100.00

The Rohan Dry Ascent / Dry Roamers trousers prefer their waterproofing to be a little more covert. Rohan amusingly describes the Dry Ascent as ‘waterproof trousers for people who hate wearing waterproof overtrousers’, and that’s about the size of it. The face fabric has one of those ‘it’s not really waterproof, is it?’ feels. The secret is Rohan’s Barricade, a ...

Rohan Chomrong 2011

£105.00

The Rohan Chomrong weighs 1092g (pair, size 11); Barricade is an extremely breathable waterproof lining; leather and synthetic upper very durable; toe box and rand offer good protection; outsole has good stiffness; outsole offers good lug pattern for grip without clogging on softer ground. Not a lot wrong here, but lots of shoes offer similar performance and some are slightly ...

Rohan Lapka Tech 2011

£125.00

The Rohan Lapka Tech weighs 1416g (pair, size 11); synthetic and suede upper; Barricade waterproof lining; very aggressive Vibram outsole lug pattern for mud; good sole stiffness for rocky ground; solid toe box for protection. But boots with less mesh and stitching will be more durable; this is the Brasher Lithium rebranded, so it may suffer from the same durability ...

Rohan Furnace

£50.00

A warm but bulky jacket, made from a fairly heavyweight fleece fabric. The fit is generous – long in the arms and at the hem – but the chunky cuffs are stretchy, and easy to pull up if things do get a bit warm. The hip pockets, which are protected by zippers, are also mesh-lined so can also be used ...

£80.00

The Rohan Striders weigh 498g (size 38); four-way stretch Multi-flex fabric (92% nylon + 8% elastane); relatively heavy fabric for more durability; brushed lining on waist for extra comfort; three zipped map-sized pockets around waist; hidden security pocket; articulated knees; wide belt loops. But no adjustment at the ankle cuff; no extra reinforcement.

Rohan Raid eVent 2010

£85.00

The Rohan Raid eVent has a waterproof eVent lining; mesh upper improves breathability; well-protected toe box; very supportive heel cup; very well-cushioned underfoot; reasonable Vibram outsole. But 1144g (pair, size 11) is getting very heavy; it just feels ‘clumpy’ (but is okay for walking).

Rohan Roamers

£55.00

Really comfortable trousers, with lightweight soft, stretchy fabric, and a flattering, slimline cut that’s lovely to walk in. Out in the hills, the warmer fabric is a good compromise between summer and winter use. They soaked up a shower quicker than most, although they did dry quickly afterwards. The fabric isn’t as tough as some, so watch out for signs ...

But 614g (men‘s M) is relatively heavy; pocket access is easily obscured by rucksack belts; hood drawcords are left to fly in face; hood fit and movement is not good.

Rohan Cloudbase 2008

£100.00

Rohan is best known as an innovator and maker of travel clothing, and in my view most of its products are better suited to travel than mountains and hill-walking. However, the Rohan Cloudbase is a new general-purpose jacket that pushes the boundaries of the brand and it is actually ideal for general walking on easier terrain as well as travel! ...

£80.00

These hill-walking trousers weigh 470g; 4 pockets that are all map-sized; zipped hidden security pocket; rear pocket; quite a baggy fit allows reasonable freedom of movement; elasticated waist with belt and fly; contoured leg profile. But baggy fit means the legs tend flap and get muddy and wet easily.

But for the price it’s seriously slim on features and adjustment. Tog rating 2.7

Rohan Mountain Pass Overtrousers

£60.00

Rohan is well-known for making great travel gear, but these waterproof overtrousers are good enough for hill-walkers too, particularly as they feel more durable than some of the lighter options. They get 44cm side zips, which were long enough to allow easy fitting over my size 11 boots. The zips are fitted at the back of the calf and get ...
