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 Volition Daypack 25

£75.00

When used on colder, wetter walks earlier on in the year, the Rohan pack coped handsomely. The waterproof zip design and rugged outer fabric mean that in all but torrential rain the insides remain dry, without having to rely on drybags quite so much. Of course, opening the zip design does mean that everything inside is quickly exposed to the ...

Rohan On Track Cargo Shorts 2011

£55.00

The Rohan On Track Cargo Shorts’ fabric is a very tough nylon that looks and feels like a heavy cotton but is fast-drying. You get two lines of stitching too so they should be very durable. For comfort there is a nice big crotch panel and the waist is elasticated. So while these shorts do not use a stretch material ...

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 ...

Rohan Superfine Merino Zip 300

£80.00

A pure merino top that relies on the natural material for its magic. Although it uses a superfine blend, the natural itch of the merino was still present at first although it soon calmed down. Wicking and sweat absorption are up to the usual high standard of merino, with moisture being quickly drawn to the outside of the fabric, although ...

Rohan Striders 2011

£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 Essential DC Trousers 2010

£65.00

It was not long ago that zip-offs were definitely uncool. Now the coolest trousers have multi-length zip-offs! The Rohan Essential DC Trousers can be zipped off to calf length or to knee length. This is practical and fashionable, so Rohan is onto a winner in my view. Like all Rohan gear these trousers are perhaps better suited to travel than ...

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 ...

Rohan Cloudbase 2010

£74.00

Notably heavier and bulkier than some. Feature a lining, which feels comfortable even against the skin. Performance-wise spot-on; keeping copious downpours on the outside and never once getting clammy on the inside. They have a perfect combo of elastic and drawcord at the waist and they boast hip-length two-way leg-zips. The single seat pocket proved useful. Slightly bulky for emergency ...

The Rohan Cloudbase multi-activity jacket uses very waterproof and extremely breathable fabric; very relaxed design; mesh lining adds comfort; hood rolls to collar; hood has stiffened peak. 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 Uplanders

£65.00

Made from an incredibly tough polyamide fabric that still manages to feel soft and comfortable against the skin, the Uplanders are generously sized, so try them on carefully, and the legs are very loose-fitting. They do have a comfortable elastic panel in the waist and come with a nice belt. Out in the hills, they are a good compromise for ...

But no zips on the two front pockets; back pocket zip too small for use with big gloves; Velcro waist adjuster does not feel secure and ...

Rohan Mountain Pas

A huge jacket, long at the hem and baggy in the body. Good adjustment at the cuffs and hood, though, and a pleasant rustle-free fabric. Soft fleece chin guard. Kept the weather out, but heavy and bulky in a pack and rather hot on milder days. The hood worked well, but the horizontal opening hip pockets were difficult to reach ...

Rohan Cloudbase 2008

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! ...
