Rohan – Technically Clever Clothing

Rohan has always followed its own path – in our designs, our fabrics and our priorities – like many of our customers, we find travelling alone is often the most enlightening experience. We’re not interested in ‘hitting key price points’ or designing ‘entry level products’ – we’ll leave that to others.

“We consider what functions our design will perform – what the user’s expectations will be – and how we can provide more than he expects… “

Rohan’s design philosophy has grown from our dedication and understanding of the most demanding needs for travel garments.

To help you understand... we see this as four elements. Lightweight, Packable, Easycare and Protection

We engineer our clothing to be lightweight without compromising on performance. As far as we're concerned light is right, which is why we publish the weights of all our garments in our customer catalogues.

Whether you're backpacking or meeting airline luggage restrictions you can make an informed choice.

The pack size is as important as the weight. Our aim is to enable travellers to carry a week's worth of clothing in airline hand luggage.

We scientifically measure the pack size of all our clothing. So if you are aiming to pack a 40-litre rucksack you don't have to wait until the night before to see if it will all fit in.

We design everything in our range to be both machine and hand washable. Most things we make will dry overnight. Most items require no ironing at all.

We also measure the drying times of all our garments and print the figures in our catalogue. No one else does this. But for the confident lightweight traveller it's essential information.

Rohan clothing is designed to offer weather protection in a wide range of climates, and protection from the threat of travel-related illness.

Our protection system provides a clear, objective indication of the levels of protection every garment in our range provides.

Rohan clothing is engineered to offer protection from the weather, in a range of climates, from the threat of theft and from certain travel-related illnesses. Our Protection Rating System cuts through the jargon and provides a clear indication of what to expect, and what to look for in a garment. Read about our Rohan Protection Rating System...
