  • The Full Story

    The Aran Cap has been made using our 2-Layer Barricade Standard, this means that its waterproof, windproof, yet still breathable. The 2-Layer Barricade Standard is made up of an outer waterproof membrane and a brushed micro fleece lining. The lining protects the membrane but also keeps your head soft, warm and comfortable, keeping the elements at bay when you’re out climbing hills on a wet day.

    In addition to the 2-Layer Barricade Standard, a Durable Water Repellency finish has been added so that rain beads up and rolls off the stiffened peak, keeping your head and the fabric dry. Ear flaps have been added to shield your ears and neck from the weather and a removable and adjustable chin strap is accessible to keep the hat secured and in place in high winds.

Lightweight - Weight 100 Grams

We were the original lightweight revolutionaries. Back in the 1970’s we realised that cutting weight without losing performance meant that you can take less and do more. Everything we make is engineered to achieve this.

Low pack size is a benefit whether you’re packing for a day’s walking or for the trip of a lifetime. We continually scrutinise fabric specification and garment construction to minimise the packed size of our clothing. The actual pack size is tested and listed.

All Rohan clothing is designed to be very fast drying – as much a benefit for unexpected downpours as anything else. It’s easy to wash and often needs no ironing. Almost all garments will dry overnight, meaning you can take less with you. We test every item and list its drying time.

  • Durable Water Repellency

    Our DWR finish is an advanced treatment which dramatically increases the water repellency of our fabrics. On its own, it offers a useful level of shower resistance; used in conjunction with our Barricade technology, it reduces the tendency of the face fabric to wet out and maximizes breathability.

  • 2-Layer Barricade

    The Barricade standard gives you reassurance of a high level of waterproof protection. All of our waterproofs must meet our Barricade Standard to be ten times the British standard for waterproofing.

    The waterproof fabric of the garment has two layers. The water-repellent outer fabric and the PU hydrophilic membrane are bonded together. In addition, a loose lining protects the membrane from the inside.
