The Metro Crew is a reinvented classic sweater which doubles as a technical layer.
Read more…So versatile it can be dressed up for winter occasions or worn casually as part of your everyday wardrobe. However, with Dynamic Moisture Control it is a great layering option for some outdoor trekking.
Polyester has been used to create this strong, durable and super soft sweater. The fabric has a brushed back quality on the inside of the garment for extra warmth and comfort. Polyester is hydrophobic in nature and therefore quick drying and insulating, creating a perfect mid layer for winter walking.
Properties of the Metro Crew ensure the garment retains its shape and hence is good for harsh climates. However, Polyester’s non wrinkle, shrink and abrasion resistant makes this pullover extremely versatile and long lasting.
Dynamic Moisture Control finish has been applied to the material – this helps to wick away moisture from the body to the surface, where it can be evaporated quickly. This keeps you feeling cool, fresh and comfortable for longer.
The Metro Crew for Men has a separate cuff and hem for improved comfort and a more versatile appearance.
This is a casual relaxed crew can be worn over a technical base layer to build the foundations of a strong layering system for more serious outdoor use and adventure.

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.
DMC™ is a wicking treatment that rapidly spreads the moisture our bodies create across the surface area of a garment. This can be achieved through the technical construction of the garment or by a performance coating and ensures that the garment dries more quickly, encourages evaporative heat loss and helps you stay cooler and more comfortable for longer.

This is a really nice, comfortable sweatshirt or jumper. It looks very smart, has a luxurious warm feel and yet weighs very little.
I’ve been wearing Rohan for a long time and this is one of their best best products. The Medium size is, as usual, a really good fit for me. This garment has been cut slightly shorter than some other Rohan’s.
If I was buying this for outdoor activities like hiking, I might wish I’d got a Large, just for the additional length. However, it might not be such a good fit around the chest. For casual wear and travel, however, Medium is perfect.
The Metro Crew feels warm, but not hot, and would be great for autumn/ winter/ spring city breaks. It would be really comfortable to wear while travelling or it would be a great layer to pack, taking up little space or weight whilst being a really versatile layer to use on arrival.
The item I bought was a very cheerful red. I’m not so convinced by the slightly muddy green colour on offer now. In any event, a bigger choice of colours would be great.
Superb item in every respect and warm and comfortable BUT beware the sizes come up larger than usual. I have had Rohan clothing for 30 years and XL has always fitted perfectly but the XL in this item was too large around the chest and the sleeves too long and I recommend taking one size smaller than usual. No problem with returns.
Bought in the sale for general winter wear. It's lighter than expected but surprisingly warm for its weight. Worn inside the home and as a mid layer when outside in the cold. Extremely soft and comfortable. Easy to wash and dry.
Hopefully it will be made in a variety of colours in the near future.
Excellent sweatshirt, very light and warm. Good for round the house and mid layer for outwalking in the cold weather. Great value with 30% off
