Practical, versatile and protective – great for those with a pioneering spirit. This is the ultimate short-sleeved protective shirt, perfect for both trek and trail.
Read more…Made from a blend of durable, technical fibres which feels like soft cotton, yet offers robust protection from elements. The short sleeves provide great ventilation and versatility.
Featuring two zipped chest pockets with a mesh lining that double up as chest vents. A large vent on the rear of the shirt has also been incorporated for increased airflow, improving breathability. Insect Shield® technology has been treated on the entirety of the shirt for long-lasting, effective and convenient insect protection.
These modern fibres have a Dynamic Moisture Control finish and Sun Protection UPF 40+, keeping you feeling cool and comfortable even in hot and humid conditions while protecting you against harmful UV rays. A clever design feature ensures the neck collar is shaped at the rear for extra protection against the sun.
UPF 40+ Sun Protection Note
All of our garments are tested for their Ultraviolet Protection Factor, and those that achieve a rating of UPF 40+ are noted as protection against UV. Garments awarded a 40+ UPF block 97.5% of UV radiation rating, so for every 40 units of radiation, 39 are blocked, and 1 contact the skin.
Insect Shield® Note
Insect Shield® technology converts clothing into convenient, comfortable and effective protection against biting insects. Each Insect Shield® labelled garment is treated with Permethrin, an invisible an odourless ingredient which protects against insects such as mosquitoes, ticks, ants, flies, chiggers and midges. The treatment is so tightly bonded to the fabric fibres that it retains effectiveness through the expected life of the product – well beyond the limits of most fabric finishes.

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.
This garment has been tested in accordance with recognised international standards for ultraviolet radiation protection – and has been awarded a rating of UPF 40+. The protection offered may be significantly reduced with extended wear or if the garment is stretched or wet. Any associated UV risks will vary according to individual skin type or medical history.
Losing the odd bit or bob when you’re close to home is rarely an issue, but losing car hire keys, passport, phone or wallet becomes more important than ever in a far off land. That’s why lots of thought goes into safer pockets – deeper, zipped and hidden.
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.

Overall a great shirt. The fabric feels substation all but not heavy and hot. Having two zipped breast pockets is excellent. I wore mine on a bike ride and didn’t have to worry about my credit cards falling out as I leant forwards.
Only three stars because all of the button holes are far too tight, Unbuttoning and buttoning the shirt for the first time was very heard. It’s eased up a little but still isn’t as I feel it should be.
First Class As Always
Thank You Rohan
Excellent shirt. It is a nice fit with useful inner zipped and outer buttoned chest pockets. It's a favourite already.
