A high-performance expedition jacket, that is practical, functional and incredibly protective, managing the demands of heat, sun and biting insects.
Read more…This multi-pocketed hip-length jacket features five zipped security pockets in total, one internal and four external, allowing the wearer to carry all essential items needed on any trip. An adjustable waist drawcord and cuffs have been provided for a closer fit and maximum versatility. This is the ultimate expedition/ trekking jacket, with the styling to work just as effectively in the city.
Our designers created a large vent on the rear of the jacket for increased airflow, improving breathability. Insect Shield® technology has been treated on the entirety of the jacket for long-lasting, effective and convenient insect protection.
Made using a combination of advanced Polyamide and Elastane for incredible and long-lasting durability, comfort and freedom of movement. These modern fibres have a Dynamic Moisture Control finish, keeping you feeling cool and comfortable even in hot and humid conditions.
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.
Fabric:
Main 94% Polyamide 6% Elastane. Other 82% Polyamide 18% Elastane
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.
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.

At last a replacement for my very old and well loved Assignment jacket. Unlike other reviewers I did not buy this for walking but for travel. Its pockets are ideal to separate money, passport, tickets etc with room for snacks, a scarf and gel/face masks. I can now travel hands free. i like the colour although a choice would be nice, perhaps a black or navy. I'm 5'7" and found the length neat and practical for a jacket, its not a coat. Anyway I hope this is a return to the old Rohan way of security pockets in women's clothing too.
I tried this jacket in in the shop. It was far too short. The draw string waist was half way up my back and the sleeves were to short.
I like the colour. Didn’t like the big pockets. Also far too expensive for what it is.
Had my eye on this jacket for a while. I love it, just as nice as I expected. Feels lovely, looks good. Waist ties gather up the back giving it a flattering shape.
Very pleased with the Jacket, especially all the useful pockets. Colour was superb for a rural jacket, ideal for walking in. Fit and design great. fully satisfied with the product. Another colour to choose from would be a good idea, although I love green.
Really sad that my ideal jacket is far too fitted I am standard medium normally and my winter one is fine - why not ragland sleeves for movement walking and using binoculars. And it’s far too short. Ive had this problem before and I’m only 5ft 3 .
Love the colour and the pockets and price reasonable. Probably go for your men’s version but it’s not in green. Or I’ll have to go elsewhere.
Please, please, please give us a more inspiring colour. I would love to buy this jacket but it is such a horrible, draining, muted colour. I don’t want to spend every day on my walks looking as if I am about to vomit. It’s a colour that makes most people look ill. It’s meant for travel/exploring so how about a red, sky blue or even a honey colour? I want to be uplifted, not depressed.
