How to Measure

For accurate sizing, take your measurements whilst wearing minimal clothing and standing in a natural, relaxed position. Measure directly against your body rather than over clothes, as this will provide the most precise results. Use a soft measuring tape and ensure it sits flat but not too tight against your skin.

1. Chest: Measure around the fullest part of your chest and across your shoulder blades. Keep the tape parallel to the ground and ensure it passes under both armpits.
2. Waist: Measure around your natural waistline, typically where you naturally bend at the sides. This should feel comfortable and not restrictive.
3. Hips: With your feet together, measure around the fullest part of your bottom and hips. This measurement is particularly important for trousers and lower-body garments.
4. Inside Leg (Inseam): With bare feet, measure from the top of your inside leg (at the crotch) down to just below your ankle or where you normally wear your trousers over your shoe. For the most accurate measurement, this should be taken whilst standing upright.

Rohan Trousers & Specific Fit Guidance

Rohan specialises in high-quality trousers designed for outdoor activities, travel, walking, and hiking. The brand has refined trouser design over more than 50 years, incorporating technologies such as waterproof breathable drop-liners, Durable Water Repellency (DWR) treatment, and Dynamic Moisture Control (DMC). Trousers are available with features including:

• Stretch fabrics: 2-way and 4-way stretch materials for unrestricted movement during climbing, scrambling, and hiking
• Waterproof options: Designed to keep you dry in wet conditions whilst maintaining breathability
• Lightweight & packable: Perfect for travel, compressing efficiently into luggage without excessive bulk
• Quick-drying: High-wicking fabrics that dry rapidly after exposure to moisture
• Multiple pocket options: Security zip pockets and D-rings for attaching gear
• Ergonomic panelling: Extra durability and stretch in high-stress areas during activity

When selecting Rohan trousers, ensure you have measured both your waist and inside leg accurately. The brand offers a wide range of inside leg lengths to accommodate different heights, from Short (29") through to Unfinished (36"), which can be tailored to your specific requirements.

Rohan Merino Wool & Technical Tops

Rohan's range of merino wool and technical tops feature blends combining merino wool with polyester for durability and ease of care. Popular styles include the Merino Union 200 and Merino Union 150 collections. These tops offer excellent odour resistance, rapid drying times, and versatility for layering. Merino Union 200 tops typically feature 60% merino wool and 40% polyester with 5-hour drying times, whilst Merino Union 150 options contain 63% merino wool and 37% polyester with approximately 3-hour drying times. Many customers appreciate that these tops can be worn as standalone pieces or as effective base layers, with no ironing required.

Sizing Tips

• Check product-specific size charts: Whilst Rohan maintains consistent sizing across its range, individual items may vary in fit depending on cut, style, and fabric. Always reference the product-specific size chart when available before making a purchase.
• UK to US conversion: If you typically wear US sizes, remember that Rohan uses UK sizing. For women, UK 10 equates to approximately US 6; for men, Rohan's S size aligns with US S. Consult the brand's sizing charts or contact customer service if uncertain.
• Measure your existing trousers: For trouser fit, measure the waist and inside leg of a pair you already own and wear comfortably. This method often proves more reliable than body measurements, particularly for inside leg length.
• Consider the activity: Different Rohan garments are engineered for different purposes. Hiking trousers may fit differently than everyday travel trousers. Walking-specific pieces incorporate ergonomic panelling and additional stretch in areas subject to greater stress.
• Layering fit: Many Rohan pieces are designed to be layered, particularly base layers and mid-layer tops made from merino wool blends. If planning to layer your Rohan garments, you may wish to size up slightly to accommodate clothing worn underneath.
• Read customer reviews: Customer feedback on specific products provides valuable real-world insight into fit, durability, and performance. Look for reviews from customers with similar body types or activity levels to gauge how a specific item might suit you.
• Quality materials and care: Many Rohan garments feature merino wool, which naturally resists odour and wrinkles. Merino wool tops typically require no ironing and dry quickly, making them ideal for travel. Familiarise yourself with care instructions to maintain the performance of your Rohan clothing.
• Contact customer service: The Rohan team are known for providing friendly, knowledgeable sizing advice. If you're uncertain about which size to select, don't hesitate to reach out directly with your measurements and details about how you plan to use the garment.
