Italian outdoors brand ROA introduce their latest collection for AW23 featuring technical outerwear a plenty, goose down gilets & a range of cold weather accessories.
I remember working with ROA & Slam Jam back back in my Real Clobber Magazine days when they originally launched the brand. It was strictly Vibram soled boots in the beginning with a few select stockists across the UK & Europe. The apparel side of things really turned things up to 11 for ROA. The growing passion for technical outdoors gear with the term “Gorpcore” spreading like wild fire across community driven hikes across the world. What was probably cycling about 10 years ago, closely followed by running, is now most definitely hiking with ROA soldering their seams across the scenic landscapes of social media. Those who know their GOOPiMADE’s from their Goldwin’s will of course know just how quickly ROA has become one of the go to brands for technical outerwear enthusiasts. Launching their apparel side of things in 2022 it’s literally been just over a year. The latest ROA AW23 collection is probably their best collection to date and features everything from Micro Ripstop Nylon jackets to 3D Knit balaclavas.
Outerwear once again takes centre stage for the latest ROA AW23 collection. Down jackets go all out with heavy goose down insulation & lightweight micro-ripstop nylon fabrics. Windbreakers are packable with lightweight ripstop fabrics for added durability. Down vests are inspired by biophilic designs and feature reinforcements in high wear areas. Other highlights from the latest collection includes soft shell technical pants, logo tees, handmade knitwear & 3D Knit balaclavas. Shop the drop now at mint. via the link.
