Rohan Momentum lightweight waterproof jacket review

The Rohan Momentum packs down small and is waterproof and breathable, but do you want to wear it? Here's our review

The Rohan Momentum lightweight waterproof jacket strikes a nice balance between compactness (when it's stowed in its Packpocket) and usability. It means you can take it everywhere to pull out if the weather turns and it will keep you dry. The icing on the cake is that its styling won't put you to shame in the city or the mountains.

Understated style

Built-in Packpocket

Waterproof, windproof and breathable

Crumpled appearance

Fairly small hood on the women's version

Some may want a longer body

The Rohan Momentum lightweight waterproof jacket reviewed here is the 2022 version of this packable jacket. It's available for men in Park Green or Sunset Orange, and for women in Horizon Blue or Arizona Red for an RRP of £195. It's made from 100% polyamide and is designed to be waterproof, breathable and windproof when you need it, but it packs into a pocket so you can take it everywhere in case the weather turns. My partner and I have been putting both the men's and women's versions to the test to see how they compare to the rest of the best waterproof jackets on the market. Read on for my full Rohan Momentum jacket review.

Rohan Momentum waterproof jacket review: design and quality 

Rohan uses its 2.5 Layer Barricade Standard technology for the Momentum jacket, which it claims makes it 10x as waterproof as the British standard for waterproofing. Further good news is that the water-repellent outer fabric and the PU hydrophilic membrane are bonded together and protected by a printed layer, which enables the jacket to be lightweight (275g) yet still reasonably durable.

The jacket also has Rohan's DWR (Durable Water Repellency) finish, which by itself gives shower resistance, but combined with the Barricade technology, promises to keep you dry by shedding water and being breathable.

Style-wise, the Momentum has clean lines and a minimalist appearance that looks good in any setting. There are two pockets on the outside that can both accommodate an OS map and have waterproof zips, while inside there's a larger security pocket that doubles as the ‘Packpocket' for storing the jacket.

Rohan has opted for a fixed hood with a bonded peak and two-point adjustments while the cuffs have Velcro adjustments and the hem can be tightened at two points. If you prefer, the hood can be rolled away and held by a loop of fabric with poppers.

Rohan Momentum waterproof jacket review: comfort and performance

The Rohan Momentum lightweight waterproof jacket feels soft and is comfortable enough to be pulled on over bare arms. It's also quite quiet and doesn't rustle excessively when you're walking.

The Aquaguard front zip runs from the waist up to above your chin, and with the hood pulled in tight, only your nose and eyes are exposed to the weather. However, the hood on the women's version feels a little on the small side and it would be nice if the peak extended out further – especially for those wearing spectacles. The men's hood is better-sized.

When it's stuffed into its integral Packpocket, the men's jacket reduces down to just 850ml while the women's version is just 650ml. That makes them an ideal size to pop into a backpack when you're heading out for a walk or into your work bag when you're office-bound.The downside to that packability is that the jacket looks very crumpled when you first pull it out to wear. It smooths out a bit after a few minutes' wear, but don't expect a just-pressed appearance.

The jacket's hem sits just below the hips, with the drop at the back giving your behind a bit of protection. Some may wish for a few extra inches here, but it would, of course, increase the pack size and weight.

I found the Rohan Momentum highly waterproof and breathable. It's also ideal when the wind gets up mid-walk and you need something to keep its chill at bay.

Rohan Momentum lightweight waterproof jacket review: verdict

It's important to remember that the Rohan Momentum isn't designed to be an expedition jacket; basically, it's a high-end pack-a-mac. However, Rohan's 2.5 Layer Barricade technology proves its mettle, ensuring that you stay dry when heavens open, and its breathability means you don't feel like you're being steamed on the inside. 

Rohan's technology and the quality of its products have often impressed me, but the styling sometimes feels a bit uninspired. The Momentum jacket, however, looks great and its fit is excellent. There's a good degree of adjustment for a packable jacket and it feels made to give great service for several years.

General Info [ ]

Armors in Rohan allow characters to improve their Physical and Magical Defense stats along with gaining additional stats. The higher the Physical and Magical Defense stats, the less damage monsters and players will deal. Enchanted Armors allow Armor to have additional effects. Some include damage reflection, health, minimum damage drop, and others.

All armor, except shields, are accessible to all races, but the look of the armor and the stats given vary by race. Different sets of armor differ by level. Additionally, there are 4 classes of armor - Normal Armor , Rare Armor , Unique Armor , and Enchanted Armor . Each type of armor is stronger than the previous, normal Armor being the lowest class, and Enchanted Armor being the highest class.

Forging Armors [ ]

To achieve the higher classes of armor, forge two armor sets of the class beneath the current class.

For example,  two Normal Armors forge to create one Rare Armor Piece, and  t wo Rare Armor Pieces forge to create one Unique Armor Piece.

Enchanted Armors, however, do not follow this rule. To forge an Enchanted armor, you need a Unique Armor Piece and an Armor Option Stone .

Visit the forging armors page for more details.

• Note 1: It is not 100% success, just increased rates.
• Note 2: Physical and Magical defense column has been added below. These stats are meant to be a guideline for the best possible and most common maximum stats possible for that armor set. While it is possible to have an Appentium piece with +33 or even +34, or an Elemental piece with +11 on it does not mean this is a maximum. The stats are randomly generated upon creation and while these sometimes can be found, it does not mean that those are the max stats for that armor set because it is actually a 'mistake' at generation.
• Note 3: The base armor stats(White) are diferent for all races so keep that in mind when caltulating your Physical/Magical defense vs another class/race.
