ROA and Tilak unveil a collaborative collection celebrating their complementary philosophies: ROA’s hybrid approach to exploring landscapes, and Tilak’s dedication to uncompromising quality.
ROA emphasizes functionality through avant-garde and performance driven construction techniques, challenging the notion of what it means to exist in the landscape; Tilak, a family-owned business rooted in Czech tradition since the 1980s, is renowned for producing high-quality mountain gear locally in Šumperk. This partnership captures the brands’ shared vision of high-performance outerwear that excels in rugged conditions with an emphasis on contemporary design.
At the heart of this collaboration is the fashion of garments made in GORE-TEX®, from the pioneering powerhouse known for its expertise in durable, weather-resistant fabrics, providing pieces of clothing guaranteed to keep the wearer fully dry. Each item is durably waterproof, windproof, and comfortably breathable, ensuring ease of wearability and protection against wet conditions.
The collection introduces the ROA x Tilak Stinger Parka in demitasse brown color, crafted from waterproof GORE-TEX® Paclite®, a lightweight, breathable, and packable fabric designed for high performance outdoor and activewear.
The parka combines reliable weatherproofing with a lightweight, space-saving design.
Along these lines, the ROA x Tilak Stinger Jacket, an ultra-lightweight top layer in demitasse brown color is also crafted with the latest 2-layer GORE-TEX® with Paclite® Plus technology.
It offers superior waterproofing and a reliable protection from rain, wind and other whims of nature in a packable form.
The ROA x Tilak Nebba Jacket, here featured in Kalamata green.
It employs Pertex Quantum Air fabric for exceptional breathability and wind resistance, and Polartec® Alpha® Direct padding for added warmth and insulation. Its weight is reduced, durability improved, and thermal performance enhanced.
Completing the set, the ROA x Tilak Skirt in demitasse brown color.
It is constructed from water resistant GORE-TEX® INFINIUM™ laminate in a knee-length cut for ease of movement.
An embodiment of the two brands’ core strengths, ROA and Tilak’s collaboration is a commitment to resilient, high-performing outdoor gear that looks for top-tier craftsmanship in every piece and is powered by GORE-TEX® and Pertex materials for enhanced performance.
The ROA x Tilak capsule collection will be available for purchase online at roa-hiking.com, slamjam.com and through select global retailers starting Wednesday, November 13th.
