OMM Kamleika Jacket

The new Kamleika fabric is a huge upgrade making this jacket even more comfortable for those long runs in poor conditions. With increased stretch, waterproofing and breathability this is a fantastic jacket able to keep you dry and comfortable in the poorest conditions on the hills. 

OMM says: Stretch waterproof jacket for maximum freedom of movement when active, with more casual cut and features for everyday use.

Kamleika's unique blend of stretch, low weight with waterproof performance has been at the core of OMM clothing range for 10 years. AW17 will see the 3rd iteration of the Kamleika range with 37.5 technology improving breathability by 300%, enhanced shaping throughout and award winning features. These enhancements keep the Kamleika as the top choice for runners who embrace running in extreme conditions.

OMM's Kamleika Jacket uses the new and improved Kamleika fabric which has become softer, stretchier and more comfortable with each new outing. It doesn't feel like a traditional waterproof shell, in fact, it doesn't feel waterproof at all. However, it is waterproof and it works really well with an increased level of breathability in this version.

The jacket has a good amount of reflective detailing, adjustable hood and hem with draw cords and Velcro cuffs that also act as thumb loops too. In all honesty, they are not comfortable for thumb loops as they are harder and feel more like plastic so they do tend to dig in to your hands after you've been running for a while. They do have two good sized pockets and all zips are big enough to handle easily when wearing gloves. This is the most comfortable jacket I've ever warn for running on trails, fells and mountains.
