The OMM Kamleika Jacket is an iconic running and mountaineering jacket , designed specifically for trail running, mountain running and technical running in really tough conditions . First launched in 2005, the jacket is now in its sixth generation , with a focus on freedom of movement, durability, weather protection and environmental responsibility .

Kamleika is known for its unique construction: a 4-way stretch, soft and fully waterproof material that feels like a softshell but protects like a full mountain shell. The jacket is built to be worn and run in , not just packed away as an emergency solution, and offers high comfort even when worn all day in rain, wind and cold weather.

The latest generation uses a PFAS-free membrane and PFC-free DWR treatment , reducing environmental impact without compromising performance. The material has a water column of 20,000 mm and breathability of 20,000 g/m²/24h , making the jacket well suited for high-intensity running in bad weather.

The Kamleika Jacket is fully equipped with features typically found in rugged mountain shells: fully taped seams, YKK AquaGuard zippers, two hand pockets , adjustable elastic waistband with dynamic droptail , and adjustable cuffs with integrated thumbholes . The laminated hood with a moldable visor stays stable even in strong winds and follows the movements of the head while running.

Weighing in at around 265 grams, Kamleika combines robust protection with impressive mobility and comfort. The soft construction makes the jacket exceptionally quiet when running , something that is often highlighted in tests as a great advantage during long sessions in exposed environments.
