Keela Hydron jacket
The Keela Hydron jacket is excellent and is just what I wanted. The fit is perfect and the jacket gives me the protection from the weather I need.
The service form Newforest Clothing was quick and efficient, with a competitive price.
I highly recommend both.

Superb bit of kit
Superb bit of kit. Used in the Lakes early this winter (snow and rain) and this performed exactly as described in the sales blurb. Great for folks like me with a stocky build (I’m 6’2” 44” chest/34”waist) over base layer and mid layer. Breathes well and fab ventilation when working hard uphill. Robust material.
Only 4 stars though as when climbing there is absolutely no way that hood fits over a climbing helmet - I can get it to if the main zip is undone a bit but that’s no so good when out in the elements.

Absolutely brilliant jacket, the design, fit and overall quality has made it my go to jacket. Love the 'arm pit vents', worn my rucksack with it and so easy to open and close, chest pockets are a very good size too.

Had it a few months now in a variety of weather conditions. Definitely showerproof and when I got caught in a downpour whilst soaked it didn't suck body temp out. Comfortable fit. Pockets need to be bigger, chest pockets to get your hands in would be better

I wore it out yesterday. A bleak, cold, damp day with a lot of drizzle. This jacket was perfect. I wore a base layer, thin mid layer and the Hydron. I didn't get too hot and I stayed dry. Perfectly plugged the gap between fleece or hard shell.

Mid weight, tough, weather resistant and very breathable. This is almost the perfect hill staling jacket for Scotland. Wish I had bought one sooner.

Great jacket. Only worn it for a few days but already proven it's worth. Kept the rain and wind off when out but it did not get to hot. Hood is a good size and goes over my cap.
