Already found it for £20 less in the UK or £50 less from the US.

my OMM has had lots of outings these past couple of days in scotland and I'm pleased to say 'does exactly as it says on the tin'

Re: what waterproof jacket?
Interesting thread this and very useful. I have spent ages trying to decide what is both a windproof and waterproof body kit and will also fit in a bum bag. Some of the links on this thread I have thrown up some good kit worth considering - Thanks everyone.

Another fan of the OMM Kamleika Smock here too. Only problem I've had with it is the taping on the internal pocket has come away from the fabric, other then that it's the business.

Berghaus Paclite. Not cheap but covers every eventuality.

you can see it tied around my waist in the avatar - good for hiding 'does my bum look big in this' also!!
Re: what waterproof jacket?
Recently purchased the OMM kamleika smock and trousers - my first ever proper waterproofs for running (15 years fell running ain't bad going without them). So far only one outing so fingers crossed they do the business through the winter.
Only complaint is that when I put them on (they are black) and pull the hood up I look even more like a mole and the Missus falls about laughing :o.
Kamleika Moleskins :)
