Product Information

Similar to the structure of down with incredible softness, Primaloft is highly compressible and easy to stuff. Cuff adjusters are classic Velcro tabs and work fine. We found the sleeves tended to pull up though - Photo: Lukasz Warzecha (lwimages.co.uk) The latter make the vents slightly awkward to use compared to a simple water-resistant zip version and create noticeable extra bulk under the bat-wing upper arms. The outer consists of a pique weave with a durable water resistant treatment laminated onto a waterproof hydrophilic membrane.

Lyme disease is the most commonly reported insect borne illness in the United States, and has now become one of the fastest growing epidemics to date, while Malaria is responsible for approximately one million deaths worldwide.Our links within the industry have meant that Keela has been able to remain competitive, designing innovative garments using high-quality materials. Just like that, no waterproof garments breathe in wet or old conditions, no matter what marketing hype may tell you. Breathability claims can be made, but with the international test standards being set in dry conditions at 21°C and above, the results are far removed from the conditions in which we expect our products to perform. Insect Shield technology converts clothing and gear into long-lasting, effective and convenient insect protection.

Pit-zips sit under a double storm-flap making them slightly awkward to use - Photo: Lukasz Warzecha (lwimages.co.uk) Its specially structured star yarn rapidly removes moisture away from the body, dispersing it over a large area for fast evaporation into the outside atmosphere, keeping you drier for longer. Primaloft Gold Active is designed to regulate your comfort level during intense activity, while offering performance without compromise in a wide range of conditions.Keela was founded on the East Coast of Scotland, the perfect place to innovate and test outdoor garments for the changeable British weather. With our HQ located in Glenrothes, we continue to provide UK-led garment designs. The Keela Way PrimaLoft is incredibly soft, lightweight and breathable with excellent water repellency so you remain dry, warm and comfortable, even under the most extreme conditions. At Keela we put the emphasis on garments that perform in the most extreme conditions of their intended environment. This means we don’t just lab test our garments in simulated environments; we put them out on the hills and ensure they provide the ultimate protection.

Keela’s ADS garments are perfect for use worn individually in warm weather or as a base layer in conjunction with a layering system in colder environments. It is an entirely natural product that offers a unique level of comfort, look and feel as well as being windproof, highly breathable, very durable and quiet. Primaloft insulation is soft and supple like down, making it an excellent choice for active outerwear. Ounce for ounce as warm as down, Primaloft microfibres are similar in size and shape to down, resulting in nearly equal insulating performance when dry and even better when wet.
