Keela Genesis

This windproof fleece from Keela is a great fit – just the right length in the body with good long sleeves and elasticated cuffs. The high collar is good, and the chunky, cosy fabric has a lovely soft feel to it. Windproof and waterproof, it has Keela’s innovative and breathable Innovation X1 lining providing all the protection. It certainly keeps the wind off and does well in the odd shower, but is rather warm for strenuous walking.

Verdict: A well-priced, chunky and good-looking jacket best suited to less energetic walking or extremely cold, windy weather. A good casual jacket too.
