About this project
What Makes Our Coats So Special!
Traditional performance jackets are sporty, touristy, labeled with large logos and can be really expensive. We have designed modern outerwear. Our coats are lighter and warmer and we are able to make natural fibers water and windproof such as cotton and wool. They are also comfortable windproof and come with a cozy, warm micro fleece lining, or soft mesh lining inside. We have a world class fashion designer insuring we are providing fashion forward, timeless designs so you can wear your favorite coat for many years to come. We also use high quality factories that provide good quality. And to top things off, we have made our coats affordable.
We have a 100% customer satisfaction and roughly 1 in 200 backers/customers return their coats. We are proud of our product!
Outer Street Fabric - It starts with the fabric we design. We design all our own fabrics from scratch. We offer a NEW softer wool blend, new cotton herringbone colors and weights, denim, jersey and of course cotton.
Inner Micro-fleece - The inside is a cozy and comfortable micro-fleece interior. It doesn't scratch and is very warm and comfortable.
Special Thermal Membrane - Bonded in-between the micro-fleece and wool is the secret to the coats performance. We insert a waterproof and windproof thermal membrane that deflects your body heat back towards your body. This allows for less material to accomplish the same amount of warmth performance. The membrane is also a wind barrier, keeping the wind chill out. This high-tech waterproof & windproof membrane will always keep you warm and dry in the wind, snow, rain, or any of the other elements.
DWR Coating - DWR stands for durable water resistance and we apply this treatment to the outside of the coat. What this does, is help water bead off the coat instead of soaking through. Of course we have installed the state of the art high-tech membrane, but the DWR coating is the first line of defense to mother nature.

Sueded cotton - ***NEW FOR FALL 2019*** "The Performance Plus series" is made with our latest and newest custom fabric using a super soft sanded cotton, a 10000/5000 membrane in the middle layer and a cozy micro-fleece lining.

Fashion Design - Our products are designed in Portland, Oregon where our head designer Nina Bucci also owns a boutique. From here we can test new designs and use customer insights to create better product. She takes the latest trends and gently softens our look to create timeless pieces that will stay fashion forward for years to come.
Light and Compact Travel a lot or only need one coat because you live in a warmer place, then this is the coat for you. This is a very small carry on suit case and the coat barely takes up any space. As illustrated is our heaviest wool coat and it barely takes up any space. Travelling in other countries and you don't want to look like a tourist? Then get one of these and blend right in.
Fall 2019
The New Excursion Jackets - with NEW Purse Pocket
We bring you the Excursion jackets. As we get feedback and images from our travel club, we know there is a need for us to make a supped up Mia Melon and OMO jacket. We have developed a new fabric that is really soft to touch, doesn't wrinkle easy when packed, has taped seams and a 10K/5K membrane with a DWR treatment. On the outside of the sueded cotton fabric is a special heat treatment known as a DWR (Durable Water Resistance) which is our first defense against mother nature. This treatment allows the water to bead off.
Taped Seams with 10k/5k membrane
We have been told that when you go on an excursion, you could use another pocket, so you don't need to bring your purse or bag along with you when on your favorite trail or out traveling the world. We are introducing the revolutionary "purse pocket" This miniature purse is large enough to hold your essentials such as cash, credit cards, passport, lipstick and make up. It snaps conveniently into the inside of your jacket and remains hidden and secure. Leave your purse or bag in the trunk of your car, hotel room or house and only bring what you need on your excursion.

Model is 6'2" with a 40" chest and 34" waist and wears a size medium in the photo.
Sizing XS - 2XL
The Comfy 2
We brought you the Comfy through a previous Kickstarter campaign. This is a new extra-soft version with a teddy faux-fur lining instead of the mesh lining from the previous design.It has our standard membrane that is wind and waterproof and also has a DWR treatment. Compared to the Excursion jackets, it is more of a casual, laid back performance jacket that doesn't have the travel features but it incredibly cozy and is very fashionable. It's so comfy that you might even want to wear it inside while watching TV! :)

True to the test!
Any of you backers on our travel club? Our jackets have been tested and have been taken all over the world. We know our NEW excursion jackets will add to one's travel experience by offering the additional protection and features.
Risks and challenges
Thanks to your support we have done 10 successful campaigns all helping with our production. Most rewards have been delivered on time or sometimes early. As we grow, our production gets bigger, we have more quality concerns to deal with, and more can go wrong to cause late shipping. Especially when it is a really difficult fabric to develop. In the end, we always come through.
We are offering a number of styles and colors and some styles and colors may not be popular enough to produce. This does happen but not very much. If you do pick an unpopular style, we can substitute for a more popular style or even return your reward if necessary.
This new fabric in this project shouldn't have many challenges but there are a lot more details coming with the female jackets such as the purse pocket and the layering pieces. There isn't anything we are concerned about, just that there is more to mange and to arrive on time. We are planning to ship in October but we are scheduling the goods to arrive in September to give us a little cushion.
Once again, without your support we would not be here. We are hoping our new product group will be a home run.
Thanks again,
Mia Melon & OMO
