OMM Ultra 8 - NEW!

Our Review – OMM Ultra 8:

The OMM Ultra 8 is a stripped back and simple pack for races and training.

The NEW Ultra 8 is one of the smallest packs in the OMM range and is well suited to the training, racing or the commuter.  A traditional style pack with an innovative diaphragm strap which enables loosening or tightening the fit on the move for stability and comfort when necessary.  Expandable side pocket access allows for carrying of waterproofs to water bottles.

This latest iteration of an already popular pack offers the same stability and capacity as the previous generation but now with the added benefit of a more sustainable construction.

The ULTRA RANGE now utilises the INFINIOMM manufacture process, utilising a single polymer (in this case, Nylon) to enhance the ease of recycling and forward processing.

INFINIOMM is circular manufacture with monoplastics. The problem is that current recycling practices cannot easily split polymers. Products with a mix such as Nylon and Polyester can only be recycled (if at all) into lower-grade products with a high degree of wastage. This means a less useful end product and the rest going to landfill. To create new products requires the use of more virgin material (often crude oil) and a greater demand on resources.

The aim of INFINIOMM is to reduce world resource demand, landfill and waste. And the solution to this is Circular Manufacture which aims to use 100% of a product again and again whilst maintaining quality, without the need for 1st use ‘virgin’ materials and zero waste.

To do this the New OMM Ultra Pack Range has been updated to use a single polymer throughout. Each pack is entirely constructed from high-quality Nylon; including zips, fabrics, webbing and buckles; the works!

INFINIOMM – No Extra Waste. No New Resources. Infinite Loop

• YOKE HARNESS - The Y-shaped Harness distributes pack weight over a larger area and so reduces pressure on the shoulders. The wider distribution also makes for a more stable carry.
