Clothing

If you are a match anger like myself that fish carp dominated commercials you will know only too well how uncomfortable it when bagging up to have a wet lap and legs due to inadequate overalls that are just not waterproof.

Finding a Bib and Brace that’s not only 100% waterproof but also comfortable hasn’t been straight forward, yet the launch of the 20k clothing range seems to have put all my headaches to bed. 

For those who want to know the technical spec here we go – this clothing has a water column of 20’000 mm and is breathable at a rate of 5’000 g/mm2/24h, which basically means that even in the wettest conditions you will stay completely dry on the outside and even after a hectic session of casting and catching you will also stay dry on the inside!

It has adjustable shoulder straps, padded knee and rear areas, top quality waterproof hard wearing zip with Velcro’s fasteners to not only the front but also to the spacious legging bottoms which allows footwear from walking boots to wellies to be worn and secured. There is also a nice area at the front where you can tuck your hands in as well as placing items such a mobile phone which is ideal if it’s raining.  

Produced in the standard Browning colours and being amazingly lightweight and compact means it can be stored within your luggage without taking up to much space.

There’s also a matching jacket for uneatable protection against the elements.

Available in five sizes – 50/M, 52/ L, 54/XL, 56/XXL and 58/XXXL

Autumn is upon us and already there’s a chill in the air so now is the time to get your winter clothing sorted as it’s no fun being cold.

The first thing I do when looking for a new fleece jacket is to blow as hard as I can through the material and if I can feel my breath then there is one certainty, it’s not windproof and it’s not going to keep you warm on those chilly windy days. First test over and this new Windproof Fleece Jacket passed with flying colours. The next test was to make sure that all possible areas that could let cold air in and warm air out could be sealed and once again these had all been looked at as the hood and waste could both be tightened with elasticated locking cords. The sleeve’s are another potential air inlet/outlet, where locking cords aren’t the best solution, yet this jacket has been fitted with integrated stretching wrist bands that are not only comfortable, keep the warm air in, but eliminate any moisture from entering which is a major uncomfortable problem when pole fishing. 

This jacket has plenty of other features including three zipped pockets, two externally on either side that are fleece lined for additional warmth and one inner which is ideal for keys, phone etc. All the zips are of the highest quality, totally reliable and made in a way that eliminates them getting jammed, as well as being water resistant.

Another big plus is the thick fleece hood isn’t oversized like so many others, so it fits perfectly and doesn’t droop in front of your eyes. It’s also attached to a high collar allowing the hood to be pushed back but still retaining that optimal protection even in the worst weather around the neck area.

With the onset of winter approaching us fast there is one thing I’m confident about and that’s is that on those chilly, windy days I’m going to be nice and warm and doing what I love, catching fish.

Available in five sizes – M, L, XL, XXL, XXXL

Finding an all-year round Bib and Brace/Jacket combo, one that’s not over padded, but lightweight, comfortable but more importantly 100% waterproof isn’t easy. How many times in the past have I been totally perplexed with all the jargon promoting oh it’s this and it’s that, only to find that when it really comes down to the facts, it’s actually only shower proof!

For those who want to know the technical spec here we go – this clothing has a water column of 20’000 mm and is breathable at a rate of 5’000 g/mm2/24h, which basically means that even in the wettest conditions you will stay completely dry on the outside and even after a hectic session of casting and catching you will also stay dry on the inside!

This clothing is oozing with features; let’s start with the Bib and Brace. It has adjustable shoulder straps, padded knee and rear areas, top quality waterproof hard wearing zip with Velcro’s fasteners to not only the front but also to the spacious legging bottoms which allows footwear from walking boots to wellies to be worn and secured.  The Jacket once again has the top quality waterproof hard wearing full length front zip with Velcro’s fasteners along with three zipped pockets, two external plus one internal. The cuffs are adjustable and can be fastened with Velcro’s fasteners to stop moisture running up your arms. The hood isn’t oversized like so many others, so no fear of it obscuring your vision whilst on the move or fishing and can be tightened and adjustable by not just Velcro’s strips but elasticated securing system at the rear, neck as well as the waist area.  

Both come in black with the typical Browning colours and being so lightweight and compact they can be stored within your luggage without taking up to much space, great for those days when the weather forecast is a bit on the iffy side!

Available in five sizes – M, L, XL, XXL, XXXL

If there is one thing you need to be when fishing a match or simply pleasure fishing is comfortable, and I don’t mean how your tackle station is set up, but just as important is what you are wearing.

A great combination is the Dry Fit Polo Shirt, Sweatpants and if it’s bright and sunny then the Clubber Cap completes the outfit. 

The Dry Fit Polo Shirt comes in five sizes, as do the Sweatpants, M, L, XL, XXL and XXL and has been designed to give plenty of movement in the arm fit making casting and landing fish all day effortless. Made from a quick drying100% Polyester material it’s really comfortable, light, highly breathable making it ideal for those hot summer days as well as classy looking coming in the standard Browning burgundy and black colours.

The Sweatpants, or joggers as I refer to them, are made from a really soft comfortable to the skin material and come with an elastic waistband and cord to tighten accordingly plus wide ankle bands and three pockets, two zipped side pockets and a rear pocket.

If you want to look the part but more importantly be comfortable before, during and after each session then this is the perfect clothing combo!
