all your new stuff looks amazing! I am dying to get my hands on the belt, that thing is awesome. I'm sure our sponsors that will be carrying the new stuff will let us know as soon as they have it!

Kadir,

I have been looking forward to see the new jackets in person sence the SWE show, and seeing them in the catalog. They were everthing
you said . Once you see them in person they speek for themselves. I love tha fact they have a hood with a little brim on them(for us with glasses), and the neck system is wonderful. You can tell a lot of thought went into it. They are going to be a hit.

Keep up the good work.




Jeff

I second the "jacket with a hood" - nice to know someone was listening.

Kadir - nice stuff - really.

The new jackets will address what a lot of people were looking for.

The wader belt is great - simple and functional design that is long overdue. I have not tried on 1/5th of the belts that I'm sure are out there but I have not seen one that good for such little dough (or more dough for that matter)...

Good luck

Yup the hood is big. I like the light weight one..there's plenty of times I am on a rock pile out of the water when the waves an spray crash up untop of me.
I lower my head to block my face..A quality top with a hood is what I need..Not a fan of the thing around my neck.No reason to be totally dry in a light weight jacket.Sometimes the water feels good. I might cut it out.I will give it a go first.I'm thinkin cause it is breathable I might be ok.Plus it would be nice to have it when I need it..

FORE!
It's usually darkest just before it turns Black..

Thanks for the replies folks!

For the last 2-3 years people all over have been asking for a top like these and we now have it. We do listen and value the input provided by our users.

These tops went through multiple proto-typing (6) and rigirous testing and performed very, very well last fall and early winter. We put in a lot of time, effort and energy in our designs and feature implementation to make them the best available with many features not found on anything even remotely similar. They are also 20-30 less on a retail level compared to anything remotely close so as a customer there is a lot of value.

The positive feeback is rewarding at this stage because I think we got it right. Now let's see how long it takes the competition to copy our products once again

All the new items will be available by the end of this month to the early part of May.We hope you enjoy them and again, thanks for the feedback and for checking them out at the show.

Have a great season.
Kadir

Good stuff Kadir
the belt looks great, almost overkill.
A hood is important and adds to comfort so we can fish longer

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
