New Wading Jacket This year, in addition to the popular and most reliable waterproof Prestige clothing, the company has introduced a new top of the range wading jacket. This Geo product offers superior specification in all areas and is made from a three-layer polyester material incorporating the renowned Vapour- Tec® 4000g/m²/24hrs and 8000mm breathable/ waterproof membrane. This makes it extremely light in the process. With a folding hood that fits comfortably into the collar, bellows pockets to front and D-rings as required this designs this is the most advanced Snowbee have yet made. Even more remarkable perhaps from a product of this specification is the price, at below £230.


New Travel Vest Last year Snowbee re-introduced a long waistcoat too, after many companies had


dismissed this as no longer fashionable. How wrong that opinion proved to be for some, as sales of this £89.99 jacket quickly caught up and exceeded those of even the traditional and previously most popular Geo fly vest. The appeal primarily was to the older more traditional gent but in addition however, came a new market. This consisted of photographers, bird watchers, walkers and other popular pursuits often involving travel. So the new ‘Travel Vest’, with a much wider appeal was designed and produced, still with a lining but at the slightly lesser price of £84.99. Made from a durable but attractive and practical ‘bush poplin’ material but adding a 20per cent increase in polyester produced a lighter finish with a soft Peach Skin outer, finish with a DWR coating to make it water resistant.


Fly Vest Back Pack Similar to the waistcoats has been another surprisingly popular product the Fly vest back pack. At £95.99 sales of this type of product were anticipated to be quite conservative however demand has soared in the last year and whilst stocks were recently exhausted and replenished, demand has already cleared nearly 20 per cent of the new stock in a matter of days, as back orders have been


All Season Jacket and Trousers


On the subject of wider appeal with the travel vest, the ¾ All Season Jacket and Trousers with the removable fleece jacket inner, has proved another great product at a staggering £189 for all three items in the set. The jacket and fleece at £149 are also great value alone, and ideal for the wider audience beyond just the fly fisher, appealing also to the much wider shooting and general outdoor market.


Waterproof and Breathable Fleeces Finally the waterproof and breathable fleeces come in a full range of sizes and the ¼ zip sweaters in both blue and green - all under £90, represent exceptional value for products of their superior specification all being both waterproof, windproof and breathable. The sweaters themselves are very smart but first and foremost very practical and extremely comfortable. They are hard wearing and very durable suitable for any climate but may also be worn for best and socially by anybody in any walk of life and especially in and out of a car for example where one never knows what the weather will deliver.
