BUILT TO SOLVE THE THREE THINGS THAT END FISHING SESSIONS EARLY.
Most gear makes you choose. Warm but stiff. Waterproof but noisy. Light but cold.
The Vanguard doesn't compromise.
One fabric. Three jobs. All day on the water.
15,000mm waterproof shell → Rain. Spray. Pre-dawn dew. None of it gets through. The weather doesn't decide when you go home.
Fleece-lined interior → Warm from the first cast to the last. Holds heat without bulk so cold mornings don't cut your session short.
Silent stretch softshell → Cast without announcing yourself. No crinkle, no swish. Nothing that spooks fish when you move.
17 waterproof tactical pockets → Pliers. Cutters. Phone. Tackle. Everything where your hand drops — stop fumbling, stay on the fish.
Reinforced knees and elbows → Boat decks, creek banks, wet rock. Built for the ground you fish on.
One fabric. Three jobs. Zero compromise.
The Hybritex™ fabric is what happens when seven seasons of real water testing meets one requirement: it has to work when everything else has quit.
Stay all day on the water.
Dry. Warm. Silent. The only softshell that delivers all three.
