This entry was posted on 27th July, 2020 by Anna Cooper

Even with the sun shining when out at the bank, the wind can still provide a chilly breeze. The Team Vass Tex 175 ‘Khaki Edition’ smock is windproof and breathable. When the weather turns, the Vass smock is prepared, being 100% waterproof with quad welded waterproof seams! This jacket keeps the rain and winds off of your torso so you can focus on the important thing, the fishing.

Based on the Team Vass Sea fishing waterproofs, this khaki smock is great for the stalking angler. It has been designed and tested in harshest of fishing environments, offering amazing performance, reliability and comfort.

The Team Vass 175 waterproof/breathable smock features a wide collar with Velcro fastening, fold-away hood, large front pocket with funnel storm flap to name just a few. Vass purposely haven't used a winter lining in this range so it can be used through the winter or summer leaving you the choice of layering underneath. Recommended layers underneath most waterproof clothing would include Micro-Fleece base layer (as used in climbing) or sweatshirt type cotton blended materials.

What are 'TEAM VASS' editions?

Many of you are probably aware that Vass are proud to be heavily involved with many of the National and International Fishing Teams over the years. Not only has it given Vass the opportunity to support these teams but it has also helped develop and hone the Vass ranges further. The Vass range is constantly developing to cope with the extreme conditions that the Teams face during intense competitions at home and abroad. 

Inspired by the success of working with these top 'Teams' Vass have now launched 'TEAM VASS' editions which offer visual and technical advantages over standard models to meet the high demands of competition fishing.

The Vass smock could be the most waterproof and breathable kit in its class!
