Since its inception in the 1980s, Preston Innovations has had one goal in mind when it is producing its tackle, to provide quality products that are designed with a purpose. Preston has over 30 years of experience in producing fishing tackle and equipment, and its success is down to the brand’s dedication to following and listening to the leading match anglers to then learn and incorporate the techniques and methods that work into the products. Because of this dedication and listening to real angler’s needs, Preston is one step ahead of other leading fishing tackle providers.
Every product created has come from a gap in the market that Preston has experienced on the bank. Preston Innovations then takes the new product and prototypes it, testing it till it meets its exacting standards before the product is put up for sale. So, when you use a product designed by Preston you are guaranteeing you’ll be ahead of the competition. In real terms, this helps you to land more catches.
This Preston jacket from the DF30 range makes sure you stay sheltered, warm and dry in the cooler evenings to the not-stop downpour days at the lake. Made with match and coarse anglers in mind, this waterproof coat helps to keep the cold spots at bay with its multitude of impressive features.
The jackets ability to withstand the heaviest of downpours is thanks to being made from the set has a clothing fabric that could hold a column of water that is 20,000 mm tall according to its 20,000mm hydrostatic head rating. This measurement of how water-resistant the clothing means that anglers will stay completely dry when being splashed by feisty fish or when the UK shower are non-stop.
In addition to being waterproof, the fabric of the jacket is also incredibly breathable. The 3000 g/m breathable material, allows 3kg of moisture vapour to be transmitted through a square metre of the fabric within a 24 hours window. This means through the day, you remain incredibly cool and dry inside the jacket, as the heat of the sun or the perspiration from maximum movement when rushing to pick up that landing net will be released through the fabric, without compromising its impermeable benefits. This jacket lets fluids out not in. This means the coat is very comfortable to fish in as it is not sticking to your skin, producing a confined feeling when you need great movability.
The coat also has reinforced shoulders for better protection when carrying tackle, whilst the high neckline keeps heat in and the chilly breeze out. When the weather is cool but the sun is still shining this high neck will also protect against sunburn, perfect when spending hours in the daylight.
The Preston jacket features reinforced patching in key areas for longevity and comfort as well as the waterproof fabric being fully tapered including neoprene cuffs and a stiffened peak hood that can both be adjusted to your wrist and head size to ensure breeze is kept out. For further tailoring, you can choose from sizes medium, large, XL and XXL.
The DF30 maintains a modern stylish look thanks to colour-coded zips and stylish embroidery making it the ultimate suit for the serious match angler. The three waterproof zipped pockets can be easily found thanks to the bright blue colour that contracts the black and grey shades of the main coat design, handy for storing the go-to tools.
For a jacket that is functional and stylish, offering maximum protection from the elements, look no further than the Preston DF30 coat.
