Head-to-toe fishing solutions from Chub

Chub have released their new range of Vantage clothing, which covers everything from base layers to all-weather suits. The range is designed to suit both the occasional angler and the week in, week out addict! What’s more, the style and look of some of the items in the range, which definitely have an urban edge to them, mean that they’d be just as well suited to the pub – by that we mean the polo shirts and cargo pants – not the all weather suits!!

It’s nice to see a manufacturer put out a complete range of clothing, which allows the user to build a complete layering system to suit the conditions or time of year. So, let’s take a quick look at all the items in the new Vantage range;

Chub Vantage Base Layer set
A thermal top & trousers to you and me! The set features Thermatex 100 thermal insulation to trap warm air against the body during cold weather. Nice touches are the ankle zips and zipped fly.
