After 2 years of research and development, Fortis bring you the ultimate waterproof outer shell. Built for the outdoors, the Fortis Marine Jacket provides essential protection as you battle the elements. Meticulously designed and developed for the dedicated angler, this fully waterproof, highly breathable and ergonomically engineered jacket is the protective outer layer for their technical layering system and the perfect accompaniment to the Marine Overtrouser. Particular attention has been made to the cut of the jacket with its articulated sleeves - an ergonomic feature allowing your arms to remain protected whilst flexing for a cast.
The Triflex fabric boasts additional stretch, and combined with the technical tailoring around the shoulders, this ensures that the jacket doesn't rise up at the back when you reach up high. A classic and relaxed fit means you can layer up accordingly throughout the seasons without restrictions. The stormproof hood with stiffened peak provides stability and the wired edge is easily adjustable to suit conditions or headwear. Together with the higher cut soft touch lined collar, this offers extreme protection to the face so you can keep your eyes on the water at all times. The Triflex fabric is highly breathable and wicks away moisture generated from high levels of activity.So if you're walking miles in search of the fish in inclement conditions, it's easy to forget you're wearing a waterproof until the showers roll in. Marine Overtrousers - NEW 2022 MODEL.
Fortis felt the trousers would benefit from some side access pocket zips so you could access your valuables in the trousers you wear underneath, so they have added two YKK® AquaGuard® Vislon® side access zips on the hips. They have now removed the smaller back pocket on the rear. They have removed the storm flap which protected the old knee length zip and instead upgraded the current zip to the same YKK® AquaGuard® Vislon® zip which feature on the jacket for a cleaner, watertight aesthetic.
The trousers now feature a slight taper from the knee instead of a straight leg which can still be worn over wellington boots comfortably but also over regular walking boots or trainers without being too baggy. They can be adjusted even more using the poppers on the hem. The trousers also feature an improved elasticated waist toggle for extra comfort and ease.
A classic tapered fit means you can layer up accordingly throughout the seasons without restriction. The knee-length zips with press stud ankle adjustments are comfortable with all footwear, no matter what the season. Side access zips mean you can reach through to your valuables in your other layers. Our 20,000mm Waterproof, 20,000mm Breathability Triflex Fabric is highly breathable and wicks away moisture generated from high levels of activity.
