Here’s the must-have items from Trakker’s SS18 collection - including the hot-off-the moulding press 5lt Water Carrier
From a range of sunglasses to rainwear every Brit carper should own...
1. Classic Sunglasses
The ancient question us journos always ask: “Name your top three essentials” will 9 times out of a 10 always feature polarised sunglasses. It’s a carp angler’s must-have product. Trakker’s brand-new Classic model combines both stylish frames and comfort with some of the best lenses to look through. They also come complete with a zipped hard case and an embossed lens cloth.
£24.99
2. Wrap-Around Sunglasses
Whilst carrying out tests for our Hardware Comparison feature some years back on polarised sunglasses, we concluded that wrap-around style frames are best for (a) cutting out sunlight, which (b) means you see more - especially when combined with Trakker’s new brown 1.1 TAC polarised lenses.
£24.99
3. Aviator Sunglasses
Polarised sunglasses which combine style with functionality for the day-to-day angler. Featuring pure brown polarised lenses for the ultimate when it comes to viewing, along with exceptional detailing and ultra durable hinges to complete a very robust and on-trend frame.
£19.99
4. Summit XP Trousers
The company that popularised high-performance rain-wear is now fighting its way down your legs and presents the sibling to go with their highly popular Summit XP Jacket. Just like that, these trousers have a 10,000mm hydrostatic head to offer fantastic water-resistance while remaining highly breathable thanks to its 5,000/m2 breathability rating. Available in S to XXXL.
£74.99
5. Quick-Dry Session Towel
There are plenty of towels available but few do what Trakker’s new one does. Six to seven times smaller and lighter than a conventional bath towel - so perfect for all Hearn/Sharp/Peck clones. It’ll also dry you and itself out far quicker than a standard towel thanks to its highly absorbent microfibre material.
£13.99
6. 5lt Water Carrier
A beefed up version of the brand’s original Water Carrier. This brute will hold 5lt, of which you can easily pour thanks to the wide, easy-fill/pour spout and sculptured carry handle.
