Cordura makes a difference in new Eddie Bauer fishing collection

28/03/2014
Sports brand Eddie Bauer has launched a new outerwear, apparel and gear collection for fishing. The new collection will be part of the brands Sport Shop line, which also includes hunting and shooting apparel. It launches with eleven men’s and women’s fishing apparel pieces and three technical gear items. Plans are already in place to expand this collection in forthcoming seasons.

“Eddie Bauer prides itself on building innovative, functional products that enable our customers to live their adventure,” said the brand’s chief executive, Mike Egeck, at the time of the launch. “For nearly two years, our team collaborated with experts to conceptualise, build and test these new products in the environment for which they are intended. That attention to detail and quality can be found in each piece.”

Highlights include the Immersion Wading Jacket for men and women. Exclusive to Eddie Bauer, the entire jacket is made from durable 750 Cordura nylon and is windproof, waterproof and breathable.

Cordura yarn also features in the Riverbank pants for men. The mix here is 60% Cordura nylon and 40% Supplex nylon, with proprietary Eddie Bauer moisture-management technology called Free-Dry.
