15 Best Fishing Suit Companies

Top Float Suit Manufacturers

A float suit should not only protect you from the cold, but also help in case of failure under the ice. Its structure is such that with the right position, it will not let you drown. You just need to roll over face up and in this position try to get out or wait for help. Also, the float saves from loss of temperature and does not let water through. A real life jacket that is comfortable to be in, both in severe frost and in the off-season.

5 Holster

The domestic company was established in 1993, and during this time it was able to go from a novice distributor to a manufacturer and owner of its own brands. Winter suits for fishing make up only a part of the manufactured range, however, the constantly updated line of models and high quality workmanship did not go unnoticed by users.In addition, a reasonable pricing policy cannot but rejoice - fishing suits for winter are available to Russians with any income level. In addition, each model has been tested in real conditions, the results of which are freely available and allow each potential buyer to make his own assessment of the product.

Among the float suits produced by the company, it is worth highlighting the most popular model - the Polar Explorer. Its feature can be considered a wide range of not only the size range. The model is available in 4 frost resistance classes and allows you to participate in ice fishing from -10 to -60 ° C. The difference in price is within 1000 rubles, so the cost does not affect the choice at all. The suit is very durable, is not blown by the wind and reliably protects from moisture and cold. At a fairly high level, and the layout of the equipment - thoughtfulness literally to the smallest detail distinguishes this fishing suit from its competitors.

4 Triton

The domestic manufacturer "Triton" specializes in equipment and related products for outdoor activities. Among the huge range of products, there are also fishing float suits, which, in a number of characteristics, compare favorably with foreign and well-known brands. The first thing that attracts the attention of the buyer, especially in Russia, is, of course, an affordable price tag. At the same time, it cannot be said that in the pursuit of affordability, the company neglected quality. The Taslan material used for the outer layer is very reliable and has a polymer impregnation that gives the product high water-repellent characteristics.

Winter suits "Azimuth" and "Skif" (more affordable model) allow you to comfortably do what you love down to -40 ° C.If you have to fish in even more severe conditions, it is best to choose the Fisher. Despite the fact that it can withstand up to -45 ° C, the price set by the manufacturer is one third lower than the budget Skif. Even if this is a marketing ploy, it definitely plays into the hands of the owners. In addition, the use of a special new Extreme lining allows this suit to keep heat perfectly, and the impermeability of the upper layer effectively protects not only from water, but also from piercing wind.

3 Fladen

Fladen, a company from Sweden, and its employees know perfectly well what real winter is and how important it is to have a high-quality suit in the arsenal that can cope with any hardships at the bottom. The company specializes in the production of fishing goods, including equipment. Their floats are distinguished by maximum comfort. Here you will not find bulky equipment in which it is difficult to turn around or perform some kind of action. At the same time, the suits are very warm and with a high level of moisture retention.

Despite external lightness, this is the most protected fishing suit that can withstand temperatures down to -50⁰. And when it gets into the water, it will retain heat and will not let you go to the bottom. Another interesting feature is the independent coup. Since the float can only hold you in the water in one position, the suit will flip you over without you having to put in any effort. The only downside here is the price. However, the products of brands from northern Europe have never been distinguished by democratic price tags.

2 Seafox

Seafox is that rare example of a manufacturer whose popularity (as a supplier of clothing and equipment) is tied to the release of a single winter suit model - Seafox Crossflow. In fairness, it should be noted that the company's assortment has a sufficient number of cool options, but in terms of popularity, they are, alas, far from Crossflow. The main difference between this float suit and a number of others is the use of a fabric of critically low moisture permeability, which allows you to stay on the surface of the water for a long time. In addition, Crossflow (due to the imbalance of densities in various parts) independently turns a person facing away from the surface of the water, so as not to block constant access to oxygen.

Due to the bright yellow coloring, the person in distress is clearly visible from afar, which facilitates detection and makes it possible to make a prompt decision on rescue. Hollofil 11 and lavsan are used as insulation in Crossflow (and in many other Seafox sets), which prevent cold air from penetrating under the fabric. The cost of suits in this series varies widely: from 12,000 for earlier models to 20,000 for the latest designs. In general, the last proposal fully reflects the essence of the company's pricing policy - everyone can find equipment for themselves in accordance with the price level and the desired quality.

1 norfin

Norfin entered the market in 1995 and quickly began to develop. Today it is known not only in Europe, but also in the USA and Canada, where the brand's costumes are praised for their high quality and reasonable prices. The product is really very reliable. And there are many items in the catalog. The brand specializes in tourist clothing.Recently, it has also been producing floats, which are distinguished by a pleasant design and a competent cut. Such a fishing suit will suit any body constitution.

Unfortunately, it is impossible to call Norfin budget products, but if you read the reviews of real owners, it becomes clear that every ruble spent on the purchase is not accidental. The suits are strong and durable. There are inserts in the places of abrasion, and the materials are selected in such a way that even the most severe winter does not stand in the way of you and fishing. In general, the best choice for your money.

The best manufacturers of membrane suits

If the winter suit had only one task - to warm the body, then the manufacturers would not have to invent anything. An ordinary padded jacket copes with this. But in winter it is easy to sweat in such clothes, and the accumulated moisture needs to be put somewhere. Membrane fabric copes with this task. By itself, it does not heat, but only removes moisture and retains the heat generated by the body. Such suits are great for action, so if fishing for you is not just sitting with a fishing rod at the hole, then be sure to take a closer look at the membrane model.

5 CHF

Stable demand from domestic and foreign consumers is enjoyed by the products of the Russian manufacturer CHSN, which today is the leader of the domestic market and offers a range of more than 2,000 items. All items of equipment, suits for hunting and fishing, as well as footwear are made using the latest technologies and taking into account climatic conditions.Only high-quality fabrics and accessories are used as consumables, which guarantees the equipment exceptional strength and durability. In the production of winter suits for outdoor activities, the Austrian Alpolux insulation is used, which, thanks to the unique combination of merino wool with polyester fiber, provides an optimally comfortable microclimate.

The HSN company also offers models of winter fishing suits made using the Alova membrane fabric, which is characterized by the best vapor permeability, water resistance and thermal insulation. The Fisher Special model is popular, made of high-strength HI-pora Lokker POLY CITY material and providing a comfortable stay in nature in the winter, down to -45 ° C. Thanks to a restrained pricing policy, high quality products and a variety of color solutions, the CHSN manufacturer is able to satisfy the needs of a wide range of users.

4 nordski

The Nordski company is first of all familiar to lovers of skiing. It designs and manufactures equipment for skiers and the Russian Olympic team. The company's products turned out to be so successful that they were quickly appreciated by those who are generally far from sports. The main advantage here is a high-quality membrane and a unique insulation. Their combination allowed the manufacturer to make the suit light, but at the same time very thin. In it you will never experience discomfort, as all moisture is removed in a matter of seconds.

Of course, it cannot be said that this is a typical fishing suit.He does not have many pockets, and even when sitting fishing at -30⁰С, he will not save you from the piercing cold. But this is a great option to wear it under an insulated jacket. In addition, Nordski suits are extremely resistant to external moisture. Even if you get caught in heavy rain or snow, the fabric will stay dry.

3 Woodland

If you're looking for the most versatile winter suit, look no further than Woodland. This Russian company has developed a multifunctional product that is suitable for any activity. It is equally convenient to go fishing, hunting, or just walking. It is also great for snowmobiling. The cut is thought out in such a way as not to hinder movement, and all places subject to abrasion are reinforced with suede inserts.

As for warmth, everything is also at the highest level. The temperature range is up to -35⁰С, and a high-quality multilayer membrane removes moisture and prevents it from accumulating inside. Another advantage is the huge number of pockets. It is different in capacity and with different plugs. There are fully sealed compartments and more hand pockets. In general, the best option in terms of thoughtful cut. If winter for you is not only fishing, but also other activities, the Woodland suit will be a great solution for you.

2 Taiga Paintball

The Taiga company appeared on the market in 2013, but despite its relative youth, it can already be called the most popular among Russian manufacturers.The company produces suits on the membrane and even developed its own technology, which was later adopted by other brands. According to research, Taiga jackets retain heat 20% better, and all thanks to the same Omni-Heat that reflects the generated heat and leaves it inside, while moisture does not accumulate, but is expelled outside.

At the same time, Taiga is a fishing suit. There are many convenient pockets of various capacities and a special weighting on the belt, which does not allow the suit to shrink at the waist during squats or bending over. The temperature range is up to -30⁰С, and, judging by user reviews, the parameter is greatly underestimated. In practice, wearing a suit is comfortable even at lower temperatures.

1 Alaskan

Undoubtedly, excellent winter suits from the Alaskan company have a high degree of ergonomics and a fairly low cost, the work on improvements in which does not stop for a moment. Indeed, all the new products of the company are based on previously produced models, with inadvertent modernization to meet the needs of consumers. Forethought is observed decisively in everything: from the convenient location of pockets (including breast pockets) to elongated cuffs on the sleeves to protect hands from wind and frost.

A worthy representative of the company is the Russian Mission suit, which (in the opinion of many, but not the manufacturers themselves) is a fairly competent continuation of the well-known Alaskan Polar + series.Despite all its lightness, the Russian Mission can withstand negative temperatures down to -35 degrees Celsius, reliably locking heat inside the insulation layers. In turn, the Aero-Tex membrane layer, so much praised by domestic fishermen and marketing people, makes it easy to overcome bad weather without getting wet in the rain and providing excellent ventilation in case of active movement (the body does not sweat). Such a model costs from 11 to 12 thousand rubles, which is not at all a high price for a good product.

The best manufacturers of frost-resistant suits

Russian winter has long become a certain stereotype, which is mentioned when they want to show the maximum cold. Of course, not in all regions the winter is so severe, but if you live in a northern city, and often see below 40 degrees on the thermometer. Then you need appropriate clothing. And, it would seem, there is no difficulty in making a warm suit, you just need to put more insulation in it. That's just about the convenience in this case, you can forget. Fortunately, modern technologies allow you to create very warm things, but at the same time not bulky and as comfortable as possible.

5 wood line

Even the most demanding connoisseur of a comfortable pastime for his favorite pastime in the form of ice fishing in winter will appreciate all the advantages of owning a fishing suit from the Swedish manufacturer Woodline. The company specializes in the production of original models of footwear and clothing for all-season outdoor activities.All materials used in production, including our own developments, undergo strict control and are tested for compliance with the specified characteristics under critical loads and temperature conditions.

Also, suits for winter fishing from this manufacturer are distinguished by their modern design and convenience, thanks to which the owner does not experience any stiffness of movements at all and feels absolute comfort even in bad weather and severe frosts. Among the latest innovations, Woodline has introduced the Arctic Storm fishing suit, which is characterized by better functionality and practicality due to the presence of a large variety of pockets. In addition to all these advantages, this model has the possibility of adjusting the size and a removable windscreen.

4 Graff

The founders of the Graff company, which appeared in 1994, were initially aimed at satisfying the needs of connoisseurs of comfort in fishing, hunting and just outdoor activities. Thanks to a modern approach and high quality standards, the products of this manufacturer very quickly earned popularity not only in the domestic market, but also among European and domestic consumers. Graff fishing clothes are comfortable, stylish and durable. A variety of model range allows you to choose a fishing suit depending on seasonal preferences.

So, for the spring-autumn period, you should pay attention to lightweight models, which, thanks to special impregnation, will protect the operator not only from rain, wind, UV rays, but also from annoying insects.When choosing a suit for ice fishing, the main criterion is the best ability to retain heat, and Graff offers various solutions for the temperature range from 0 to -50 °C. The Graff 650-O-B model, made of durable moisture-resistant Bratex material, is especially popular. This fishing suit has optimal performance in conditions down to -30°C and at the same time has an affordable price.

3 NOVATEX

It's no secret that many manufacturers are very fond of winding up the price tag solely because of their own fame. Their products are often unreasonably expensive, and NOVATEX is the exact opposite of such brands. The catalog here is not the most extensive. In fact, only two lines deserve attention: Sable and Kamchatka. These are suits with maximum frost resistance, which can withstand up to -60 degrees. A very impressive figure, especially considering the convenience of the cut and quite high-quality materials.

All suits are membrane, that is, they are universal. You can feel comfortable in them both during severe frosts and during a thaw. Moisture inside does not accumulate, but is instantly brought out. And fishing enthusiasts will appreciate a large number of convenient pockets, some of which are completely protected from moisture. This is the best winter suit in terms of value for money. But before buying, we strongly recommend that you carefully inspect the product. Marriage from this manufacturer, unfortunately, is not uncommon.

2 Polar Rin

Winter is not only frost, but also a piercing wind, and it is much more difficult to hide from it.The fishing suit from the Chinese manufacturer Polar Rin is designed primarily for wind protection. Its temperature indicators are not as high, only -35 degrees, but as users note, it is comfortable to be in it even in a blizzard and snowstorm. It should also be noted the convenience of the cut and the overall quality. The suit has many protective inserts and is painted in bright colors.

The company is relatively new on the market, and it is still difficult to judge the quality and variety, but the prices are very pleasing. Compared to other models, the suit is quite budget. There is also a moisture wicking membrane. Not unique, but extremely reliable. Sweating in such equipment is almost impossible. A lot of pockets of different capacities add convenience, especially when fishing.

1 Nova Tour

The domestic manufacturer, like no one else, is familiar with the realities of the harsh Russian winter, thanks to which it has, albeit insignificant, but an advantage over its foreign competitors. Suits "Nova Tour" is a real "Alaska", designed for fishing in extreme temperatures and severe weather conditions. Consideration of individual models of the company would be akin to real depravity and bias, therefore, for lack of favorites, we will talk about all representatives at once. The Nova Tour company tried to produce a product line that best suits the conditions of a changeable winter, and it is worth saying that their idea was crowned with success.

At the forefront, the company put the issue of ensuring a comfortable temperature, the solution of which was the addition of a significant insulating layer capable of withstanding frosts down to -60 ... -40 degrees Celsius.To increase the service life, it was a logical decision to equip the outer layer with a waterproof fabric. She also became a kind of (but not the only) protection from the wind, the existence of which, after putting on a suit, one involuntarily begins to doubt. A nice addition to everything is the budget. The initial price for a suit varies from 8,000 to 17,000 rubles, so only a few manage to overpower the company in this segment.

How to choose a suit for fishing?

Unlike the summer fishing season, winter fishing obliges you to be more demanding on equipment, because not only the duration of fishing, but also the health of the fisherman depends on the characteristics of the suit. When choosing, you should pay attention to such features as:

1. Pockets. Their size and location should not only be functional. The main thing is that they allow not only to accommodate everything you need, but also to easily warm your hands if necessary.
2. Hood and collar. The protection of the head and neck from strong gusts of icy wind on the open mirror of the reservoir cannot be underestimated. At the same time, the hood must have a reliable fixation (have Velcro with fasteners, and not just rope puffs).
3. Waterproof. Winter fishing, one way or another, is connected with water, so this characteristic is one of the most important. This requirement fully applies to the tightness of the seams. The water rolling off the surface of the suit will not allow the clothes to get wet, which in the cold does not bode well. In addition, in case of falling through the ice (and this happens on winter fishing), the float suit, due to the peculiarity of its design, will not allow you to go under water, and this is a significant advantage.
4. Frost resistance. It depends on the characteristics of the lining material at what air temperature in winter you can go ice fishing. Regular fishing suits are generally rated for -15-25°C. Specialized heat-resistant equipment will allow you to feel comfortable on the ice even at -45 °C.
5. Colors. Oddly enough, but this feature can come in handy. A bright and visible from afar suit (reflective elements must be present) not only attracts attention, but also allows you to quickly find a fisherman and help him in case of various kinds of incidents.
