Whilst filming his Summer Day Ticket Masterclass, Darrell Peck encountered all sorts of different weather conditions, typical of a British summer, but thanks to the Korda clothing range he was prepared for anything!
During his session, the Team Korda member has to endure everything from chilly nights to torrential downpours, and blazing sunshine.
If you want to be prepared for anything the weather throws at you, and dress like Darrell on the bank, then here is what you need:
THE KORDA FISHING CLOTHING DARRELL CHOSE FOR HIS SESSION
Korda DRYKORE Waterproof Jacket
This jacket has been designed to keep you dry in any conditions and is suitable for use all year round, as it is lightweight and breathable. So, whether you’re trying to dodge sudden summer showers, or wet winter weather, then this is the right choice.
The special DRYKORE fabric allows complete freedom of movement, and this Korda Waterproof Jacket has been tailored for a perfect and practical fit, with enough length at the back not to ride up above your waist; an integrated hood that can be adjusted for the perfect fit, and will stay on even in windy conditions; a high neck with a soft-touch flap, so it not only keeps out draughts but feels comfortable against your chin and face; and Velcro fastenings on the cuffs to prevent water from running down the inside of the sleeves whilst casting or playing fish.
Multiple pockets provide plenty of secure storage space, and easy access, for all your valuables.
Korda DRYKORE Waterproof Trousers
Waterproof and breathable, these DRYKORE trousers are the ideal choice in wet weather at any time of the year, whether wearing them over a pair of shorts in the summer, or thicker trousers in the winter.
They’ve been designed with enough room to fit over any trousers, but at the same time are tailored for a great fit and don’t feel excessively baggy, plus a quick-release belt and elasticated waistband ensure they stay in place.
They’re packed full of useful features, such as waterproof zips extending down to the knees on each side, to give you access to pockets in whatever you’re wearing underneath; microfibre knee pads for extra comfort when kneeling down; Velcro tabs on the leg openings for a secure fit over any type of shoes or boots; and a stretch fit material that won’t hinder your movement.
Korda Original Kombats
These combat-style trousers have been massively popular over the years and are modelled on a classic military army surplus design, with the use of 150gsm ripstop fabric, which is not only very lightweight, but also extremely durable and long-lasting, plus it’s quick-drying.
The Original Kombats are the perfect choice during the warmer months as the material wicks moisture away from your skin, as well as helping to prevent mosquito bites thanks to the tight weave. You won’t be lacking for storage space either, thanks to nine pockets, a mixture of zipped and Velcro flaps, to keep your valuables secure.
Korda Polar Fleece Jacket
This jacket is made from a heavy-knit fleece material and will keep you warm and snug, as well as being extremely comfortable to wear, and is the ideal choice when the temperature starts to drop during summer evenings, or for those chilly mornings before the sun rises.
The Polar Fleece Jacket features a full length zip, so is easy to get on and off, as well as for regulating your body temperature; it has a snug fitting hood plus a collar that comes high up the neck to keep out draughts; plus it is tailored for a fairly close fit to your body, but without impeding movement. Two zipped side pockets, plus a breast pocket, provide space for storing valuables.
Korda Birdsnest Tee
This T-shirt is crafted from a material with a unique peach skin finish, that gives it a soft, velvety feel against your skin, and makes it very comfortable to wear.
The fabric used for this Birdsnest Tee has been designed to endure frequent washing whilst still retaining its shape, and it features a large ‘birds nest’ Korda logo on the back, which is a nod towards the recycling of fishing line. Whether you are on the bank or down the pub with your mates, you’ll look the part wearing this.
Korda Classics Pro Polarised Sunglasses
Polarised sunglasses are essential for any angler, and Darrell Peck favours the Classics Pro model, which was one of the first Korda designs.
It offers a mixture and fashion and functionality, as not only do they look good when being worn, with their tortoiseshell frames, but will also help you to catch more fish, thanks to the high quality polarised lenses which are available in three different colours – brown, grey, or yellow - to cover all light conditions.
Korda Waterproof Boonie
The perfect choice of headwear when conditions are changeable, as it is equally as good at keeping the sun off of your face and neck, as it is at stopping you getting wet and water dripping onto you.
This Boonie hat is made from a waterproof cotton material and features a wide brim, plus an internal elastic adjustment allows it to fit any head size comfortably, whatever the conditions.
Korda Klassic Beanie
The Klassic Beanie is a great choice of headwear at any time of the year when the weather is a bit chilly, including summer nights, and will not only keep your head warm, but also looks great as well.
The stylish design of the Korda Klassic Beanie provides a snug, but comfortable, fit thanks to the knitted material that we have used, which has a bit of stretch in it and will fit pretty much any size of head. It comes in a choice of olive, Kamo, burgundy or rust, so whether you want to blend in, or wear something that adds a bit of colour to your catch shots, there’s a colour for you.
