AFTCO Hydronaut – Best New Fishing Apparels From ICAST
AFTCO’s Hydronaut™ just won the 2018 ICAST Best of Category – Technical Apparel with their new Hydronaut™ Heavy-Duty Waterproof System.

With its newest addition to AFTCO family of fishing rain gear, AFTCO’s product development team took extensive measures to re-engineer traditional fishing outerwear as we know it with a 20K 100% waterproof two-layer nylon shell, SpeedVent™ airflow hood, Cyclops integrated camera mount pocket, Double Dry internal sleeve cuff, ComfortFlex adjustable stretch shoulder system with mesh back, tricot hand warmer pockets and CORDURA® reinforced pliers pocket and knees.

Anglers will appreciate the versatility that this hoodie provides, whether worn as standalone shirt on cool days or integrated into your layering system as a mid-layer worn under one of your favorite AFTCO fishing jackets. The media and buyers at ICAST agreed, awarding the Hexatron Best of Category – Lifestyle Apparel. Hextatron is the perfect performance hoodie to keep you comfortable for a full day on the water.
