Back in 2000 E-S-P were among the first of the mainstream carp tackle companies to offer a range of top quality, functional waterproof garments and fleeces aimed purely at the carp angler.
Over the next few years E-S-P clothing dominated the bank side and became the ‘label of choice’ for many carpers, at the same time paving the way for many other brands of carp clothing to emerge and flood the market.
With that in mind, last year we went back to the drawing board and assessed many different types of functional outdoor clothing and materials before coming up with some completely new designs.
We wanted practical, light weight, comfortable waterproofs that not only performed well, but also looked the part and which were equally suited when worn on the bank, or as fashionable casual garments.
So we stripped everything down, got rid of excess weight and bulk, sourced new fabrics and went for a more streamlined, fitted cut. As a result the E-S-P Stash Jacket and Stash Trousers were born, the first of whole new range of ESP waterproofs with more to follow in the Autumn.
E-S-P Stash Jacket
The Stash Jacket has a smart fitted cut which still offers plenty of freedom of movement. It is made from a lovely soft touch fabric which is 5,000 waterproof and 3,000 breathable in olive green with contrasting ‘ESP orange’ logo and zip pulls.
The inside of this unlined jacket has a unique ESP printed laminate, a really nice touch and completely tape sealed seams.
Other features include a really comfortable sculptured adjustable peaked hood, a high collar to keep the draught out, plus adjustable waist and cuffs.
A full length waterproof zip and four clever ‘double decker’ pockets (two each side) which are accessed by a double ended waterproof zip offer plenty of storage.
The jacket is lightweight and perfect for Spring, Summer and Autumn and can be compressed down really small for storage in rucksack pockets etc.
Available in sizes S – XXL, RRP £69.95.
E-S-P Stash Trousers
A perfect pair of lightweight waterproof and breathable trousers made in the same fabric as the Stash Jacket.
They offer a comfortable fit with an elasticated draw cord waist, plus reinforced knee panels and waterproof boot zips. Excellent over trousers that can be rolled up and stored in a rucksack pocket.
Available in sizes S – XXL, RRP £59.95.
