DAIWA PIER 39 and L'ÉCHOPPE Elevate Fishing Wear with GORE-TEX INFINIUM

DAIWA PIER 39 and L'ÉCHOPPE Elevate Fishing Wear with GORE-TEX INFINIUM

DAIWA PIER 39, a premier Japan fishing label, and boutique retail store L'ÉCHOPPE have teamed up to create a collaborative jacket and pant combination, fusing elements of recreational fishing with everyday wear practicalities.

The capsule collection references traditional British fishing jacket and pants while incorporating modern materials, specifically GORE-TEX INFINIUM. Building off of DAIWA PIER 39’s expertise in technology and the production of fishing wear, the high-collared protective outerwear is equipped with many details that are essential for fishing in terms of functionality while designed for everyday wear. Two large storage pockets, a signature characteristic of fishing jackets, is supplemented with an additional, smaller chest pocket. Meanwhile, the lightweight GORE-TEX INFINIUM fabric in combination with the relaxed fitting sleeves provides extensive range of motion for all activities. The wide-legged trouser, which is an extension of the collaborative top, is constructed with cargo pleated pockets that allow for overstorage yet can be paired with daily wear.

Take a closer look at the protective garments below that will be released only at the online store of L'ÉCHOPPE.
