But, with new materials, new design and new cutting patterns, that’s exactly what we’ve done and our new Prestige range is quite simply the best breathable clothing we’ve ever made.
For nearly 20 years anglers have relied on our top quality Vapour-Tec‚ breathable material, renowned for its performance and total reliability. Our new Prestige range uses our reliable quality Vapour-Tec material, but in a range of waterproofs, newly styled for the modern day angler.

Our Prestige range uses quality Vapour- Tec material, in a range of waterproofs, newly styled for the modern day angler.
Snowbee Vapour-Tec® is a true outdoor fabric. The key to its enhanced performance and unmatched comfort is in the advanced TPU microporous laminate. TPU is a Hydrophilic membrane, the structure of which allows moisture to be wicked away from the body and transferred through the fabric to the outside in the evaporated state. The micro-pores in the TPU laminate are large enough to allow moisture vapour (perspiration) out, but far too small to allow water molecules in, making the fabric totally waterproof.
This breathable membrane is laminated to a tough outer shell, combining softness with strength and wind-resistance. As you warm up inside the garment, the air inside becomes hot and humid, relative to that outside. This raises the vapour pressure inside which forces moisture, in the form of perspiration and condensation, through the PU Breathable membrane, leaving you cool and dry all day long.

Fleece Jacket and Pullover
We all know that the most effective way of keeping warm is using the ‘layering system’, whereby thin ‘layers’ are built up, trapping a layer of air between each garment. However, this is not always possible with a thick fleece, which is simply too bulky for comfort. Our new range of Fleece Jackets and Pullovers are therefore constructed in a soft, 240g polyester fleece which is warm enough to wear as an outer layer on chilly days, but thin enough to use as a mid layer on cold days.
Colour: 2-Tone Olive
Sizes: S(36/38”), M(38/40”), L(40/42”), XL(42/44”), XXL(44/46”)
The jacket has a full length front zip with two side pockets and a vertical chest pocket, while the pullover has a ¼ zip neck and 2 side pockets. As versatile as a sweater and offering sensational value for money, these garments are sure to become a favourite in your wardrobe!
Colour: 2-Tone Olive
Sizes: S(36/38”), M(38/40”), L(40/42”), XL(42/44”), XXL(44/46”)
Fleece Caps & Head Overs

19412 Fleece Head-over
Our original fleece head-over has been a top-seller for nearly ten years, but it was due an update. The new model features soft, hi-stretch 300g anti-pill fleece with an elasticated draw cord and toggle-lok, so it can be drawn in as required, to keep out the wind and cold.
This versatile garment is more practical than a scarf, as it can be worn around the neck, as a muffler, pulled up over the ears, mouth and nose for additional warmth, or worn as a ‘beanie’, with the draw cord pulled in tight.
Colour: Sage Green
Size: One size fits all
Thermal Underwear
All breathable layering systems rely on one simple principle to perform at their best – a good quality base layer designed to wick perspiration quickly away from the skin. The new Snowbee ‘Base Layer’ Thermal Underwear does just that. Made from a high-tech, double layer knitted fabric, consisting of a permeable polyamide inner layer to wick moisture quickly away from the skin, with a cotton outer layer, which absorbs moisture and allows it to quickly evaporate.
This highly elastic material fits close to the body, to allow maximum wicking performance. Once perspiration has been transferred away from the skin to the mid layer, the breathable outer garment can get to work to transfer it through the breathable membrane to the outside, keeping you dry and warm in the harshest conditions. Trials have shown this underwear to be one of the lightest, warmest and most comfortable we have ever tried.
Two-layer knitted fabric - polyamide inside, pure cotton outside
The permeable loyamide innere layer wicks moisture quickly away from the skin, to the outer layer
The cotton outer layer soaks up perspiration to allow rapid evapaoration

Snowbee Haldon Shooting Clothing
The new Haldon Shooting Clothing from Snowbee represents a new departure for the well known fly fishing company. Having built a superb reputation for reliable, quality waterproof clothing over many years, the company decided it was time to enter the Shooting market.
Having shooters amongst the company staff has helped Snowbee to design clothing aimed directly at the shooting market, with many innovative features.
The new range uses a quality Khaki coloured outshell, blended in 15% nylon & 85% polyester, for strength, durability and wear resistance. The outer face has a brushed finish to make this material soft to the touch, flexible & completely silent. Lined with our top quality Vapour-Tec® breathable / waterproof membrane, renowned for its performance and total reliability, giving this new range a class leading performance of 4000 g/m2/24 hrs breathability and 5000 mm H20 hydrostatic pressure, for comfort in all weathers.
All wearing surfaces, such as the inside collar lining, front storm flaps, pocket edging and sleeve cuffs, are reinforced with contrasting dark olive, artificial suede material for additional wear.
Our new ¾ length Shooting Jacket has simple, clean lines which will appeal to shooters and all country sportsmen. There are two good sized, fleece-lined hand warmer pockets with storm flap over the openings, and below these are two generously sized bellows pockets, large enough to take ample cartridges. For the shooters, there are pocket tab retainers inside the hand warmer pockets to hold these open.
A 2-way front zip is protected by a double storm flap, plus a rain-proof zip pocket under the flap, but outside the main zip, allowing quick access, ideal for mobiles, car keys etc. The high, lined collar has a fully adjustable 3-panel hood, with stiffened peak, which can be easily removed by its stud fastenings when shooting.
Inside the jacket are a knife pocket, a deep chest pocket for wallets etc and a generously sized, zipped ‘poacher pocket’. On the rear, the shoulders have rear pleats to allow plenty of movement when shooting and there is a full width, lined, waterproof ‘game pocket’ across the back of the jacket. The jacket is fitted with an internal waist draw cord and on either side, there is a ‘game loop’ for hanging birds etc.

Wide Brim 'Ranger' Hat
With the increasing awareness of the harmful effects of too much sun, we are frequently asked for a Wide Brimmed Fishing Hat…well here it is. Baseball caps are fine, but offer little protection to the ears and back of the neck. Our hat solves that problem in a stylish & practical way & is treated with an anti-UV agent for maximum protection.
When we sent the material sample to the SGS Laboratory for testing, it went off the scale! It actually came back with an ‘actual’ UPF (Ultra-Violet Protection Factor) of 2569 allowing just 0.03% of UVA and 0.04% of UVB to pass through! Unfortunately, the ‘official’ rating system only goes up to a factor 50+…the equivalent of wearing Factor 50 Sunscreen, so we had to settle for this!
Made from a tough 10oz Cotton Duck material, which breathes naturally for summer coolness. Treated with DuPont Teflon for water resistance, this hat will also keep you dry in a downpour. Complete with an adjustable chin-strap for windy conditions, which can be tucked away inside the hat with a neat Velcro strap. Has a second Velcro pocket inside the hat crown for fishing licence etc.
Hat sizes are given in INCHES which is the “head diameter”. To measure your size, use a tape measure & measure the circumference of your head, loosely, running the tape just above the ears and approx. 1” above the eyebrows. Then refer to the chart below for your correct size.
Colours: Stone (with Dk.Olive under brim) & Dk. Olive
Sizes: S (63/4”-6 7/8”). M (7”–7 1/8”) , L (7¹⁄4”-7 3⁄₈”), XL (71/2”–7 5⁄8”)

SFT Neoprene Gloves & Socks
The new Snowbee Seamless Fusion Technology (SFT) is without doubt the most exciting development in Neoprene construction for years. This new, patented technique is used to produce some totally unique new Neoprene gloves and socks, which will appeal to all fishing and shooting disciplines.
13124 Snowbee SFT Neoprene Gloves
Unlike traditional neoprene construction where the seams are butt glued & blind stitched, this new technique uses new technology to weld the seams together and then apply an ultra thin, highly elastic tape. This results in a 100% waterproof, seamless product.
The neoprene used is a new 4-way high-stretch, 100% CR neoprene, but only 1mm thick, so for the first time you can have a neoprene fishing glove, which is a good tight fit, but ultra thin, allowing you to feel everything…. and remain 100% dry.
To give added grip, without bulk, the palms & finger panels on the gloves are screen printed with a silicone ink, which provides a totally flat surface, but gives amazing grip and feel, even when wet.
Colour: Pine Green. Royal blue
Sizes: S, M, L, XL
Also available in Royal Blue>
13141 Lightweight Neoprene Gloves
A lightweight version of our long wrist Neoprene gloves with a Nylon Jersey knit palm with rubberised “dots” pattern for extra grip, allowing the gloves to be kept on when fishing or shooting. The tips of the thumb and index finger are left exposed to allow tying of knots, or loading, without removing the gloves.
Colour: Dark Green with Black palm
Sizes: S, M, L, XL
13154 Snowbee SFT Neoprene Socks
This new technology is also used to produce 100% waterproof socks, which again will find favour amongst anglers of all disciplines. Even if that rogue wave catches you unawares, these will keep you 100% dry all day.
Colour: Pine Green
Sizes: S, M, L, XL
