Large selection of outdoor vests at ASMC

An outdoor vest is the ideal companion for activities in nature. The so-called fishing vest is a sleeveless jacket that is suitable for protection against wind and weather, and not just for the transitional period. We offer a large selection of outdoor vests from well-known manufacturers such as Rough Stuff, Woolpower or Carinthia in a wide range of colors for outdoors and everyday use.

Versatile fishing vest for every occasion

If you are looking for a versatile piece of clothing that can be worn almost all year round, an outdoor vest is definitely the right choice! Fishing vests are sleeveless jackets made of materials that vary in thickness. If you buy an outdoor vest from Woolpower, for example, you can be sure that you are buying a warm fishing vest for the cold season. On the other hand, there are outdoor vests that are made from a thin microfiber-cotton mix, for example, and are therefore suitable for the transitional period or warm summer nights.

Fishing vests are real all-rounders and can be combined in many different ways. Whether for sports or long hikes: an outdoor vest is a real all-rounder that can be worn on many occasions and in almost all weather conditions.

We have a wide selection of tried and tested fishing vests for everyone and every occasion: In addition to simple solid colors such as black or olive, you will also find plenty of outdoor vests in a variety of camouflage colors such as Flecktarn, Woodland or Multicam in our range.

The high-quality fishing vests from Rough Stuff, Carinthia and Co provide excellent protection against wind and weather and effectively warm the upper body. Thanks to their sleeveless cut, these functional outdoor vests are particularly suitable for sporting activities: They are airy and protect parts of the body such as the kidneys from wind and cold, which significantly reduces the risk of catching a cold in cold weather.

In addition, an outdoor vest offers more freedom of movement and therefore does not restrict the user in any way during a wide variety of activities. This feature benefits the wearer especially in sports that require a high degree of freedom of movement, such as climbing or fishing. This is where the term fishing vest comes from, which is often used as a synonym for the tried and tested outdoor vests.

Practical fishing vest for wind and weather

Outdoor vests are characterized by a particularly wide range of materials and can therefore be worn almost all year round. A fishing vest can be worn as a midlayer or as the top layer of clothing. While those that are suitable as a jacket replacement are mainly made of warm down or a blend of wool and polyester, the midlayers come with lighter, thinner materials. These can be outdoor vests made of thin polyester material, for example, which are then particularly suitable for the transitional period or on cooler summer nights.

Questions: West

Which outdoor vest is particularly suitable for cooler days?

The most suitable warm fishing vests are those made of wool or synthetic fiber. Outdoor vests with down or thermal lining also provide the best warmth on colder days. The insulation in fishing vests made of synthetic fiber is particularly effective even when wet: they are particularly breathable and are characterized by their effective heat retention when wet. Wool blends behave in the same way: they are able to absorb around 30% of their own weight in moisture without feeling wet and impairing the insulation.

What is important in a fishing vest?

The slim, close-fitting cut keeps the warmth close to the body. This cut also makes it easier to wear as a midlayer under other jackets, while wider-cut fishing vests are better suited as the top layer of clothing, as they can also be worn comfortably under hoodies and sweaters.

When buying your new outdoor vest, please also pay attention to the corresponding product description: The materials differ in their breathability and not all are water-repellent or even waterproof. In principle, however, fishing vests are not a basic replacement for a jacket in bad weather. Since they are sleeveless, they only offer limited protection from wind and rain! To determine the right size, we refer you to the ASMC size chart.
