Gear Review: Huk Rover Jacket

WHAT IS IT?

HuK Rover Jacket

WHAT SETS IT APART?

Made for men and women anglers, the Huk Rover Jacket features an adjustable bungee hood for the right fit to keep rain and wind out. The vented back is a nice touch for warm season use, while zippered chest and hand pockets keep valuables out of the weather’s reach, but well within yours. Made with a packable form, this handy jacket rolls up and conveniently tucks into its own zippered chest pocket. Available in four color options.

HOW DO I USE IT?

Not every “weather” day brings a deluge or shivering cold. But even a light rain and persistent chill can prove distracting enough to rob focus. Huk addresses this need in the outdoor outerwear arena by introducing the Rover Jacket, a lightweight, waterproof design that’s made with a 2.5L waterproof body fabric for superior water resistance that keeps anglers dry even during heavy rain or splashes. Central to this objective, fully seam-sealed construction prevents water penetration and keeps anglers protected from head to hem.

ANGLER’S INSIGHT:

Flexibility is essential to fishing success — not only in our decisions and tactics, but also in the essential gear. Huk’s newest introduction supports this notion by creating the Rover Jacket with a 5% polyester and 5% spandex blend that smartly blends comfort, flexibility and durability. Promoting unrestricted movement, this jacket’s packable design makes it convenient for boating, paddling or walking the shoreline. Taking up minimal space in boat, kayak, tackle bag or backpack storage, the Rover’s easily retrieved when weather threatens.
