Cypress, CA (June 27, 2022) – Patriots’ head coach Bill Belichick ain’t got nothin’ on you. There’s no doubt he severs the sleeves of his sweatshirts to achieve that recognizable look. We can only guess it functions to keep his clipboard clear of a cuff.
Daiwa’s new Wharf Rat hooded sweatshirt serves a purpose that all deckhands, guides and tournament anglers are way to fammiler with, and is custom cut and hemmed for a more stylish, finished look.
The purposely shortened sleeves of the Wharf Rat keep your arms clear for working in water, wetness inevitable in the boat. Saltwater anglers constantly find themselves reaching in the baitwell, chasing deep into the corners for the biggest, livliest bait. The end result being water working up to your armpits. But not with the Wharf Rat.
Same goes for reaching down into the drink to land a fish boat or bank-side. Rummaging around for a lip to grip and your long-sleeve gets soaked. But not with the Wharf Rat.
Even surfing through a cooler of ice to locate the last Diet Coke. Dang, you’re drenched. But not with the Wharf Rat.
Daiwa’s Wharf Rat is constructed of premium polyester with durable stitching and features sleeves that drop only 3-inches below the elbow. A full hood is supplemented with draws to snug when the wind howls. You can also warm those chilled fingers in the front pouch. Daiwa’s signature D-VEC mark appears on the chest, back, and left sleeve. Available in Black and Grey and sizes S through XXL. MSRP is $59.99. Available 2023.
Say farewell to that clammy feeling from wet sleeves. Daiwa made a seemingly simple design change to premium performance hooded sweatshirt and call it the Wharf Rat.
