Oceanside, California, April 21, 2016 – AFTCO is once again the official apparel sponsor of the 2016 Hobie® Fishing Team. Each team member will be dressed to the nines in the latest AFTCO apparel. Men will be wearing a royal blue Samurai Performance Shirt or charcoal Cumulus Tech Fishing Shirt with Solmar Sun Protection Gloves. Ladies will be sporting a Guy Harvey Collection blue Sport Tech Shirt or turquoise Cap Sleeve Performance Shirt, also with Solmar Sun Protection Gloves. Each piece of apparel is christened with Hobie logos in contrasting colors to easily identify Hobie Fishing Team members on and off the water.
AFTCO’s apparel is a top choice amongst hardcore anglers who experience the most extreme conditions. The brand sports a perfect fit for kayak anglers on the water an average of 50 days a year or more. “We want our team to fly the Hobie flag while they’re fishing and be able to perform at their best. Once we sampled the AFTCO clothing, we knew it hit the bullseye for workhorse clothing that sets our anglers apart,” commented Kevin Nakada, Hobie Fishing Team Coordinator.
The Hobie Fishing Team continues to grow in numbers, professionalism and reach and AFTCO has the team covered. “AFTCO is proud to partner with the Hobie Fishing Team once again in 2016. Hobie team members will be outfitted with the best that AFTCO has to offer in performance fishing apparel,” said Bill Shedd, AFTCO President.
