Fishpond Flint Hills Vest
The Fishpond Flint Hills Vest is a light and airy vest that is hardly noticeable. All pockets of the Flint Hills are oriented inwards, meaning that if a pocket is not filled with a fly box or other accessories, this pocket does not stand out and is therefore hardly noticeable. This of course makes the most minimal among us anglers happy! All the more surprising is that the vest has 6 large compartments for fly tins, both in horizontal and vertical orientation. In addition to the stowage options, there is no shortage of ways to attach tools. The vest has both the well-known Fishpond Hypalon tabs for retractor and co, as well as normal attachment tabs for tippet dispensers and other important tools. One last other large pocket we find on the back of the vest. A mesh pocket large enough to fit a rain jacket or second layer of clothing if you want to fish late into the evening.
Thanks to the airy mesh design made from recycled 210D Cyclepond Fabric, this vest is also great for those extra hot days of summer. On cold days, on the other hand, you can comfortably pull it over your thick insulation layers, because the adjustable straps allow you to adjust the fit quickly and easily. In short: a universal vest for all seasons, made of particularly environmentally friendly material and equipped with extra pockets.

Established more than 20 years ago, the American manufacturer Fishpond is known for high-quality backpacks, packs and accessories. In fact, all of these products have one thing in common: They combine a practice-oriented design, an outstanding quality and a stylish appearance – exactly what demanding fly fishermen need. Furthermore, Fishpond places great emphasis on sustainability, which leads to eco-friendly production methods and an inspiring company philosophy. Thus, most products are made almost exclusively from recycled materials. In order to meet the high demands of durable fly fishing gear, Fishpond has developed three innovative materials: the so-called Cyclepond, EcoNyl and NewStream. They are made from 100% recycled materials – for example, from old fishing nets or plastic bottles. According to the motto “functionality meets sustainability”, all Fishpond products set completely new standards in many different ways!
