BLOCK ISLAND, RI, May 1st, 2008 – Fishing gear company, Old Harbor Outfitters (OHO), introduces the new generation of their award winning technical fishing shorts.
After two years of design and testing, the OHO team has created the next evolution in technical fishing shorts by incorporating such features as a patent pending built-in fishing harness, corrosion-proof D-Rings, Cordura® lined puncture-proof tool pockets and tool lanyard loops. The Storm TechnicalTM Shorts are constructed from a lightweight yet durable stain-release Supplex® nylon fabric and boast a slew of functional features including a stretch crotch panel, multiple zippered pockets and even a pocket designed specifically for a safety knife. Old Harbor Outfitters’ 2008 Spring line of performance shorts will consist of four styles, including a stylish board short made out of a peached micro-fiber with an integrated stain release treatment.
“We set out to create the best fishing shorts on the market, period. We loaded them with all the latest in design technology and fabric treatments, created the ultimate fit and then integrated all the features that we felt were important to the serious fisherman. All of our shorts have Cordura® lined puncture-proof tool pockets on each side with a tool lanyard loop so that you won’t risk losing any of your fishing essentials overboard,” said Peter Ostroske, SVP of Product Development.
The OHO Storm TechnicalTM Short features a patent pending integrated fighting harness with side D-rings that allow anglers a fast clip on gimbal system. No more stumbling around the cockpit adjusting the gimbal during those crucial seconds. Try a clip on system that’s actually built right into the shorts. Gimbal sold separately.
