Grundéns, producer of the world’s leading fishing outerwear, apparel, and footwear, introduces its Spring/Summer 2025 collection, now available at retail partners and Grundens.com. The new product line features an armored upgrade for commercial fishermen in the Sternman Bib, the award-winning Vector Zip Stockingfoot Wader for fly fishing and wading, the Turbulence Hybrid Hoodie and the award-winning Tough Sun masked Hoodie, two versatile fishing hoodies designed to manage temperature regulation and protection from the elements. Additionally, the brand bolsters its performance footwear with the Deck-Runner Ankle Boot, Cross Current Boat Shoe, and Keeper Sneaker.
“At Grundéns, we’re driven by a passion for fishing and commitment to innovation,” says Bryan Trullinger, Grundéns VP of Marketing. Our Spring/Summer 2025 collection is designed to help fishermen stay out longer and perform better, with thoughtful details that make a big difference.”
Commercial Fishing
The Sternman Armored Bib is designed for durability, built to withstand the toughest conditions, and pays homage to the hard-working lobstermen of the Northeast. The 100 percent waterproof construction features body-mapped TPU “armor” that provides enhanced durability in high-abrasion areas, ideal for pulling traps, harvesting catch, and performing demanding deck work. The four-layer waterproof breathable shell contains 51 percent recycled nylon made from recycled fish nets. Additional features include reinforced scalloped cuffs, a gusseted crotch for maximum mobility, and interior knee pad pockets for optional knee pads.
Wading/Fly Fishing
The award-winning Vector Zip Stockingfoot Wader builds on the legacy of ruggedness and durability in Grundéns’ best-in-class Vector Wader. The Vector Zip Stockingfoot Wader enhances the in-water fishing experience with a fully submersible zipper entry wading system, Grundéns wading mobility patterning for easy movement, and a patent-pending Hauler Pocket, a 360-degree storage system that helps eliminate unnecessary bulk in the front of your waders. The ultra-dense microfiber four-layer waterproof breathable shell provides elite abrasion and puncture resistance while maintaining a 30K-plus waterproof rating to keep you protected, dry, and comfortable. Additional conveniences include two hand warmer pockets, two chest pockets, and a welded tippet pocket allowing easy access to rig up at a moment’s notice.
Versatile Fishing Outerwear & Apparel
Setting a new standard for fishing hoodies, the Turbulence Hybrid Hoodie boasts premium durability and temperature regulation management. Strategic, body mapped G-Loft stretch insulation impeccably regulates temperature which makes this hybrid extremely functional as a standalone hoodie or as the perfect mid-layer when fishing. Its recycled polyester stretch outer shell has a specialized coating for increased water, wind, and tear resistance to offer ultimate protection against the elements. Features include a spacious chest storage pocket, zippered handwarmer pockets, and quick-dry double weave cuffs that minimize water retention and maximize abrasion resistance in the forearms.
Adding to the brand’s best-selling collection of Tough Sun products, the award-winning Tough Sun Masked Hoodie is the toughest sun shirt on the water. The thoughtfully designed Masked Hoodie has an integrated face mask with laser-perforated holes for maximum coverage, which can be comfortably stored in the hood when not in use. Integrated thumb holes keep sleeves in place for back-of-hand solar protection, and HeiQ anti-odor, thermal regulating, and stain-release treatments compliment the Tough Sun Masked Hoodie easy-care, comfort qualities. As with all Tough Sun products from Grundéns, the new Masked Hoodie has a Lifetime Warranty. If the product fails, Grundéns will replace it, no questions asked.
Performance Fishing Footwear
The Deck-Runner Ankle Boot pairs the lightweight comfort and support from your everyday sneakers with the waterproof protection and durability you expect in rubber deck boots. The 100 percent waterproof construction is coupled with added support and comfort from a lightweight, high-rebound EVA midsole, alongside gridded neoprene lining, and a soft, removable OrthoLite sock liner. HeiQ Anti-Odor and the Thermo-Regulating lining finish help increase ventilation which also helps battle moisture and odor build up from your feet.
Also new for the performance fishing shoe collection are the Keeper Sneaker and CrossCurrent Boat Shoe. Built with versatility in mind, these two performance fishing shoes blend crossover functionality and all-day comfort to provide the ultimate fishing or everyday footwear platform. Both shoes are designed for barefoot wearability with breathable mesh upper, soft lining, and OrthoLite sock liners, making them water-friendly, quick-drying, supportive, and easy on/off.
The entire lineup of apparel and footwear is available now at specialty retailers across the country and at www.grundéns.com.
