Technical specifications

The NASH ZT Lite Dry Pack Trousers are made from a 2-layer technical fabric that offers an excellent balance between waterproofing and breathability. All seams are fully taped with thermally bonded seam tape, ensuring reliable protection even under sustained rain. This level of finish increases the garment’s durability and prevents water ingress at vulnerable seams.

• 15K waterproof rating, providing effective protection against prolonged showers and water splashes at the waterside.
• 20K breathability (g/m²/24h), to limit internal condensation and maintain comfort during walking or position changes.
• 2-layer fabric construction with fully sealed seams, built for intensive outdoor use.
• Lightweight and packable material, ideal for mobile anglers prioritizing freedom of movement.
• Zipped pocket system offering secure storage for small accessories and easy access to pockets of garments worn underneath.
• Reinforced key zones at the knees and seat to withstand wear from kneeling or prolonged seated positions.
• Adjustable leg hems with Velcro and extended zips, allowing the trousers to be put on over shoes or boots.
• Designed to integrate into a technical fishing outfit, with a cut suited to various clothing layers.

This combination of features makes this model a reliable technical fishing rain trouser, suited to quick sessions and extended stays alike, whatever the changing conditions at the water’s edge.

Benefits and key strengths

The primary advantage of these trousers is their ability to provide effective waterproof protection without weighing down your kit. Their light weight and compactness make them an obvious choice for those who move frequently between spots or practice mobile fishing that requires compact equipment.

High breathability reduces the heat and internal humidity often felt with standard rainwear. You can walk, set up, stand up and handle your gear without feeling trapped in a plastic layer. This moisture management is a real plus during stormy days or cool mornings that quickly warm up.

Reinforced knees and seat are a major advantage for anglers who spend a lot of time kneeling to bait, handle fish or adjust rigs. These reinforcements extend the garment’s lifespan and prevent premature wear in the most stressed areas.

Finally, the zipped pockets and easy access to the pockets of your shorts or trousers underneath add a highly practical functional dimension. You keep essential accessories within reach while benefiting from a reliable barrier against rain and moisture.

Usage tips

Keep the NASH ZT Lite Dry Pack Trousers permanently in your fishing bag or in an easily accessible compartment of your kit. That way you can pull them out in seconds as soon as the sky clouds over or the ground becomes too wet. Put them on over your usual fishing trousers at the first signs of rain to prevent your base layers from becoming saturated.

Carefully adjust the leg hems using the Velcro to create a neat interface with your shoes or boots. This helps limit water and mud ingress from below. When walking to your spot, take advantage of the trouser’s breathability by avoiding excessive insulating layers underneath if the temperature is mild.

After your session, allow the trousers to air dry before folding and storing. Complete drying preserves the fabric’s properties and prevents damp odors. Fold carefully to maintain compactness so they take up as little space as possible in your gear. Avoid intense heat sources that could damage the membrane or seam tape.

Some say they enabled them to keep fishing comfortably through unexpected showers without having to call it a day.
