BOZEMAN, MT - Following up the company's successful product launch at the recent International Fly Tackle Dealer (IFTD), Simms announces the immediate availability of their Fall 2014 collection of fishing gear.

Leading the pack is the award-winning G4 Pro™ Jacket. With lighter 3-layer and more durable GORE-TEX® Pro Shell fabric, 9 storage pockets, integrated tool ports, and a highly water-resistant Dry Cuff™ design to keep water out, the G4 Pro is the most advanced jacket ever produced by Simms.

"The development of the new G4 Pro Jacket utilized all the talents of our product team here at Simms," says Brandan Hill, Senior Director of Product. "It represents the culmination of 20 years of outerwear development."

Rounding out the outerwear category is Simms expansion in insulating jackets. New for Fall 2014, the Kinetic Jacket combines PrimaLoft® Gold insulation with Polartec® Wind Pro stretch-fleece in a hoody jacket that provides warmth without bulk.

For those colder days, Simms debuts several cold weather shirts as part of the sportswear collection. The award-winning Confluence Reversible is two-shirts-in-one with 60 grams of insulation for the ultimate in versatility and warmth while the Blacks Ford Flannel provides stylish all-season protection. To accompany the shirts, the Story Work Pant and Cascade Softshell Pant work hard to keep anglers warm this fall.

In packs and bags, the Fall 2014 collection continues to push innovation. The new Dry Creek™ Boat Bag features a Catch & Release buckle for one-hand operation while providing more than ample gear storage. The redesigned collection of Dry Creek™ bags, including the Backpack, Hip Pack, Duffel and Roll-Top Bag, feature new and more durable TPU fabric and roll-top closures to keep angling gear protected and dry in the harshest elements.

"It has been a great year for Simms. The Fall 2014 collection is a testament to our commitment of enabling anglers to fish in any weather condition," says K.C. Walsh, Simms President.

The Fall 2014 line is now available at retailers across North America and online at SimmsFishing.com.
