The new version one with vents on the back to replace the tempest 100/v2 brolly?

Probably because the competition have similar prices on their new brollies/bivvy. New titan hide is about 400-450 and fox frontier 500.

It is unfortunately. Nash have also increased their prices of the original hides. Think with the whole brexit along with covid, increases in material costs and delays in getting the products out this has been passed to us customers

I think the brexit excuse is just smoke and mirrors. Why should brexit affect goods made in China and imported directly into the U.K. Greedy B@@@ards.

But the Tempest Brolly 100 model 2021 is 289 euro, that is not 500 pounds.

Price is a bit higher than the 2020 model, I think because of the addition of the rear vents.

It's certainly not helped. I've seen loads of posts about UK bait not being allowed over to France unless the companies get some kind of certificate and put it on packaging. That'll be additional cost no doubt. Then most imports have been delayed 3-4 months, fox frontiers only just got to the UK and the hide XL now may time

I did think that, ivr been looking at bivvys and not seen the brolly close to that value, didnt know if they'd just announced a newer one. Maybe been looking at the advanced or the brolly with all the additional options?

Trakker already do the tempest brolly advanced which is aquatex material and was over £450 it's been out 2/3 years and comes complete with front , groundsheet , storm poles so this one you have seen on angling direct website is probably just the newer replacement

If you've already got a V2 why get stressed out by the price of the new one?
Are you sure?
