Westin W4 Super Duty Softshell Jacket
Price from 69.81 € View productsWarm, wind and water-resistant fishing softshell for serious anglers
The Westin W4 Super Duty Softshell Jacket is a technical fishing jacket designed for anglers who need reliable protection from wind, light rain and cold air, without losing freedom of movement. It works perfectly as a versatile outer or mid layer for boat and bank fishing in changeable UK weather.
Protective 4-way stretch softshell outer
The outer shell of the W4 Super Duty Softshell Jacket is made from a 4-way stretch softshell fabric with a wind and water-resistant TPU membrane. This combination helps to block cold wind and light precipitation while allowing natural movement when casting, netting or handling tackle. The fabric is durable enough for regular use around boats, rocks and banks.
Warm polar fleece lining for cool sessions
The inner lining in the chest, back and hood is made from soft polar fleece, providing a warm and comfortable microclimate during early morning and late evening sessions. The fleece lining helps to retain body heat without adding unnecessary bulk, so the jacket layers easily over base layers and under a heavier shell when conditions get harsher.

Today Westin Fishing Tackle offers a wide range of trusted lures, rods and other fishing equipment – all produced with the same passion for perfection as Ingvar Westin’s original lure, and created to satisfy those looking for the best tools to pursuit monster fish.
Ingvar Westin grew up in the fertile fishing grounds north of Stockholm. There, he plied his trade as a skilled toolmaker, creating intricate carvings and devices for artisans in the nearby cities. Ingvar lived a humble life, so when his children wanted a new toy, he decided to create one himself.
Soon, Ingvar began work on a carved, wooden fish that wriggled and rolled in the water just like a real fish. Ingvar spent countless hours refining the toy to get a perfect, lifelike action that he knew would thrill his children. In the process, he inadvertently created a new swimming motion, the Westin roll. When Ingvar’s work was complete, he christened that toy the “Jätte” — Swedish for “giant.”
Word of Ingvar’s creation spread quickly in the small town of Skutskär. Wedged between the Baltic Sea and the River Dalalven, the town— which even today is home to just 6,000 people— could be called fishing obsessed. In no time at all, local fishermen were obsessed with Ingvar’s toy. They noticed that large pike seemed to be irresistibly attracted to the wooden carving and its rolling action, and they began clamoring for Ingvar to put hooks on the Jätte and allow them to fish with it.
Soon, a cottage industry developed, and Ingvar transitioned from a toolmaker to a lure maker with a bustling production line fueled by the prolific pike waters of Sweden.
By the time stories of a 45 lbs pike caught on a Jätte began circulating in 1977, Ingvar Westin’s lure was known throughout Scandinavia as the go-to big predator lure.
Since then, the Westin Jätte has deceived some of the biggest, wiliest old pike in Sweden. What started out as a child’s plaything in 1952 has now become a well-established and trusted brand in the fishing tackle industry.
