Matrix Charcoal Marl Zip Hoody
Expertly selected by Gerry’s Fishing – Modern style meets heavyweight performance.
The Matrix Charcoal Marl Zip Hoody offers a fresh, contemporary look for the angler who wants high-performance bankside apparel that doesn’t look like “traditional” fishing gear. At Gerry’s Fishing, we find the Charcoal Marl finish to be particularly popular because it hides the inevitable dust and dried groundbait marks better than solid black, keeping you looking sharp throughout a long session.
Just like the Stealth version, this hoody is built with a substantial 305gsm fabric weight. This isn’t your average thin high-street hoody; it is a rugged, warm, and durable garment designed to withstand the friction of seatbox straps and the demands of life on the bank.
Why the Charcoal Marl Zip Hoody is a Top Choice:
-
Premium Marl Fabric: The 76% cotton and 24% polyester blend provides a soft, “fleece” feel on the inside while the exterior remains tough and resistant to pilling.
-
Temperature Control: The full-zip design makes it incredibly easy to layer up or down. Whether you’re working up a sweat while mixing 4kg of groundbait or sitting still in a cold wind, you can regulate your temperature instantly.
-
Minimalist Styling: Features the subtle Matrix disc logos on the chest and rear shoulder, offering an understated “pro” look that matches any tackle setup.
-
Wind Protection: The elasticated ribbed cuffs and waist hem are designed to sit snugly against your body, preventing cold drafts from whistling up your back while you’re seated.
-
Reliable Hardware: Every hoody is fitted with a heavy-duty zip and a custom-moulded puller tag, ensuring smooth operation even when your hands are wet or cold.

Where to Use the Charcoal Marl Zip Hoody
This hoody is a true four-season staple:
-
Active Match Sessions: The zip-up design is much more practical for match fishing than a pullover, as it won’t disturb your cap or polarized glasses when you need to take it off in a hurry.
-
Chilly Summer Mornings: Perfect for that walk from the car park to the peg at 6:00 AM before the sun has had a chance to warm the air.
-
Winter Mid-Layer: Wear this over a thermal base layer and under your heavy winter suit. The 305gsm fabric creates a brilliant thermal air pocket to trap body heat.
-
The “Travel” Hoody: Because it looks like high-end casual wear, it’s the ideal choice for traveling to venues, visiting the tackle shop, or grabbing a post-match coffee.
Gerry’s Pro Tip: “The Charcoal Marl is arguably the most practical color in the range. It looks great paired with the Matrix LW Cargo Trousers for a modern, technical look. If you prefer a looser fit for casting, we recommend going one size up from your usual T-shirt size.”
