faq's

does this belt work with any net?

It's worked with all the nets we've tested it with. But we haven't tested all nets, so we can't say for sure. If it doesn't work for you then you can always send it back.

made by amy

With 20+ years of experience, she makes all our bags, with the help of a small team, from her studio in the Suffolk countryside.

Quality & Comfort

I bought this as when wading, or even bank fishing all day, I wanted something to support my lower back to save it from aching. Having seen the quality of the bags etc that Oscar & Nell sell already, I didn't hesitate buying the belt. It is so well made with quality materials, the clasp is like nothing you can buy elsewhere, and I just know it will last. The design is well thought out, as I knew it would be, with a net holder etc. I would recommend for anyone who is looking for a quality wading belt, the fact it can be used to hold the net and has D rings for other things to be attached is an added bonus.
