Iwana RETRO Salmon Reels
SKU: NFD9193

Bogdan started making this style of reels in 1955, and they were very popular with anglers at that time. Many anglers still love these reels, even though he stopped making them a decade ago. We are bringing classic reels back to get more anglers to use Bogdan-style reels and providing them with good after-sales service. We believe that great reels should not be displayed in a cabinet but taken to the river to go fishing.

IWANA pays more attention to the stability of production and quality. We respect benchmade but not obsessed with 100% hand-made.Being the innovator in the classic reel design and manufacturing, we determine to bring the new and the old together, a fusion of sorts that will bring out the best of both worlds. The classic true and tested design, coupled with modern materials and advance CNC tooling system, IWANA has successfully achieved high degree of consistency and accuracy while maintaining top level of craftmanship. The same high standard can be seen in every IWANA reel that leaves the production line. The marriage of high tech tools and excellent craftmanship equates to the reduction of cost and time, making the IWANA range of classic reels affordable.

About Shaojie and Liang

Liu Shaojie, born in a family of construction machinery manufacturing, has developed a keen interest and talent in machinery and handwork since his childhood. Later, he went to University of Rochester in the United States. When he first arrived in the US in 2011, he saw Bogdan’s salmon reels in a second-hand fishing gear store and fell in love with this artistic work at first sight. Unfortunately, the famous classic reel maker (or artist) Bogdan passed away at the same year. To honor this artist, Liu Shaojie launched the first salmon reel re-engraved with Bogdan’s work in 2013 after dozens of improvements, and it has been loved by many salmon fishermen in North America and Europe. Since then, Liu Shaojie has established his own classical fish reel studio and has continuously improved the craftsmanship of classical reel.

In 2019, in Minami Alps National Park, Japan, Liu Shaojie and Wang Liang met each other beside a beautiful river with a lot of iwana fish. Based on the shared passion for fly fishing and classic equipment, the two became close friends. Wang Liang was born in the mountains of northeast China. He was withdrawn when he was a child and didn’t like playing with his peers. On the contrary, he likes to make friends with old fishermen by the river and talk about how to catch more big fish in different seasons. Northeast China is rich in natural resources, and fishing became the only extracurricular activity in Wang Liang’s childhood. Such a childhood not only established an infinite love for nature , but also gave him an extraordinary feeling for fish and rivers. He has explored his own handmade fishing tools since he was a child, studied fish habits, and used natural rules and common materials to invent fishing traps. Successfully catching more fish is the source of his excitement. After many years, he walked out of the mountains, experienced the hustle and bustle city life and the business competition, finally chose a quieter life, picked up the fishing rod again, and began to search for beautiful rivers from all over the world.

In 2020, Liu Shaojie and Wang Liang named their classic fishing reel brand “IWANA” because iwana was the first fish they caught together. Then, based on Bogdan’s product prototype, they built three classic fish reels one after another to deal with the small and medium-sized fish in the stream. They strive to revitalized more classical equipment based on the classic design and make them more suitable for modern people and modern equipment to use.

More classic reel that has been put in the collection cabinet is being brought back to the river by IWANA.

Fortis Sunglasses: Finseeker
SKU: NFD9345

The Pinnacle of Sunglass Design
Introducing the Finseekers, the culmination of years of research, samples and development have gone into forming the ultimate colour combinations. Designed to maximise clarity, enhance colours, increase contrast, illuminate dull tones and adapt to changing conditions. Available in both polymer (FS001, FS002, FS003) and glass lens options (FSG003).

All variations incorporate an anti-reflective coating on the inner side of the lens. The first of Fortis models to incorporate this feature designed to stop reflection from the users own face.

Moving onto the frames, the lightweight yet strong TR90 Nylon will withstand the toughest conditions.

The frame design boasts a myriad of features with vents for increased air flow to minimise internal fogging, sweat chambers to wick away moisture, rubber nose pad and tips on the arms provide maximum comfort. To top this all off, the sprung loaded hinges allow for over extension of the arms to not only protect against excessive stress but to also cater for all head shapes and sizes.

The Finseekers come with a microfibre cleaning cloth, durable hard case and dedicated quick release lanyard that can be permanently fixed to the frames

4 Models:

FS001 – Brown 247 Gold XBlok
A carefully selected and subtle brown lens with gold mirror. This lens is perfect for all round situations and with the addition of the gold XBlok to aid contrast, this Finseeker variant should be a staple for all angler’s stepping into the high end sunglass market. If you are unsure on what model is for you, look no further! Weight: 30g VLT = 19%

FS002 – Amber AMPM Silver XBlok
The amber Finseekers are the professionals colour of choice, able to bring to life the darkest areas. Originally designed for low light levels i.e sunrise and sunset, we have found this variant to be the most popular colour combination. The silver XBlok finish makes objects pop for a life in full colour. Weight: 30g VLT = 22%

FS003 – Green with Blue XBlok
A lens designed to mimic nature and provide a true representation of natural colour. This lens is the most comfortable and reduces eye fatigue. A favourite amongst sea and big water anglers where constant bright light comes from every angle. Weight: 30g VLT = 10%

FSG003 – Amber AMPM Silver XBlok SWITCH™
Our first glass lens into the Fortis range. Relentless development and no expense spared has formed the pinnacle of lens technology. Glass offers a multitude of advantages including clarity, scratch resistance and polarisation.
These Italian glass lenses incorporate our SWITCH™ technology. Our Switch or photochromic technology means that the lenses ‘switch’ in colour / shade when exposed to UV light. In bright light the lenses darken, in low light the lenses lighten. This allows the user perfect vision through the course of a session, whether that be at low light at dawn, stalking in the midday sun or looking for subtle signs of fish at dusk. Weight: 41.7g VLT = 13-27%
