MORE ABOUT THE COLLECTION:

Nocta’s Opal collection is an opportunity to celebrate a long-standing family tradition Nicholas ‘Niko’ Carino, Drake’s childhood friend, shared with his Dad and uncle his entire life.

The brand, often inspired by family and friends, has been enamored with the fly fishing community and its unique ability to forge deep bonds between people, transcending backgrounds and cultural differences. The sport fosters a sense of belonging, camaraderie, and a shared identity that can endure a lifetime.

The collection, anchored by a collaboration with Abel Reels, combines utility, comfort and style. While some of the prints are not as customary, the DNA of the collection is fly fishing at its core, and Nestor Carino, whose been fly fishing for over 50 years, helped ground the collection, ensuring that every item feels as authentic as the person wearing it.
