Geoff Anderson Dozer Rough Black Jacket

Dozer Rough – uncompromising waterproof design

Designed for truly demanding fishing, whether from a boat or on a muddy riverbank

Our Dozer jackets have been made for 24 years.

They combine functionality and comfort, making them an all-rounder among fishing jackets.

They are popular with everyone from fly anglers to sea anglers. Their versatility is made possible by the carefully selected materials and design. This is why the Dozer Rough is significantly different from other models.

The Dozer Rough is entirely uncompromising in extreme conditions involving rain, mud and wind, and when fishing for big fish.

This design was developed for anglers who catch and release big fish. That is why the trousers have no sharp edges, zips or Velcro fastenings at the front, so the fish are not harmed.

The Dozer Rough celebrates simplicity without sacrificing familiar functionality, as this clothing is designed for anglers who catch and release fish.

Functions:
Our aim with the Rough version is to create the toughest Dozer yet, able to do much more and last longer in extreme conditions.

This means that durability and water repellency/waterproofness have been dramatically improved through various new developments in its construction.

Detailed, tailored features and methods have been incorporated into the Rough version.

The hood can be stored inside the collar

The collar is higher and wider. When you want, it can protect approximately 3/4 of your face.

The back is longer, so you can sit on the jacket.

The shoulders, elbows and seat are reinforced.

The fabrics are coated and reinforced to meet the requirements of the most rigorous waterproofness tests. You can also tell by touch that our product is high-performance.

Heavy-duty YKK zip at the front.
A lightweight lining provides greater comfort during high activity.

The Dozer Rough represents solid experience on your fishing trips when, as a specimen enthusiast seeking to catch the fish of your dreams, you head out through mud, rain and wind.

100% waterproof and breathable fabrics keep heavy rain and wind out.

The Dozer Rough is suitable for saltwater. Our design is saltwater-resistant and features the latest generation of YKK® zips.

Dozer Rough:
The peaked hood can be adjusted with one hand using the drawcord.

The fit of the Dozer Rough has been optimised and adjusted to give anglers an even better experience when fishing from a boat or on a muddy bank.

Care and reproofing of waterproof clothing
We know that our waterproof products are hard-wearing and durable.

It is no secret that dirt, salt and ordinary detergents can affect the durability and water-repellent performance of clothing after some time in use. Breathability and performance are reduced, and the clothing feels wet and heavy. All this is a good reason to care for clothing properly.

Proper care maintains water repellency and ensures that the membrane works optimally. It also extends the life of the products – good for your wallet and the environment.

The three most common signs that your fishing clothing needs care are odour, black marks and white marks.

Odour
Machine wash using the recommended detergents*. After washing, while the garment is damp, treat it with the recommended DRW spray*.

Black marks
These are a sign of mould. They develop after damp, dirty storage.
Removal: Gently scrub these areas with a mixture of vinegar and lukewarm water.

White marks
A sign of salt deposits on the fabric.
Removal: Leave the clothing in water at 2 degrees for 30 hours. Then treat the jacket while it is still damp with the recommended DRW spray*.

Everyday care

Rinse with fresh water after using the product in contact with saltwater
Remove dirt, blood and fish slime with a cloth, then rinse the product with fresh water
If you see brown or white deposits/marks on the product, this is a sign that it needs to be machine-washed
Hang the clothing to dry in a warm room
If the clothing is stored while damp or cold, it may rot or become mouldy, significantly reducing its lifespan. Mould gives the clothing a distinctive smell, like “a damp cellar”.

Washing

Wash the clothing on a wool or delicate cycle. Max 30°C
Use a mild, non-concentrated detergent. We recommend Grangers Performance Wash
Turn the jacket inside out before washing
Close all zips and Velcro fastenings
We recommend washing in a laundry bag to protect the product

IMPORTANT: Please do not use fabric softener or “wash-in products”. “Wash-in products” contain solvents and can dissolve the membrane over time. Wash-in proofing coats both sides of the clothing and prevents moisture from being transported away from the body.

Reproofing
Reproof your clothing every time you wash it. The product must be damp when you reproof it after washing. We recommend reproofing with Grangers Performance Repel Plus Spray.

It is also a good idea to reproof after 4-5 uses in heavy/prolonged rain.

It is better to apply two coats to areas that are prone to wear, such as the shoulders and knees.

We recommend reproofing new products before use. This way, you can be sure the new product is fully treated with reproofing and will last longer. In this case, the clothing should NOT be damp before reproofing.
