GEOFF ANDERSON WS LIGHT GREEN XXL

Geoff Anderson WS Light Green is a premium short-cut wading jacket engineered by Geoff Anderson to deliver absolute waterproof performance, breathability, and structural durability in an ultra-lightweight shell. Designed specifically to grant total freedom of movement during casting and wading maneuvers, this technical jacket achieves a 20% weight reduction compared to traditional Geoff Anderson wading shells without sacrificing ruggedness or stormproof protection.

The outer shell combines field-tested Taslan Polyamide fabric with Geoff Anderson's System Fabric membrane, yielding a 100% waterproof and highly breathable barrier against heavy rain, sea spray, and howling winds. To achieve this light footprint, Geoff Anderson incorporated smart fabric mapping—utilizing streamlined materials on non-critical zones like the collar, hood, and pocket liners, while eliminating unnecessary material overlaps. Built with a 100% saltwater-resistant design, the jacket features next-generation YKK® AquaGuard® zippers, Hypalon cuffs with Velcro® closures, a soft Rentex® fleece-lined collar, multiple attachment D-rings, and an expansive pocket layout complete with a drained rear game pocket and integrated Hypalon tool holders.
