It is ideal for rowers who need freedom of movement at the oars and anglers casting large streamers who require unrestricted rotation. Use it as a standalone outer layer during cool, breezy mornings or as a mid-layer insulator under a rain shell during unexpected storms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003especialized Storage\u003c\/strong\u003e – A vertical zippered chest pocket offers secure storage specifically sized for fly boxes, while two zippered handwarmer pockets provide immediate relief for frozen fingers between casts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeather Defense\u003c\/strong\u003e – The softshell exterior features water-shedding properties to deflect boat spray and light rain, ensuring the interior insulation remains dry even in damp conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSun Protection\u003c\/strong\u003e – Built with UPF 50 ratings, the fabric effectively blocks harmful UV rays, offering necessary protection during long exposures on open water.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy We Like It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe prefer this vest over standard fleece alternatives because the woven face fabric offers significantly better wind resistance and durability against snagging. Unlike traditional insulation that can soak up water like a sponge, the Rogue sheds moisture effectively, making it a practical choice for unpredictable aquatic environments. The balance of a rugged exterior with a plush interior creates a garment that handles the abrasion of wader straps and backpacks while keeping your core insulated against biting river breezes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFabric \/ Material Composition\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe vest is constructed from a 100 percent polyester woven face bonded to a soft, brushed fleece interior. The exterior surface is treated with a DWR water-repellent finish that causes water to bead and roll off upon contact. This dual-sided fabric design ensures maximum abrasion resistance on the outside while trapping heat efficiently against the body on the inside.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Simms","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50066935742697,"sku":"Simms-Mens-Rogue-Fleece-Vest","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0749\/1846\/1673\/files\/simms-clothing-simms-men-s-rogue-fleece-vest-1218004063.jpg?v=1769206418","url":"https:\/\/www.tridentflyfishing.com\/products\/simms-mens-rogue-fleece-vest","provider":"Trident Fly Fishing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
