Cool Climate

Given that it will rain, on average, 3 days a week and the average golfer will play at least one round of golf a week, you can reasonably assume that youre going to be spending some time playing in the wet, or the wind, or the cold. Or all three. So you need rain gear thats up to the challenge.

But if you forget about the terms waterproof, windproof, breathable for just a moment theres one other basic criteria that all rain gear should fulfil: it has to be comfortable.

Your rain gear can be made of the fanciest techno-fabric on the market, but if all youre thinking about is how its chafing under the arms, or its too tight across the back, how it rustles when you walk and screams when you swing, then you can be guaranteed that your mind is not where it should be: on your game.

And heres where outerwear manufacturers have really excelled. Not only have they created waterproof fabrics that breathe like a second skin they move like a second skin as well.

And not only is the fabric itself supple enough to accommodate a golfers every move, but thankfully someone, somewhere has put a lot of thought into the actual construction or design of modern golf wet-wear.

As a result, when shopping for your ideal rain suit youll come across all sorts of nifty features like articulated knees to aid movement of your legs, stretch mesh lining for extra flexibility, and panels of super-stretch waterproof fabric across the back to help your swing flow without restriction.

Lets face it: the best kind of wet weather wear is the kind that you can almost forget you are wearing. That way you can focus on whats really important instead of worrying about the weather or feeling that you have to rush your shots to finish your round before the heavens open.
