Adverse weather is an unfortunate reality of golfing; it’s just inevitable that at some point, you’re going to get caught in the rain and wind (likely during the round of your life or while visiting a once-in-a-lifetime location).

For 2023, Galvin Green has released its most all-encompassing rainwear line-up yet to help overcome the increasingly unpredictable weather patterns faced during a round of golf.

The latest fully waterproof range offers a first-class jacket and pant pairing in the uncompromising GORE-TEX stretch with C-KNIT backer fabric; ten designs crafted using the lightweight GORE-TEX Paclite technology; and five styles with mesh lining for added warmth. A total of eight functional models incorporate stretch fabric for added flexibility during the golf swing.

Product Manager Sofia Ask Klason said:

“Utilising the best-performing waterproof membrane on the market in the most fit-for-purpose rain wear pieces is testament to our never compromise approach to product design.With our extensive offering using a number of different fabric technologies, serious golfers have a stellar choice of responsibly sourced designs that meet the requirements faced when playing in increasingly unpredictable and demanding conditions out on the golf course.”

A decade ago, in 2013, the first Galvin Green GORE-TEX jackets and pants using bluesign-approved eco-friendly fabric were added to the range. All waterproof garments in the latest line continue to use these sustainable materials that maximize a golfer’s performance; while, at the same time, seek to minimize social and environmental impact.

Leading the range is the striking new ALISTER jacket—offering the most premium performance-enhancing and reliable waterproof features on the market. The full-zip model is crafted using GORETEX stretch with C-KNIT backer fabric and features a smooth ‘slide and glide’ interior and Superstretch inserts across the back and elbows for unrivaled freedom of movement in the swing. The addition of reinforced Techsteel material at the shoulders delivers greater durability without compromising movement during the swing. It also features water-repellent zippers, front pockets, and a chest and collar width for extra comfort and protection in adverse weather conditions.

The matching ALPHA superstretch waterproof trousers with C-KNIT backer are available in as many as 15 different size options across waist and leg lengths. The pant includes an elasticated waist and drawstring for the perfect fit; adjustable leg width; front pockets with fleece lining; a zipper fly opening and water-repellent zippers; plus an abrasion-resistant fabric on the leg hem.

Suited to golfers with limited space in their golf bag, the award-winning ARMSTRONG men’s jacket in GORE-TEX Paclite fabric with enhanced stretch capabilities offers great flexibility during a round of golf. The tri-blend design weighs in at just 300 grams (in size medium) and features shaped sleeves to allow for a full range of movement in the golf swing, an adjustable chest width, and front pockets for increased comfort.

It is available in as many as seven striking colorways and is designed to pair with the matching ARTHUR Paclite pants.

The sporty ALBERT men’s jacket is a great option for those golfers seeking a fully waterproof style that stands up to the test on cold, wet days. The lightweight mesh lining delivers an added warming effect by trapping warm air between the body and clothing pieces, while the use of stretch fabric in the design ensures golfers can continue to swing comfortably regardless of the weather. New colorways include White/Navy/Orange and Navy/White/Blue combinations.

Another popular model is the ARLIE jacket which can be paired up with layers underneath to ensure optimal performance in rain, wind, and cold. It is available in three colors and up to 5XL in size. Complimenting the two men’s lined jackets are the breathable ANDY pants with an elasticated waist and drawstring ensuring an optimal fit, plus strategically positioned abrasion-resistant fabric at the leg hem.
