The best rain gear for golf, according to Tiger Woods – Australian Golf Digest

The best rain gear for golf, according to Tiger Woods – Australian Golf Digest

Gone are the days of sticky raingear billowing and catching in the wind and wet. Launched this week, the Sun Day Red + TaylorMade from Tiger Woods is the “Weather Series,” a specially designed collection of gear to keep you dry and focused on the course. The capsule includes six pieces that have been designed with Woods, who says he’s never met rain gear that offered him the flexibility, comfort and performance that he and other golfers demand.

The collection includes the only golf umbrella you’ll ever need (that comes in three different colors), a weatherproof pant, and four layering pieces for tops: one crew neck, a half-zip, one short-sleeve rain shirt, and a long-sleeve jacket. The attention to detail of the new series stands up to the price point, which runs the gamut of $150 for the umbrella to $550 for the jacket. You can tell a serious golfer is behind the design elements. These pieces are both tailored (goodbye wind-ripping waves of fabric getting in the way of your swing and concentration) but layer-able, made to slide easily on top of your polos or sweaters. They’re lightweight, breathable and packable: Both the rain shirt and jacket can even fold into their own pocket for easy storage and portability.

And this is not your grandpa’s crunchy raingear. These knits are soft and breathy, so definitely not sticky. The cuts use seams minimally (bringing new meaning to the word “seamless” in golf style) which allows for more thorough protection as well as less waste. The silhouette and fabric is also constructed with noise control in mind; it’s built to move quietly with your body as you follow through your swing. It’s extremely quiet, so you can concentrate on your game when you’re under pressure, lining up a tricky putt or breaking free of a hazard.

The pieces make the most of a versatile, restrained color palette. The bold, monochrome raven hue will match your entire pre-existing wardrobe and remain stylish as it’s resilient to trends. Plus, it’ll look great with any pops of Tiger Red to match.
