Faring The Elements In Golf Because Of Galvin Green Waterproofs

Galvin Green Waterproofs have been on the market since 1990, making it possible for golfers to brave the cold and wet on the course without succumbing to either the weather or the bulkiness of previous clothing options. Surely, golfers in the past protected themselves from the elements, too. But they did so by layering up for warmth, and then wearing a coat over the layers of sweaters for dryness. Heavy and constricting, the choices were nowhere as sleek or streamlined as they are today.

No matter the skill level, most golfers are keenly aware of the importance of flexibility and mobility in the game, and what one wears while playing has a direct effect on his or her ability to flex and move freely. Equally important, when golfing in rain and wind, is keeping warm and dry. It's possible to do both comfortably, to dress non-restrictively while protecting oneself from the elements.

Lightweight fabric is key, as is the ability to stay dry. Walking around a soaking course for several hours in a storm, it's easy to work up a sweat even while getting doused on the outside by the drizzle from above. The Gore Tex fabric used in the creation of the waterproofs collection from Galvin Green's offerings does the trick. It's designed to release the heat and moisture from the inside while repelling the water from the outside.

In an ideal situation, a golfer's attire will keep him or her protected from the elements all over, from head to toe. Starting from the bottom, imagine having slacks that can withstand the splashes and splatters that are bound to occur during a stormy 18 holes. Your legs will benefit from the easy breathing fabric that provides warmth and comfort without absorbing any water.

Up top, a slight rain jacket that's durable enough to protect from a gusting cold wind without constricting the movement of your arms seems ideal. And the added protection against water from the Gore Tex is unbeatable.

Some might argue that style is more important than function, that it doesn't matter how well you do something as long as you look good doing it. Others will debate that the opposite is true, that appearance is far less significant than ability. And there are yet others who would suggest that optimum effectiveness results from a combination of both style and function. In the case of Galvin Green waterproofs for golfers, it could be argued that golfers who feel the confidence and comfort of properly fitting, weather-appropriate attire just might have an advantage to play a better game than others who aren't dressed as well.

Golfers throughout the UK and Northern Europe have access to the comfort and design of Galvin Green Waterproofs. With some luck, golfers in other parts of the world will, too.
