It's far more than that

During the winter, we hardly leave home without looking out the window and checking the weather forecast first.

Getting caught in the cold rain when you nip down the shops can really dampen your mood, let alone when you’re midway through your round on the golf course.

However, poor weather is one of those things we’ve simply got to embrace in life, and let’s face it, it often looks much worse from the window. Playing through the rain and pulling off some great shots despite the harder conditions can feel incredibly rewarding.

It goes without saying that you need to be wearing clothing that’s up to the task of protecting you when you’re outdoors among the turbulent weather. So, what do you go for? Do you go for the standard raincoat you can find in any high street shop, or a quality waterproof purposefully built for golf?

In the pro shop, we stock stretchy waterproof golf jackets from Sunderland of Scotland in a variety of sizes for your convenience. These jackets are simply fantastic, but why should you choose a golf waterproof from Sunderland of Scotland over any other brand?

Sunderland is renowned for their durable outerwear, and the brand’s history is steeped in a rich heritage. Founded in 1911, Sunderland of Scotland has been making premium golf apparel for over a century. A brand native of the turbulent Scottish weather, Sunderland knows the importance of keeping dry when playing in wet weather conditions.

Throughout the 20th century, the brand has been represented by some of the best players in the game, including Greg Norman, Nick Faldo, and Seve Ballesteros. Pairing with another quality golf apparel brand in 2009, Glenmuir became the official European distributer of Sunderland products.

Having innovated and refined their craft over the decades, Sunderland of Scotland continues to create groundbreaking golf waterproofs that the best players in the world trust to help them achieve success on the course.

One such Sunderland golf waterproof you’ll no doubt find as comforting as it is practical is the Whisperdry Pro-Lite Waterproof Jacket. Here’s why their latest outerwear is perfect for use on the golf course…

 

The Sunderland of Scotland Whisperdry Pro-Lite Waterproof Jacket

The Whisperdry Pro-Lite Jacket is made from a fully waterproof polyester material that moves with your body whether you’re walking along or swinging your golf clubs.

This piece features 4-way stretch material, this component ensures that the fabric can effectively be pulled in any direction to ensure you don’t feel any restriction when you’re turning sharply through your golf swing.

You may well think that outerwear and protective clothing must be broad and bulky, but that simply isn’t the case with this jacket. The Whisperdry Pro-Lite is lightweight and breathable, helping you feel nimble and ready for action from tee to green.

What really separates this from your everyday rain jacket is the sheer quality of the product’s design. Sunderland has constructed this jacket to include ergonomically sealed seams, meaning not only are the seams watertight so no moisture seeps through, but they’re shaped to give you excellent, lasting mobility in each section of your torso.

The golf waterproof also has an inner storm flap and chin guard to protect your face and neck from the elements, and the anti-snag velcro bonded cuffs ensure a perfect fit each time you slip the jacket on.
