Which are the best golf waterproof jackets 2018?
If you’re a serious golfer and like to keep playing through the winter then this is an essential piece of kit.
And whether performance or style is your key consideration we’ve got you covered in the list below.
Best golf waterproof jackets 2018: Galvin Green Al
SRP: £369
The market leaders have been adding new technology and style over the years to “stay ahead” of the competition, as they like to put it.
What’s impressive about the Al jacket is how light and smooth it feels – you barely notice you have it on.
It’s quite a minimal shell with only a chest pocket but has plenty of adjustability.
This jacket is designed for performance above all else and it absolutely hits that brief.
Best golf waterproof jackets 2018: FootJoy DryJoys Tour LTS
SRP: £250
This jacket has been cleverly designed to offer stretch in the right places without adding any unwanted weight.
I found this jacket adds a bit of extra warmth compared to some of the lighter shell-like jackets which is very welcome through the winter months.
It doesn’t quite repel water in the same impressive way as other Gore-Tex models but it keeps you 100% dry and doesn’t restrict your swing in any way.
Best golf waterproof jackets 2018: Ping Zero Gravity Tour half-zip
SRP: £180
An essential piece of kit to store in the golf bag as it weighs hardly anything and can be folded away to the size of a scorecard.
It actually packs away into its own pocket.
Very impressive waterproof protection and feels very well-fitted with no excess material.
Best golf waterproof jackets 2018: Under Armour Gore-Tex Paclite full-zip
SRP: £200
Under Armour have invested heavily in Gore-Tex technology with both their shoes and clothing.
The brand are continually innovating and creating styles which have a broad appeal.
You’ll really struggle to find a Gore-Tex waterproof jacket at this price point.
Best golf waterproof jackets 2018: Adidas Climaproof
SRP: £129.95
What Adidas say:
This golf jacket is built with seam-sealed protection from the rain, wind and snow. Made of smooth twill fabric, it features adjustable hook-and-loop cuffs to help keep the elements out. Back vents provide targeted ventilation throughout your round.
More information can be found on the Adidas website.
Best golf waterproof jackets 2018: Puma Storm
Best golf waterproof jackets
SRP: £150
What we always find with Puma golf clothing is that the price is very reasonable yet there’s no compromise on tech or style.
This jacket will do a job away from the golf course too which is a nice added bonus.
What Puma say:
The Storm jacket offers breathable and 10,000mm waterproof protection against all conditions to keep you dry and comfortable out on the course.
More information can be found on the Puma website.
Best golf waterproof jackets 2018: Kjus Pro 3L
Best golf waterproof jackets
SRP: £349
I have been very impressed with this jacket. It feels highly premium and very well fitted.
It’s super stretchy which means it won’t restrict your swing and it has a very stylish and fashionable look.
I’ve worn this jacket in some pretty harsh rain and can vouch for the waterproof protection.
This is a brand which we’ve seen on tour with the likes of Charl Schwartzel and Zach Johnson putting them in play.
I’d expect to see much more of them in future.
What Kjus say:
A waterproof golf jacket so light, so stretchable, so unbelievably comfortable that you’ll forget you’re wearing it. With the Pro 3L, golf rain gear is no longer something you have to wear – but something you want to wear.
