At this time of year, checking the weather forecast can feel like a lottery
January gets a bad rep as being one of the more miserable times of the year. The festivities have come and gone, various new year’s resolutions are starting to feel a little wobbly, and it’s dark for most of the day. That being said, while it’s often cold and wet, the weather can actually be rather pleasantly changeable.
Sometimes we’ll be blessed with bright sunny days that are always a joy to be spent on the golf course, other times we’ll be needing to wrap up warm with an extra few layers. But heavy rain can often keep the hardiest of golfers indoors.
That being said, the rain always looks worse from the window. There are a lot of positives to playing golf out in the rain, namely that the course is rather free owing to fair weather players cancelling their tee times.
Playing through the rain can feel like an added challenge, and therefore it feels even better when we score well in turbulent weather. It’s also a lovely excuse to blame the bad weather if you’re not playing well on the day too!
Today we want to underline for you how you’ll always be ready for golf whatever the weather thanks to our dependable line of FootJoy golf waterproofs.
Full weather protection
The golf waterproofs that line our shelves in the pro shop are first and foremost fully waterproof. With a waterproof rating of 10,000mm, they’ll keep you dry in heavy rain. While heavy rain can dampen your mood, our clothing will keep you in warm spirits as you make your way around the golf course.
You may think that should you wear multiple layers, it’s inevitable that you’ll feel rather bulky and uncomfortable, not so the case when it comes to the latest offerings from FootJoy. Jackets such as the HydroLite X Waterproof Hoodie have elastic cuff and hem sections that ensure the piece fits comfortably over the wearers clothes while providing a stable fit to their waist and arms.
