Rain Gear

[neophyte]

I am thinking about buying a Galvin Green jacket at http://www.premiumgolf.co.uk/golf-ga...yerGoreTex.htm They have four jackets, Alfred, Argus, Austin, & Abraham.

Does anything have any experience with Galvin Green gore tex. and could advise me. So far I want something with a full zipper, easy to play in, and is warmer in cold, windy, rainy weather. Are they easy to care for? And I would also like to get pants. Do sizes run the same as in the US I use XL. Are they better than Zero Restriction and Dry joys.

Also is there any problems with using a credit card from USA to buy in the UK.

The Adidas ClimaProof Storm 3 way reversible jacket looks pretty good.

Galvin Green Gore Tex is brilliant. I play in terrible weather in Ireland and it's always in the bag, the trousers are especially great - I wear them instead of trousers in the summer if it's wet, and over trousers in the winter for warmth and the high possibility of getting wet. If you want to splash out on good gear, it's the best you can get in this country.

I just bought a Sun Ice Goretex jacket and am really happy with it. It wasn't cheap, but it has a lifetime warranty on it so I figure it is worth the money.

Got the Hurricane Pac-Lite model.

Not sure what type of raingear to suggest...never really had a set.....maybe this year????

I can tell you that you are smart for wanting some quality gear as I lived in eastern NC for 25+ years. Rain is a regular occurance....unlike down here.

Zero Restriction is my first choice.

I would get some Gore Tex fishing gear. Breathes really well and is waterproof.
