<\/p>\n

I have to confess, I\u2019m a reluctant waterproof jacket wearer. I do nearly anything to avoid wearing one, I just don\u2019t like the feeling of having a jacket on to play golf. They always restrict my swing. I much prefer to wear lots of layers, like a base layer, a warm jumper and a vest in the winter leaving my arms free.<\/p>\n

But there comes a point in a round when sometimes you just have to concede defeat and accept that the only way your body is going to stay warm and dry enough to continue in bad weather is to wear some of the best women’s golf rain gear<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

What a delight it was to discover that I actually didn\u2019t mind wearing the Proquip Paige in the rain, similar to how I felt wearing the Under Armour Drive rain jacket<\/a>. It\u2019s, really, really lightweight. I love how soft the material is to touch and this makes it super quiet to swing in. None of that irritating rustling noise that many thicker jackets make. The lightweight material doesn\u2019t bag at all, which means that you can roll it up very neatly to fit inside even the smallest pocket of a golf bag, like a pencil bag you might take on holiday.<\/p>\n

There are internal toggles that allow you to tighten or loosen the fit around the waist along with side adjuster tabs. This really improved the fit in my opinion, especially on putting, where I sometimes find jackets simply get in the way.<\/p>\n

The elasticated cuffs are also really useful for extra adjustability, so you can leave them loose for ease of taking the jacket on and off over your jumper and then tighten them right in to ensure that no rain slips down your inner arm.<\/p>\n

The mesh lining that contributes to making this jacket more breathable is a definite plus. I was certainly not aware of ever feeling too hot during play, even hiking up hilly fairways. In fact, if anything, I was a little on the cool side wearing it. The downside of the material being super lightweight is that it isn\u2019t as thick as others I\u2019ve worn previously, nevertheless it does offer excellent wind protection.<\/p>\n

My favourite feature of the jacket\u2019s design is the addition of a hood. It\u2019s really big to cover your head and hat and it also has side toggles so that you can tighten it to prevent the wind blowing it down. As a result, I\u2019ve now worn this just as much on the side of the football pitch watching my son play for his school team, as I have on the golf course.<\/p>\n

Although the colour choice is limited to navy and black, the addition of bright accent colours on the sides bonnie blue, lime and silver, give a pop of vibrancy to an otherwise dull look, making it just a little more fun. At \u00a3120 it really doesn\u2019t break the bank. You\u2019ll certainly get great value out of adding this jacket to your bag.<\/p>\n
