Layering & warmth

Autumn is such an exciting time of year. Plus, once every two years, it's twice as good, as we have the greatest golf tournament in the world to look forward to; The Solheim Cup.

We've seen all sorts of golf played out so far this year on the LPGA Tour. Will Suzann Pettersen's European squad be able to claim the title and extend Europe being in possession of the cup for another two years? Or will Stacy Lewis' troop of Americans be taking it home with them?

If watching the greatest players in the world take each other in Spain will have you itching for some golf yourself, you'll need to be prepared for the changing conditions as the autumn seasons gets underway.

Layering up

Now that we’re midway through September, you may well have your thoughts on the coming colder winter months. Winter golf is a different animal altogether when compared to playing in the height of summer, so it’s important you’re prepared and equipped with the appropriate clothing.

One of the reasons the interim period between the warmer and colder seasons can be so difficult to anticipate is climate. We’ve all been there where we’ve been caught in the rain without a proper waterproof on, or stepped out onto the course on a freezing day without a decently insulating mid-layer. Not being prepared for the weather really disrupts our concentration and stops us from enjoying our golf.

Rather than sticking on any old jacket, winter golf clothing is specifically designed to keep you warm and focused when out on the course. The materials used are stretchy and comfy to give you that desirable combination of freedom of movement to swing your clubs freely and a warm snug core.

We’re so excited to announce that we now have the latest winter golf clothing from Under Armour lining the shelves of our pro shop! You can be among the first to try on one of these stunning pieces.

Please read on as we give you a rundown of some of the fantastic mid-layers that are guaranteed to keep you cozy this winter.

The Storm Revo Vest

As the first signs of seasonal cold start to set in over the autumn period, you’ll need to start layering up to stay content when you’re out on the golf course. The Storm Revo Vest is a stylish garment, and warms your core while keeping your arms free to swing your golf clubs totally unrestricted. The vest features an eye-catching square design on the padding, and contrasting colours between that on the torso and that on the full-length zip.

The Storm Sweaterfleece

If you prefer to wear subtle, uncomplicated clothing, the Storm Sweaterfleece will have you smiling from tee to green. As the name suggests, this piece gives you all the comfort of a fleece with the durability of a sweater. The piece features a solid single colour covering the torso and sleeves with a contrasting colour lining on the quarter-zip and collar. This is a fantastic mid-layer to wear to the course all winter long.

The Storm Mid-layer

If you’re looking for a little more colour in your winter-wear, you’ll be quite smitten with the Storm Mid-layer. Like many of Under Armour’s autumn releases this year, this piece features two colour tones, a block colour on the torso and collar, and a striped pattern running down the sleeves. This lovely mid-layer is available in four colourways, including the navy and blue as pictured above.

The Storm Revo Jacket

You’ll be glad to be wearing this jacket on those rounds when the wind is proving to be rather biting. The Storm Revo Jacket is a single neutral colour and has some slight highlighting on the lining of the collar. The jacket has a full-length zip that makes it very simple to wear and remove, and the stretchy polyester material will give you the energy to keep going throughout your game of golf.

Under Armour makes the highest quality golf clothing on the market. If you’re on the lookout for a new mid-layer this autumn and you’re unsure of which jacket is the one for you, we’d be more than happy to show you our selection of winter golf clothing in the pro shop.
