Galvin Green Armstrong Jacket Review

Outerwear · 14 rounds in my bag

7.7/ 10

The short version

Two holes in with the Galvin Green Armstrong Jacket I knew: it blocks the wind without turning me into a bin bag over the ball. I played through steady drizzle for two hours and stayed dry and swinging freely. The catch: the hood is more decorative than useful in real wind.

How it played

Straight into the bag for 14 rounds with no easing-in period. What I keep coming back to is that it blocks the wind without turning me into a bin bag over the ball. Where it bit me: the hood is more decorative than useful in real wind — worth knowing before you spend the money.

How it looks

Quiet fabric and a cut that does not balloon in a breeze. I care less about that than how it feels, but it does not hurt.

What won me over

fully waterproof through a long wet round
it is silent through the swing
the sleeves do not ride up on the backswing

Good to know before you buy

it runs warm on mild days
the price is serious

My verdict

7.7/10 from me. If you play in weather other people cancel in, the Galvin Green Armstrong Jacket earns its spot in the bag. If it runs warm on mild days is a dealbreaker for you, keep looking.
