However that does also make it versatile so that’s a subjective point. The only negatives for me were the pockets were a touch small, and the design could probably be described as a bit bland. Water beaded off excellently thanks to the seam-sealed construction and I loved all the other adjustable features too including the inner storm flap, chin guard and cord-adjusting high neck, and the Velcro adjusters at the cuffs and waist.

There are three layers including a hydrophilic membrane which allows moisture to escape. It’s all-new construction is windproof, waterproof and exceptionally breathable, with the give in the material adding to the comfort and ease of movement. Having played golf for 45 years, I could immediately see that the new Rain Walker jacket is a step up yet again.
