Galvin Green Golf Clothing for all weather that never compromises, well that’s what Galvin Green claims. Galvin Green waterproofs use Gore-Tex which is the best way to make a waterproof breathable without losing any of its waterproofing qualities. When playing golf it is very important that the golfer feels free to swing and move without the clothing getting in the way. Galvin Green waterproofs feature stretch sections that allow for full range of movement, when compared to other waterproofs the Galvin Green defiantly do feel like you could swing with no problems. The Galvin Green range feature other waterproof garments that are half the weight of normal Gore-Tex garments which might not be as warm as some but when it comes to range of movement they are in a class of their own.

Galvin Green are a Swedish Company that never compromise on the quality of their waterproofs and clothing and in a very short time are the most sort after golf clothing company both for waterproofs and clothing in Europe. They have a reputation for quality, design and style. Their designs are all about making it as comfortable as possible for the golfer regardless of the weather and temperature they are playing in and the clothing can easily be worn on and off the course. Galvin Green use a variety of material in the waterproofs and clothing and we have tried to explain their concepts in more depth to help our customer gain a greater understanding of their technology.

 Galvin Green Overall Clothing Philosophy

The concept that Galvin Green employs is one of a multi-layer concept.   Each layer of clothing is designed specifically for the golfer, the condition of play and temperatures that are played in. Each layer uses different technology that performs perfectly on their own and more importantly together leaving you to concentrate on your game. Any golfer will tell you they do not want to be restricted when they swing, either too hot or cold on the course and wet from the outside or the inside.   Galvin Green focus’s their technology around these concepts developing each garment to suit the conditions. The technology start with Gore-tex moving to Paclite, Windstopper, Insula, CoolMax and SkinTight and we at 4golfonline will try and give you a thorough resource enabling you to choose effectively the required garment from our online store.

 Galvin Green Waterproofs Gore-Tex Technology

The waterproof jackets and trousers from Galvin Green use a Gore-tex ® material, which is made from a micro-porous made from expanded (PTFE) Polytetraflourethylene and designed to be completely waterproof with breathable qualities.   Gore the manufacturer offer a lifetime guarantee on their material, which shows the level of confidence in their material and manufacturing processes.   It’s not only Golf that benefit from the Gore-tex material.

 Galvin Green waterproof garments made in Goretex® fabric are specially developed for the game of golf, and have a lifetime waterproof guarantee, so confident are Gore in their fabric and in the manufacturing methods they can offer these assurances in any garment that uses their material. The waterproof material utilized in the Galvin Green Waterproofs not only benefit the golfer in term of staying dry on the outside the technology also allows excess heat and moisture to pass through the material to keep dry and comfortable on the inside. One of the most important pieces of technology that Galvin Green employ in their garments is the use of a product called Durable Water Repellent otherwise known as DWR.   This is added to the outer layer of the Galvin Green Waterproofs and in fact it penetrates the fabric resulting in a beading of any water landing on the outer surface.   Similar to the application used in heavy waxing on cars causing water to bead and run off. Many other waterproofs on the market do not have these properties allowing the outer material to collect the water and become soaked and heavy making natural play much more difficult and uncomfortable. Any golfer will tell you that it is important to stay dry and certainly Gore-Tex is a must have material to be wearing when it is raining. However as mentioned before the wind proof properties and the light flexibility of the Galvin Green waterproofs coupled with the run off technology in the outer garment make the experience of playing in the rain more bearable. Galvin Green Waterproofs with Gore-Tex material are very durable, machine washable and easy to care for.   They perform best when they are clean so they should be washed frequentley.

Galvin Green Gore-tex PacLite Technology

Galvin Green PacLite Gore-tex are the lightest and most breathable waterproof material ever made which is half of the weight of the conventional Gore-tex fabric.   The material also packs down so easily to fit in small spaces and ideal for those golfers that carry their bags. Due the properties of the Gore-tex PacLite material there is no need for an internal lining as it is abrasion proofed and it comfortable to the touch. It also is guaranteed waterproof and breathable for an unsurpassed comfort during play. Goretex PacLite® guarantee is a lifetime one and Gore offer this with 100% confidence.

Galvin Green Windstopper Technology

Windstopper ® as you would imagine stops the wind penetration through to the skin, it also has breathable qualities concentrating on keeping you warm and comfortable on those cool chilly days on the course. Windstopper material is made from a patented micro-porous membrane manufactured from expanded Polytetraflourethylene otherwise know as PTFE which is laminated with a fleece or used as a lining. As with all of the Galvin Green clothing the focus is to give the golfer protection and comfort during their game with the wind and its chill factor the main area that Galvin Green have concentrated on in the Windstopper garments. The breathable quality should not be overlooked either and is an important feature in the Windstopper range of garments adding to the comfort. The Windstopper product almost feel you are wearing nothing at all and are such a pleasure to wear.

 Galvin Green Insula Technology

Galvin Green have a great advantage based on their geographical location in Sweden and the Insula technology used in their garments have been tried and tested in changing temperatures similar to the experience one would get whilst Skiing.   When you first start Skiing you are faced with cold conditions, then after a short period of time you will build up a warm body temperature. Whilst taking a break you stop and the body cools and finally going back to your hotel to very warm enviroment. The Insula technology helps to keep your body temperature constant. Many fleece products are unable to cope with such a variety of temperatures and will either keep you warm but not cool. Galvin Green Insula garments fleece copes perfectly with such a wide variety of conditions and I can confirm that from experience. The fleece itself is very warm and windproof keeping you warm even in the bitterest of conditions.   The breathable properties allow all moisture to be taken away from the body especially when taking exercise. It’s also fantastic to wear and is the lightest fleece I have worn to a point it’s the first piece of clothing I reach for, for every day use, not just for golf. The Insula fabric has a new weave technology the volume of the fabric can be increased by up to 80%.   The result is that the air molecules are trapped in the fibers similar to the effect that a wet suit has. There is no need to wear several layers to offer the same insulation. This property allows Galvin Green to make light-weight material rather than bulky without loosing any of the warmth and can be worn with some of the Galvin Green garments or on its own next to the skin. A great every day garment on and off the course, which we at 4golfonline highly recommend.

Galvin Green CoolMax Technology

Designed to keep you cool and dry.   The CoolMax technology from Galvin Green has a very high breathable property, which transports any moisture away from the skin to the outer layer keeping you cool and dry. A perfect choice for high temperatures and humidity keeping you comfortable during play allowing you to focus on your game. The technology incorporates a four-channel technology, which encourages fast evaporation caused from perspiration.   The large spaces between the filaments in the fabric also provide the garments to breathe with ease. The fabric is used in many garments in many sports due to its unique properties of keeping you cool and dry.   From a performance stand point your body’s energy and concentration can be channelled towards the task at hand rather temperature control in your body. As a direct comparison cotton absorbs approximately 14% more perspiration than CoolMax and this is an important feature of the material.   The unique fiber in CoolMax is designed to breathe even if its contacts moisture where cotton expands and retains moisture, which is very uncomfortable for the person wearing the clothing as it becomes heavy and sticky not a pleasant feeling to have. The Coolmax has other benefits to.   Its very hard wearing, will not shrink and will always keep its shape compared with cotton.   I have found that the fabric washes so well it hardly needs an iron taking to it. My wife actively encourages to always wear CoolMax and for shear comfort and style the Galvin Green Coolmax range in my opinion could not be better.

Galvin Green SkinTight Technology

SkinTight Compression Technology is new from Galvin Green you would have never thought that an undergarment could give you so much benefit not only in comfort but in performance as well. The list is almost endless, the SkinTight technology helps with enhanced body circulation, increased muscle stamina, moisture management, breathe ability, thermo regulation, anti-bacterial properties, Ffat seam construction and easy care. The Galvin Green SkinTight garments are a firm fit to the body, we would have all seen these garments being used by performance athletes such as track and field, football players, rugby players, cyclists and the list goes on. Much research has been done in a wide range of sport that now have incorporated this clothing technology, as the standard to aid body circulation.   With Galvin Green it has now come to golf to help everyone improve the circulation aiding performance stamina and concentration. The fabric is very breathable and moisture is taken away from the body. Both of the above help to regulate your body’s temperature and blood flow even if your are cold one minute then warm the next, which would usually be a difficult thing to handle. Galvin Green intelligent polyamide yarns are used in the manufacture of Galvin Green SkinTight under garments. The anti-bacterial properties help to keep the bodies skin bacterial level in its natural state rather than other type garments that try to eliminate all bacteria on the body.   This would usually cause the skin to get irritated in a similar way to that of having too many bacteria on the skin leaving rashed areas and even sore skin.

Day to day our bacteria level should remain constant as our body is used to that level and it’s an important feature of the Galvin Green under garments that help the neutrality and natural state of your body. The Galvin Green Under Garments are designed to be worn with the CoolMax and other Galvin
Green Garments for ultimate comfort and performance.
