Why Wear Galvin Green?

Galvin Green is a leading manufacturer of Golf clothing. They offer a full range of clothing for all weather elements. The clothing range is highly fashionable but at the same time highly practical in that it is specifically designed to function in unison with the golf swing.

Galvin Green's idea is a multi-layer concept whereby you can mix and match the items of clothing to cover all the elements can throw at you, whether it be warm, cold, windy or raining.

To get the most out of your golf garments, and your game, it is important to dress right - from the inside out. The key to comfort is layering, breathability and moisture transportation. Since the different layers work intimately together, thermoregulation is all about using the right materials in the right combination. This is what the Multi-Layer Concept is all about.

In this document I'll be concentrating on the Galvin Green range that keeps you dry in rainy conditions.
