Review: Sunice Golf Typhoon Waterproof Jacket

Written by  James Cornish on Monday, 14 November 2011
Waterproof golf jackets and trousers are now expected to keep you playing as close to your best as possible. The Sunice Golf Typhoon Waterproof Jacket, which we review here, certainly does that.

Sunice came to golf by way of mountain and skiwear, and that should tell you what you need to know about their credentials for making clothing to survive the elements. That they will make the official golf waterproofs for next year's Ryder Cup and PGA Championships tells you how successfully they have translated their clothing to golf.

The key performance indicator for a golf waterproof is in the name, but more on that later. With an ever-growing list of great products that keep you dry, it is impact on performance that sets the best golf waterproofs apart, and the Sunice Typhoon Waterproof Jacket really is one of the very best.

The jacket is incredibly light, made of breathable materials that keep you comfy without weighing you down. The jacket remains comfortable at all stages of your swing and, something that we really loved, is very quiet when you move and therefore not distracting. The jacket has a slim look, and is adjustable around the waist and cuffs to make sure it is a snug fit.

We would be pretty shocked if this jacket didn't keep us dry, but that doesn't mean we weren't impressed with how it managed it. The storm flap in front of the main zip, the laser-cut pockets with waterproof zips, and the collar are all designed brilliantly and exude a sense that these waterproofs have been made intelligently, with an eye on absolute reliability – the three-year guarantee doesn't do any harm either.

Little touches like the soft chin guard, the sleeve design that channels water away from the hands and a chamois leather in the right-hand pocket - allowing you to clean your ball inside your pocket, all add to the quality feel of this excellent waterproof golf jacket. Add to that the range of different designs, and the contemporary slim styling, and these are possibly the best looking golf jackets we have clapped eyes on. At a price that all but the most occasional players can justify, the Sunice Golf Waterproof Jacket comes highly recommended.
