When exploring a new golf apparel collection, such as the 2025 Galvin Green Spring Collection, I find it essential to delve into the advanced technical fabrics utilized in developing these products.
Understanding the materials can significantly enhance our appreciation of the collection’s quality and performance features.
The latest range of DRYVR™ rain gear builds upon a strong performance foundation, featuring 18 fully waterproof jackets, hoodies, and pants designed for both men and women golfers.
The innovative lightweight Pertex® Shield technology complements the already established Pertex® Shield Stretch fabric, GORE-TEX garments with lining, and various GORE-TEX Paclite® styles.

This collection enhances functionality and features eye-catching color combinations like Moonlight Blue and Fresh Green, which stand out in the line-up.
When comparing Gore-Tex Pro and Pertex, it’s clear that Gore-Tex Pro excels in both waterproofing and breathability. On the other hand, Pertex offers superior breathability compared to regular non-Pro Gore-Tex.
This makes Pertex a preferable choice for slightly lighter rain conditions, which are not as frequent, particularly when temperatures are warmer or when engaging in more active pursuits.
At the forefront of the men’s DRYVR™ rainwear collection are the AMES full-zip and ADAM half-zip jackets, designed with Pertex® Shield Stretch fabric.
This innovative 100% waterproof three-layer fabric offers exceptional stretch, ensuring total freedom of movement and superior comfort against the skin.

The ‘slide & glide’ interior minimizes friction with any layers worn underneath, enhancing overall wearability.
Additionally, these jackets are constructed from ISO-tested and PFC-free materials, making them an environmentally responsible choice.
Both jackets are designed with shaped sleeves that facilitate easy movement, along with chest tabs and a strategically repositioned side seam to enhance comfort and ensure an ideal fit.
The striking color combinations of Navy/Moonlight and Black/Fresh Green not only provide a refreshing aesthetic but also create a visually appealing look that is sure to draw attention.
The INSULA™ mid-layer range, recognized for its excellence, is thoughtfully designed using bluesign® approved materials.
These garments are crafted from recycled plastic bottles, reflecting the brand’s commitment to reducing social and environmental impact, as highlighted in their detailed Sustainability Review.
