-Premium brand unveils new rainwear garments using PFAS-free lined GORE-TEX fabric-
Premium brand Galvin Green has hit the market with its latest high-performance golf apparel collection featuring a PFAS-free lined waterproof GORE-TEX fabric with innovative ePE membrane. This cutting-edge technology further enhances the brand’s award-winning multi-material DRYVR™ rainwear collection, setting a new benchmark in technical excellence and sustainability.
Representing the next generation of sustainable waterproof technology, this bluesign®-approved fabric is made from recycled polyester and incorporates GORE-TEX ePE in – two-layer construction, complemented by a lightweight mesh lining delivering exceptional comfort and thermal insulation with minimal restriction. At the same time, the responsibly developed PFAS-free treatment effectively repels water droplets, ensuring superior rain protection while reducing environmental impact and providing golfers with dependable performance and long-term wearability.
Further enhancing the brand’s market leading sustainability credentials as outlined in the Sustainability Review, the fabric is 100% waterproof, windproof, and extremely breathable, and is used on four new long-lasting rainwear garments. These include the ASTON jacket and ARON pant for men, and AVA jacket and APRIL pant for women.
“We’re thrilled to have pioneered another ground-breaking innovation in the golf waterproof sector and continue to push the boundaries of what is achievable in sustainable golf apparel,” said Product Manager Sofia Ask-Klason. “Working closely with GORE-TEX and applying our rigorous testing, we’ve ensured this next generation waterproof technology performs to our best-in-class standards and it’s a great addition to the multi-layer DRYVR™ rainwear line that keeps serious golfers protected when the rain sets in wherever they are playing around the globe.”
Available in sizes up to 5XL, the men’s DRYVR™ waterproof line-up comprises six high performance jackets and two pants. Leading the way is the ASTON full-zip jacket, available in solid Navy and Black, which features shaped sleeves for unrestricted movement; adjustable cuffs and an elasticated drawstring at the hem to deliver a comfortable fit; and front pockets and an inner pocket to keep belongings dry.
The matching ARON pant, available in up to 13 different waist and leg lengths, incorporates the elasticated waist and drawstring for the perfect fit. Carefully considered features like a split inseam and extra abrasion resistant fabric around the leg hem ensures the pant withstands the test of time. It also comes in Navy and Black, making it an ideal option to pair up with a range of jacket styles.
Launched last year, the multi award-winning AMES jacket with Pertex® Shield Stretch technology offers golfers unrivaled freedom of movement during the swing and is now available in two new standout colors, Royal Blue/Black and White/Black.
At the same time, Galvin Green has added the smart LENNON padded jacket and vest to its versatile and INTERFACE-1™ range. Available in Black/White/Royal Blue and Navy, these garments are made from recycled polyester with a PET membrane for impressive breathability and top-level warmth via the recycled polyester Thermore® padding. Both styles come with an eye-catching stripe panel to the back of the garment.
Add to that the eye-catching DEAN half-zip mid layer for men, which provides stretchy comfort and comes with contrast paneling to deliver classic Galvin Green styling and a supremely bold appearance. Other standout pieces across the men’s range include the DALTON sweater with recycled polyester Thermore® padding for top-level warmth in a striking silhouette; on-trend MILES VENTIL8™ PLUS shirt embodies a super modern design with tailored collar and solid cuffs in up to five bold color options; and the athletic MONTE style with a fitted look with contrasting panels in a stellar Navy/Golf Green option.
Headlining Galvin Green’s women’s offering is the DRYVR™ collection with three waterproof jackets and two pant options in a range of colors and sizes up to XXL. The new AVA jacket and APRIL pant combine for the ultimate waterproof GORE-TEX ePE rain suit with a lightweight mesh lining the full-zip jacket (available in Black and Navy) featuring contrasting zip and piping, shaped sleeves, adjustable cuffs and an elasticated drawstring at the hem, and an inner and two front pockets to keep belongings dry. The pant comes in waist sizes from XS to XXL, plus short and standard leg lengths to guarantee the perfect fit.
The elegant LYDIA full-zip INTERFACE-1™ jacket in Sand and Navy spearheads the windproof and water-repellent styles, offering weightless comfort. Distinguishing the sustainable style is a bluesign® approved stretch fabric made from recycled polyester; two-way front zipper for the optimal fit; and recycled polyester Thermore® padding for incredible warmth on chilly days. The chic LUNA vest has many of the same features in a versatile sleeveless design that can be worn with several outfits both on and off the course.
Additionally, the avant-garde DIXIE full-zip sweater is a standout layering garment in the eco-generation INSULA™ range for women, providing soft, stretchy comfort for colder days and a refreshing White/Sand colorway expected to be a standout combination for women golfers this season. Among the leading VENTIL8™ PLUS shirts is the dazzling MARLENE featuring a stylish houndstooth pattern that elevates any outfit choice.
