FAQs

What does the 20,000 mm / 15,000 g/sqm rating mean?

The 20,000 mm rating indicates the waterproof level, meaning it can withstand 20,000 mm of water pressure before leaking. The 15,000 g/sqm rating refers to breathability, indicating grams of water vapor that can pass through a square meter of fabric in 24 hours.

How does the DrySeal Technology collar work?

It features an inner adjustable cinch cord to create a snug fit around the neck, preventing water ingress. The outer collar layer includes subtle drainage holes to direct any water away from running down your back.

Can I wear layers underneath this jacket?

Yes, the jacket is designed to be worn over mid-layers. The 4-way stretch fabric ensures that movement is not restricted, even with additional clothing underneath.

What is the benefit of the underarm zip venting?

The underarm zips allow you to manually increase ventilation, releasing heat and moisture buildup during more strenuous activity or warmer periods within a cold-weather round, helping to regulate your body temperature.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain or just light drizzle?

This jacket is designed for storm-proven performance and is highly effective in heavy rain due to its advanced waterproof technology and seam-sealed construction.

How long is the waterproof guarantee?

The FootJoy Hydrotour Waterproof Golf Rain Jacket comes with a 3 Year Waterproof Guarantee.

Troubleshooting

Water is not beading on the jacket's surface.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may need to be reactivated or reapplied. Try tumble drying on low heat, or apply a DWR treatment following product instructions.

Feeling damp or clammy inside the jacket.

Ensure the underarm vents are open if needed. If the issue persists, wash the jacket to clear any potential membrane blockage from sweat or residue.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or salt residue. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper teeth.

  • Durable construction with a significant waterproof guarantee.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a ready-to-wear garment. No assembly or setup is required. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal fit and performance.

Compatibility: Designed primarily for golf, its versatility makes it suitable for other outdoor activities requiring weather protection, such as hiking, cycling, or sailing.

Care Instructions: To maintain the jacket's waterproof and breathable properties, follow these guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold with a small amount of liquid detergent. Do NOT use powder detergent, bleach, or fabric softeners, as these can clog the membrane and reduce breathability.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting. This helps to reactivate the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish on the outer fabric.
  3. Re-Waterproofing: If water no longer beads up on the surface after washing and drying, apply a DWR treatment (available at outdoor retailers) following the product's instructions.
