Full details
The Castore Golf Flex Half Zip Gilet is designed for adult male golfers seeking enhanced performance and freedom of movement. Its key benefit is the engineered fabric that allows for extreme flexibility and quick drying, keeping you comfortable on the course.

FAQs
What is ProTek technology?
ProTek technology is an application that provides a water-repellent shield to the fabric, helping to resist light moisture and keep you dry.
Is this gilet suitable for heavy rain?
The gilet offers water repellency, which is effective against light showers or dew. For heavy or prolonged rain, a fully waterproof jacket is recommended.
What is the main benefit of the raglan sleeve shaping?
Raglan sleeve shaping is designed to allow for a greater range of motion in the shoulders and arms, which is particularly beneficial for athletic movements like a golf swing.
How should I care for the gilet to maintain its performance?
Machine wash cold with like colors, do not bleach, and tumble dry low or hang dry. Avoid fabric softeners and dry cleaning to preserve the fabric's quick-drying and water-repellent properties.
What does 'regular fit' mean for this gilet?
Regular fit indicates a standard cut that is neither too tight nor too loose, designed to be comfortable for general wear and athletic activity without being overly restrictive or baggy.
What material is the gilet made of?
The gilet is made from a blend of 91% Polyester and 9% Elastane.
Troubleshooting
Gilet feels restrictive during swing.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The fabric is designed for stretch, but a size too small could limit mobility. Also, check that the sleeves are properly aligned due to the raglan shaping.
Water repellency seems reduced after washing.
Follow care instructions carefully, especially regarding detergents and fabric softeners. Consider using a technical wash or a specific re-waterproofing treatment designed for athletic apparel if the issue persists after several washes.
Fabric pilling or snagging.
Avoid washing with abrasive items like denim or items with Velcro. Ensure zippers are closed during washing. If minor pilling occurs, a fabric shaver can sometimes help.
