A bit of rain shouldn't end the round. This wet weather gear is built for those days when the forecast turns but you're still heading out anyway.

From waterproof layers to reliable umbrellas and gear that handles damp conditions, it's all about staying comfortable and keeping your focus on the shot rather than the weather. Ideal for typical NZ days where it can turn mid-round, this is gear that lets you play through it without fuss.

What Actually Keeps You Playing

Start with the jacket. Men's rainwear and women's rainwear rated at 10,000mm or above will handle a proper Bay of Plenty downpour, and taped seams matter as much as the fabric rating. A golf umbrella with a vented double canopy is the difference between shelter and a broken umbrella on the sixth.

Then protect what's in the bag. A waterproof golf bag keeps your spare layers and valuables dry, and a rain cover does the same job on a bag you already own. A rain glove is the one most golfers skip, and it's the one that matters most, because it grips harder the wetter it gets while a normal glove goes slick.

Keep a golf towel somewhere it'll stay dry, ideally under the umbrella rather than clipped to the outside of the bag. Browse the wider golf accessories range for the rest.
