Story & heritage

Galvin Green was established in Växjö, Sweden in 1990 and built its reputation on multi-layer golf garments; by 1995 the brand had launched bright, detailed waterproofs for players who stayed on the course in rain. Luis Windproof and water repellent golf jacket sits in that same system-first approach: a specific layer for a specific playing condition rather than generic sportswear.

The Luis has become a lightweight talking point because the official listing gives its size-medium weight as 94g (3.34 ounces), while Golf Monthly tested it as an ultra-light windbreaker for mild, windy rounds. It is the wind layer you pack when full rain gear would be too much.

Materials & craft

Luis Windproof and water repellent golf jacket is made with INTERFACE-1™ technology fabric and Warming Effect #1. Galvin Green lists it as windproof with a water-repellent finish for light rain, and gives the size-medium weight as 94g (3.34 ounces).

How to choose & style

Choose the jacket by weather first, colour second. Black and navy versions are easiest to wear weekly; the brighter Galvin Green panels make sense for players who want rainwear to feel visible, technical and intentional.
