The first pair we have reviewed here at Golf Support is the ALF Trousers.
The ALF trousers are made from GORE-TEX Performance Shell fabric with an elasticated waist. Gore-Tex Performance Shell is a laminated membrane for durable wind and water protection. The fabric is highly breathable which enables the release of excess heat and moisture. From the experience of the staff here at Golf Support the fabric of these trousers makes them hard wearing and easy to wash and maintain.
With these trousers Galvin Green offer the guarantee that they will keep you dry! That’s a bold statement but tried and tested by our staff and we can confirm so far so good.
When it rains on the golf course, there is no substitute for a good set of waterproofs and there is no substitute for Galvin Green waterproof clothing – simply the best!
The AUGUST trousers are also made from Gore-Tex but Paclite Shell fabric instead of Performance Shell. The laminated Gore-Tex Paclite membrane is very durable for wind and water protection but the fabric is ultra light and ultra packable, making them extremely hard wearing and very easy to wash and maintain.
The fabric is also highly breathable material which enables the release of excess heat and moisture and Galvin Green guarantee to keep you dry. These also have an elasticated waist.
The main difference in these two pairs of trousers is the Ultra-light Paclite fabric of the August trousers which is barely half the weight of conventional Gore-Tex rainwear, the unique abrasion-resistant lamination of Paclite fabric eliminates the need for any additional lining making these the perfect rainwear for the golfer who prefers to carry his bag. Despite its light weight, no compromise has been made and both the ALF and AUGUST trousers are fantastic rainwear.
All the Galvin Green collection is made to match and they never compromise when it comes to materials. All garments are specifically designed to match and function in combination with each other.
Why not match with the Argo full zip Jacket which is a Gore-Tex Paclite jacket. It’s light and breathable and the fabric makes it revolutionary specifically engineered for packability.
Or
The Galvin Green Axley short sleeve jacket. A Gore-Tex Stretch Paclite which also comes with the Gore-Tex Paclite guarantee
All garments manufactured using Gore-Tex fabric have a function and material guarantee. This guarantee means that should your garment leak, after testing, Gore Tex will repair or replace the garment.
We hope you have found this helpful and can now distinguish between these two pair of trousers a little easier.
Until next time,
The Golf Support Team.
