Any recommendations for wind proof tops?

[harpo_72]

Seems like my jumper has stopped working so looking for a wind top, any suggestions? I found an ashworth one but it was too small, need a 44" chest minimum.

What sort of budget you looking at? Will be a bit easier to narrow down the recommendations then

This is why I asked him what his budget is. Obviously would be my first recomendation

I can go that far if need be, I have a paclite and had that for a while so like the quality. How affective are they? I usually or I used to use the wind tops and was happy with them. I was just looking at the mizuno wind lite fleece coat thing.

I use an under armour soft cell style wind stopper that's fleace lined, it's awesome!

Cracking bits of kit and more than a little waterproof, which is a bonus.

I have several. Ping,Ashworth,Stubert and Oscar Jacobson. To be honest there is little to choose between them. They all do their job. If I were you I'd just get what you fancy at the price you like, it'll be fine.

I have a Stubart one for the £25 it's cracking value, does the job nicely.
As already stated there isn't much too chose between them really choose colour and style you fancy

I've got loads of these sort of things but my favourite is one of the lined woollen jumpers. It's really warm, keeps the wind out and easy to swing in. Several different makes on the market, have a google search :thup:

+1 ^^^^^^ Yes I can vouch for that, best money spent, keeps you well toasty. IT has two pockets o the front as well great for keeping your hands warm while you stand around, in the right place of course, waiting or others to Tee off.

UA stuff is great, had mine for a couple of years and it's only just now starting to show signs of wears after weekly use.

Welcome to the world of 'old men'!

Bet yours has got some sort of picture on the front too - mine has! Cat has adopted it though, so OOB to me!

I find these just a bit bulky, though that Woodworm looks pretty good.

Got a couple of the older GG Windstoppers - cheap in end-of-Year sales years ago - and they work really well. My muchly (ab)used nearly 10 year old Cross stretch FTX waterproof (no longer as seams have parted) works well too.

Take heart. It's an excuse for all sorts of otherwise frowned on behaviour!

Just got one of these for my son, equally as good as my Stuburt equivalent and half the price .. I know Dunlop isn't too everyone's taste but good value
