Best Waterproof Jacket under $200?

[Scooter McGavine]

Just got my Christmas bonus and want to buy myself a quality waterproof golf jacket (long sleeve). I figure a $200 budget should be sufficient without breaking the bank. I'd love some opinions from those of you that have gear you love and would recommend. Thanks in advance!

ProQuip!

Just find something goretex on closeout.

Adidas has a couple good gore jackets that you can find. You can find Sunice Goretex for under $200 too.

There are several people selling them new on ebay.

[/quote]Bingo, gortex is probably the best out there so see if you can find one on sale, most should be pretty comparable.

Agreed. Gortex. I've got a Sunice typhoon and it work s great.

Dont be afraid to look at sierratradingpost.com for good outerwear. It's not golf specific but they have a ton of last seasons stuff on sale for huge discounts. Marmot makes some of the best stuff out there but they don't market it towards golf. Their preclip jacket is a waterproof and highly breathable shell that I really like.

I got a Sunice Goretex jacket from TGW last year for $75. Just go to their web site and sign up for their emails. You'll pretty much get a sale discount code from them every week. Combine that with sale items and you can find quality gear for low prices. If you're patient you will get a great deal. Probably after Christmas they will lower prices to clear out their warehouse.

Just make sure it's Goretex - apart from that you can't go wrong.

Another for Sunice. I found a typhoon jacket at marshals for $29 on clearance. It's been a great jacket so far.

Tough to find Galvin Green for $200 and your size (be careful)- you might come close at 30% off, or eBay, or some site that has small size only. Otherwise, I'd look at Sunice with Goretex, Nike Hyperadapt (which I have) or ProQuip USA (which has sales this time of year)

Is it possible to find a good waterproof rain jacket under $200? I was thinking $350 would be about as cheap as you can find a really good one.

Find a sale ... usually this time of year is the best time to find deals on raining, cold weather gear - Black Friday was a good day for sales.

There are a few others on Amazon like this. $109-$115. Adidas Goretex is the way to go for the price.
