Nice looking jacket. Not in as it's not an option for us big & tall types. Still, thanks Adidas and GolfWRX, some members are going to be extra sharp on the course this fall.

• Where are you located (City, State -- U.S. Only Please)? Syracuse, NY
  
• How many rounds of golf do you play monthly? 8-10 rounds per month
  
• What’s your golf apparel brand of choice? Why? Wear mostly Adidas for shirts, shorts and shoes. All outerwear is Ashworth. I just find there are more color options with Adidas.
  
• How do you hear about new golf apparel products (Tour players, social media, TV/print/digital ads, etc.)? Tour players and just online browsing
  
• What outerwear features do you prioritize (comfort, fit, material, price, style, etc.) Outerwear needs to fit correctly and be able to swing easily in it without feeling super constricted. Difficult to do.
  
• What do you wish you could find in an outerwear piece but haven’t yet? Most of my outerwear requires an base layer (Under Armour) because I often have to go thin with material to still feel ok on the course. Thicker, warmer materials can make me feel more constricted than I like to be on the course.
  
• What is the average temperature while you are golfing in your area? Between 30*F-60*F in the Spring and Fall and up to 100*F in the Summer
  
• Have you reviewed items for GolfWRX before? If so, please explain. No

  [*]Will you be able to play/test the jacket before the middle of October (yes or no)? Yes. Golf in Central New York usually goes until early November

  [*]Finally, we have an essay portion of the application. Please explain why you'd like to review adidas' new Go-To Adapt Jacket

I would like to review the Adidas Go-To Adapt Jacket because I have been looking for an outerwear jacket to wear when the weather cools significantly up here. Having something to wear comfortably on the golf course when it is cold is a big deal around here because our golf season only lasts from late April to early November, so being able to stretch that time out any longer is amazing. Living in an area with fairly extreme temperature ranges, I would be able to give an honest review on how the jacket would perform especially on days where it may be warm in the afternoon but drops to a point where you wish you had a jacket to wear as the sun is setting.

Finally, we have an essay portion of the application. Please explain why you'd like to review adidas' new Go-To Adapt Jacket.

I’d like to get a review this because I’ve heard great things so far about it, I love the look of it and want to compare it to the other gear I have from other companies. I have both UA and Nike rain gear and outerwear for colder weather. I really like the current Adidas lineup and have had my eye on these already and would love to put in to the test and review it. I love my newer Adidas gear I’ve gotten the last two seasons.

• How many rounds of golf do you play monthly? 20+
  
• What’s your golf apparel brand of choice? Why? Depends on the type of apparel. Shorts/pant are Adidas, Under Armour Shirts and Footjoy rain gear. Other outerwear (1/4 zips) I don't have a preference yet. Shoes are Adidas.
  
• How do you hear about new golf apparel products (Tour players, social media, TV/print/digital ads, etc.)? See them on tour players, on broadcast commercials and social media.
  
• What outerwear features do you prioritize (comfort, fit, material, price, style, etc.) Comfort and fit are the two biggest, along with material. Needs to regulate you temperature and also allow you to swing freely as if you weren't wearing multiple layers.
  
• What do you wish you could find in an outerwear piece but haven’t yet? A well fitting jacket that moves and stretches with your swing that can be used is a large temperature range
  
• What is the average temperature while you are golfing in your area? All depend on the time of year or the day. Any where from 32-100! Today the high is 54 and will be 74 on Sunday. Always have to have a 1/4 zip in the truck!
  
• Have you reviewed items for GolfWRX before? If so, please explain. Yes, I did. I was included in a Cleveland Wedge testing a few years ago. Cleveland sent the wrong specs, so took a while before the thread was able to go live.

  [*]I'm wanting to review this new jacket as I play a lot of golf in October here in Minnesota (temp have a big range) and your outerwear like this jacket are probably the most important piece of equipment then. A high performance jacket that doesn't inhibit or effect your swing is invaluable. It can make or break a round when its cool to cold out. Adidas has made some great strides in clothing lately, so I'm excited to see this offering!

I would like to give an unbiased opinion from my Perspective as I feel this is one piece of equipment that has yet to be perfected. I have UA and FJ now but not as happy due to my above explanations. In the mid west or NE parts of our country we have to sweat to be protected which doesn’t seem right in today’s high tech/design abilities in today’s manufacturing. Please choose me as this testing is the most exciting to date for myself. Thanks golf wrx!

​I'd like to review Adidas new Go-To Adapt Jacket because it sounds like the perfect layer for me. I play in the Northeast, and I play more golf in the Fall than I do the rest of the year. I'm constantly looking for a better layer, one that I don't have to constantly take on and off. Rounds where I live, especially AM ones, start off chilly, then get progressively warmer throughout the day. You're constantly taking layers off and putting others on as the sun comes and goes, the wind kicks up, and temperatures rise and fall with it. The Go-To Adapt Jacket sounds like a great solution. I've always liked the fit and quality of Adidas, as they've been very consistent for me. If I were to be selected to test the Go-To Adapt Jacket, I would give it a full and complete review, complete with pictures and write-ups, just like my MonteWRX thread in the I&A section. Thank you for the chance to apply for this!

Thus far, I have been very loyal to Nike Golf. However, I have always been curious about Adidas as the clothes look great on their sponsored players. Given that I buy most of my clothes online, it's just been easier to buy Nike and not try something new. I think the jacket would be perfect for San Francisco weather which is often times cold and foggy but not rainy.

I recently joined a golf club earlier this year and so am playing much more golf than ever before. I don't have any Adidas golf apparel. I always wear Nike shoes and Nike/Travis Mathew apparel. However I recently purchased some Adidas golf shoes that I really like. I have noticed that the newer Adidas apparel is much more fashionable than it was in previous years and the fabrics are top notch. I would like to expand my golf wardrobe to include more pieces from Adidas.

[theboypinoy]

Where are you located (City, State -- U.S. Only Please)?

Sacramento, CA area

 

How many rounds of golf do you play monthly?

6 to 10 rounds a month

 

What’s your golf apparel brand of choice? Why?

Nike, because they blend fashion with technology. On the golf course, I prefer a more athletic look rather than a purely traditional, classic look and Nike provides clothing that have an arrangement of clothing that fit this aesthetic. They also provide distinct fits in their clothing, from roomier to more fitting.

 

How do you hear about new golf apparel products (Tour players, social media, TV/print/digital ads, etc.)?

A combination of both seeing the guys on Tour wearing it, and seeing about it right here on GolfWRX

 

What outerwear features do you prioritize (comfort, fit, material, price, style, etc.)

In order of the attributes listed: fit, style, comfort, price, material. Fit and style are most important. I don't like things that are ill-fitting; for instance, being too baggy can be a distraction. Style is also an important distinction in outerwear. Many companies have the same design, and are typically poor fitting to boot. For style, I tend to use outerwear like jackets and sweaters from golf off the course as well, so style plays a role in what I choose for outerwear.

 

What do you wish you could find in an outerwear piece but haven’t yet?

A piece that provides the best of both worlds. I have plenty of clothing for when it's super hot and super cold. Something that balances the two would be fantastic. Also, I would like something that fits well while providing solid temperature control.

 

What is the average temperature while you are golfing in your area?

Very dependent on the time of year. It can be very hot in the summer to cool in the winter, but we are lucky to have a year-round golf season. The average temperatures for October is 78/50. I'll golf at both ends of the range. In November, 64/43. In December, 54/38.

I have always enjoyed the clothing aspect of golf; I think the Golf Style and Accessories section is where I'm most active. I enjoy searching for new clothing to make its way into my rotation, and the Go-To Adapt Jacket seems like the perfect candidate. It’s not always raining or below zero when playing golf, especially in the area of the country I am in. This looks to be an appropriate piece for the climate here. Additionally, the combination of the two materials is intriguing, and I would enjoy an opportunity to see if the performance matches. Cooler morning rounds into the early afternoon need a perfect balance in offsetting both cold and heat, and the Go-To Adapt Jacket would provide one piece for those rounds. I could pull it out of the closet automatically, instead of determining which piece would be best for the weather. I would appreciate an opportunity to share my findings with the people on this site, similar to how they've done for me in the past.

I will give an unbiased and honest opinion. I believe Jeff Foxworthy said it best: You know you're in Cleveland when you have the heat on in the morning, AC in the afternoon and turn the heat on before dinner(or something to that effect).

  [*]Will you be able to play/test the jacket before the middle of October (yes or no)? yes, i have numerous rounds already planned for October

  [*]Finally, we have an essay portion of the application. Please explain why you'd like to review adidas' new Go-To Adapt Jacket. I play a lot of Spring and Fall golf. I am always looking for the right outerwear piece that allows me to layer without feeling restricted. Freedom of movement is huge in a golf swing and any piece that fits well and allows me to swing freely will be my go to piece for cooler temperatures. I appreciate how Adidas apparel fits me. A lot of their line is cut for the normal guy. roomy fit and comfort. Too many companies are moving towards slim and European fit. Adidas seems to always design with the normal guy in mind.

​East coast golf has weather extremes - those extremes sometimes happen from one hour to the next. Outterwear needs to be flexible for different temps and conditions - and there’s no better place than here to try it. Already this week we’ve had 60s and rainy and 80s and rainy - each distinct different conditions. Plus I can wear golf clothes to my casual workplace so I get to wear this stuff everyday. (Especially when it is the fancier dressier stuff). Plus my family has a thanksgiving day golf tradition - so I will def get my rounds in!
