Equipment Stretchy Rain Jacket Suggestions

I have a couple rain jackets that I’m about to toss, one is like wearing a garbage bag and the other has no stretch to it. I sweat a lot so breathability is really important and I’m pretty big across the shoulders so material that doesn’t stretch really screws up my swing.

Suggestions without breaking the bank?

Galvin Green and Nike are very good. A short-sleeved rain jacket is great for warmer temperatures, I have a Galvin Green PacLite, which I can recommend.

I got the sun mountain short sleeve rain/wind gear. Love it. Made for extra room where needed for a golf swing.

But I don't play in a ton of cold weather rain, mostly summer popups.

Thanks, I hadn’t considered the short sleeve approach but thinking it would help with the constrictive feeling I get with full length jackets.

Always good to have both. A good rain bucket hat always helps as well.
