Dunning Stretch Thermal Striped 1/4 Zip

Today’s round was a perfect situation to put my Dunning Stretch Thermal Striped 1/4 Zip layer into play. The temperatures were only in the 60’s with a steady wind about 10-15 miles per hour. Not warm enough to go without some kind of protection, but not exactly winter golf. That’s spring golf in Utah, or a round of golf just about anytime at Pebble Beach.

Dunning Stretch Thermal Striped 1/4 Zip

Stretch Thermal Striped 1/4 Zip Features

This outer layer is made up of 94% polyester and 6% spandex. No cotton and no problem for me. I love what is being done with these fabrics over the last few years. They’re durable, machine washable, wrinkle resistant, and very sharp looking. The fabric insulates the body well, but also helps it breath.

The sleeves are slimming, meaning they’ll stay out of the way in the golf swing. There’s nothing worse than bad swings caused by irritating apparel issues.

Today I used the included drawstring around the bottom. Once I tightened it a bit those cold drafts no longer crept up from below.

Sizes/Colors

This piece comes in small, medium, large, extra-large, and double extra-large. I sport a large and the fit is great.

Mine (pictured) is the black/silver stripe version. The other color combinations are Dusk/Hastings (light bluish with yellow stripe), Halo/Dusk (dark blue with light blue stripe), Sequence/Light Grey (lighter blue with grey stripe).

On The Course

I need an outer layer to take the edge off of the wind and slight chill, but not too heavy. My black Stretch Thermal is perfect in that situation, and soaks up some of the sun’s heat to help keep my back warm. The garment doesn’t bind or pull during the swing, allowing me to swing freely and crack some massive drives. It also does not impede my putting. I bend over quite a bit and some poorer fitted outer layers can snag the putter grip. That’s a quick way to miss putts.

True to Dunning’s reputation the comfort level is as good as it gets. Style wise? When I wear Dunning I know I’m at the top of the golf apparel food chain.

Conclusion

I’ve dealt with dozens of apparel companies and reviewed countless products over the last 10+ years. Every Dunning product I’ve tested, the $105 Stretch Thermal Striped 1/4 Zip included, features the highest of quality, style, comfort, and performance.

Love the color scheme… click to enlarge

Ah it’s the best time of year, for Masters themed golf gear and apparel.

Its no secret that I’m a big fan of Kentwool. They make fantastic wool socks. I’ve talked about Kentwool quite a bit here on HOG. Check out my Kentwool Tour golf socks review and my Kentwool 19th Hole dress socks review.

I’m sporting my second pair of Masters themed Kentwool socks today.

A sock for the ages.

A sock like no other.

Is it this sock’s time?

Yes (sock) sir!

Amen sock.

Well, I’ve seen it all now. This is an amazing video of a golfer who just might be a little more crazy than me, which is saying quite a bit. No comments necessary on that. I found this video on my Facebook feed this morning, courtesy of Golf Australia.

As a drone builder and pilot, and one who uses them for aerial photography and video on golf courses, this is an awesome example of the cool material that can be captured. Most of these cuts of this crazy guy paddle surf scuba golfing are shot by some kind of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV).

Hats off to whoever produced this gem.
