The Open Championship is less than a week away and many players are already in Europe, sharpening up their games on Links style golf courses. However, one factor that players can’t control is the infamous weather often found in the Open Championship, just like the “worst weather ever” in the 2002 Open Championshp at Muirfield! Technology in golf attire has come a long way since then though and Nike has released their latest product to weather the storm, the Hyperadapt Storm-FIT sweater!
The research, design and testing process for the Hyperadapt Storm-FIT sweater took thousands of hours. This was a complete necessity and Nike took on the ambitious effort to “provide comfort, mobility and protection when battling bad weather on the course.” We all know how many layers of clothing or other forms of bad weather golf attire get get clunky and inevitable affects our swings! But the Hyperadapt Storm-FIT’s no-sew technology on the inner layer in addition to its 4-way stretch system in the shoulders minimize any chafing issues. Add an “impenetrable” waterproof (yet breathable) seam-sealed outer layer to the Hyperadapt Storm-FIT sweater and you’ll be all ready for whatever weather comes at you on the golf course! Be sure to look out for players on Team Nike sporting this new product at the Open Championship next week! Or perhaps they’ll get lucky and won’t have to put it to use!
