Does anyone know where I can buy a fitted rain jacket and pants for the golf course? L and XL just don't fit correctly with my body.

I have the Puma golf rainjacket. It's the first I've ever found that fits correctly. I'm 6'3", 160 lbs, so most jackets that are 'big' enough swallow me whole--and I can't swing with all that excess fabric. It's nicely fitted through the body and is made of a stretchy fabric.

It has the zip off sleeves, but rather than leave a big oversize short sleeve, it leaves sleeves like a polo (shorte and more tight fitting sleeves than "short sleeve" jackets that I've always found are elbow length and huge).

Ogilvy wore one like it in the Sony this year--that's the first time I ever saw it...and I knew I had to have it!

As far as sizing goes, I wear a medium in Adidas Climacool and Puma golf shirts...bought the jacket in a large and it is still VERY fitting...not big at all.

More information is probably necessary. How don't they fit? Too long, too short, too baggy, too tight? What's your body type? Some manufacturers make more fitted apparel while others make baggier stuff. We'd need more info to try to help.

Try sunice, their clothes are more europeam fit. Only drawback is that they are a little pricey.

I'm fairly tall, 6'4" and skinny so finding a jacket took me a long time too. I tried on a bunch of SunIce jackets, but none of them seemed to fit me very well. They were a bit shorter and wider in the body, but credit where credit is due, they were hands down the nicest rain jackets for golf you can get. I ended up with a Nike jacket that fits me quite well, I want to say its an XL (but I can't remember) but fairly slim in the body. The FootJoy jackets also fit a bit slimmer, not quite as well as the Nike, but would still be worth checking out. For pants I picked up a super nice pair of GoreTex rain pants and fit really well at my local MEC store for only $100, they sell active outdoor type clothing and they have been awsome, and way cheaper than comparable rain pants from a "golf" brand.

Anyway, happy hunting, let us know what works out for you.
