Sunice Hurricane Review

Published

18 years ago

Jul 22, 2008

I know that Southern California is pictured as this sunny, warm place where you don’t need outerwear. It is for the most part. It just so happens that the coastal areas are rather brisk most of the time. That Pacific Ocean makes it downright chilly, especially at night and even in the summer. I recently tried the Sunice Hurricane Ultimate Gore-Tex jacket to combat this. Alright, don’t laugh. I realize that I am quite sensitive to the temperature dropping below seventy degrees. I don’t complain about it, I just dress for it and go about my golfing. The Sunice jacket is a perfect layer for someone like me.

My first impression was quite good. It’s a lightweight (less than 500g) outerwear piece that isn’t bulky at all. I was skeptical if it would really keep me comfortable when the wind picked up off of the Pacific while I was at my local range at night.

The shell construction is designed to be breathable yet waterproof and windproof. The Gore-Tex membrane is guaranteed to keep you dry. The tag diagram shows sweat basically breathing away and rain/moisture staying out. Other features are:

Pro-trim adjustable waist cinch

4-way stretch inserts

External welding tape details

Laser-cut sleeve pocket

In-pocket ball cleaner (attached inside the left pocket)

Telescopic sleeves that are also adjustable on the outer portion

Waterproof zippers with lock down pullers

Sunice originated in 1976 when a manufacturer of firefighter’s apparel and a clothing designer merged into one company. They combine “science and style” in an attempt to take weather out of the equation for golf and winter sports. Indeed, I went to the range late last night and that wind off of the Pacific was in full force so I could put the Sunice to the test. It feels very nice on and the lightweight construction is very easy to wear. The lack of bulk and comfortable construction didn’t interfere with my swing at all. When I zipped it up completely it did keep the wind from giving me a chill.

Overall I would recommend this for those who play coastal courses that are prone to winds and brisker temperatures late in the day. The product is meant to withstand wind and rain and would probably protect you in weather that you certainly wouldn’t want to golf in. The overall construction of the piece makes it easy to fold in half and slide into the rain hood pocket of my Ogio Edge stand bag with ease. I’ll give it a thumbs up.

A reminder from your friends at GolfWRX: Father’s Day is June 21. And as we do every year, we’re rounding up the best gifts for dad.

As we say every year, there’s no better golf-related Father’s Day gift than a round of golf with pops. Be it a country club or your favorite muni, take the time to get together to play 18 if you can.

Let’s get to the gifts.

Ghost Golf Qualifier Diamond Polo

We like the new polos that Ghost is offering, as the fabric and fit are so good. These new Qualifier Collection polos breathe well, are lightweight, stretch with your swing, and of course look great. You can wear them on the course, in the office, or just out at a casual event and they will fit right in.

STR8-Strip Grip Tape Remover

If your dad is an equipment aficionado and tinkers with his clubs, this tool works wonders. Removing grip tape has never been easier, just put a little head on the tape and the STR8-Strip peals it right off the shaft without any damage.

Why Golf: Putting Thing

When it comes to practice, it is good to have a purpose. This “Putting Thing” sure does it. We know from personal experience how challenging it can be and how rewarding it is on the practice green. This also provides some competition for your kiddo to see who will unload the dishwasher or do the next chore around the house.

OluKai Lae‘ahi Men’s Breathable Slip-On Shoes

Riding to and from the course in style and comfort is always a good thing. If you’re in a hurry, it’s a nice feature to slide into your shoes and get to the tee time. For the post-game shoe, at your locker or while putting your clubs away in the car. Nice to slide into a shoe that looks good anywhere. Pair that with meeting the family for dinner, no need to change!

A little wellness goes a long way. Keeping loose is a good way to go when it comes to the weekend game or treatment during the week. If there is a little ache or pain, the Theragun is there to help out. Help loosen up the back for a pre-game warm-up or cool-down.
