It's a full sleeve jacket but you can remove the arms which I find very handy and less restrictive in warmer weather when wearing short sleeves anyway but gives you the option of having full sleeves for the really wet and cold winter conditions. Find it a very good jacket overall and got it cheaper than advertised in the link from a local pro shop in Galway golf club.

I use my half sleeve in the winter with under armour etc underneath and dont have a problem with cold/wet arms...
Though using a golf glider means I have hands free to carry an umbrella...

If it's windy or light showers then I use a half sleeve one. I don't mind getting my arms wet. I find them much easier to play in. However if the rain is lashing down then I resort to full wet gear.
