I'd recommend the aqua dry from Craig hopper. I buy them in regatta usually cost around 80 euro.
Waterproof thermal lined. Best trousers for golf this time of the year.

These are now discounted by (50%, down to €42.50) on the Craghopper site. I have the Aquadry (Stefan) ones for years and they're great, look the part on the golf course as well.

Decided to go for the Kiwi Pro version this time around.

An additional 10% off if you sign up to the newsletter and free delivery on orders over €80. The 10% isn't factored into delivery, so if you're just above €80 before that discount, it's still free.

Thanks.... would you normally just use these in the winter. would you be sweating in these on a wet day during the summer?

I have an over trouser in the bag that I use for summer downpours. You don't put these over another pair of trousers.

You would sweat a bit on a "nice" summers day. But an overcast and rainy one would be fine imo. They're walking trousers so designed to be comfortable in a good range of climates.

Pdoghue · 23-11-2020 3:05pm

They look a bit bulky for golf, no?

Think it's a unique code Charlie!

DSJGDKL-D98GDF6-10 was mine but I've used it.

paulos53 · 23-11-2020 3:37pm

I just signed up and got the same code

Amazon warehouse is offering a further 30% off like new products , the discount gets shown right before you pay. I have used warehouse before if you order like new products it tends to be an issue with the packaging only

Last week I order a set of Macgregor CG2000 clubs and bag for €150, link to the golf section below

Nice one, was going to ask this. And would you just get them in the size you would get normal pants in? No need to go a size up?

Not really, they aren't tight for sure but I don't think winter ones are anyway.

No need to size up, there's a "part elasticated waist" on them so a bit of give. My old pair were 32, Covid and life haven't been kind and I'm 34 now and they still fit.... but I admitted defeat and went 34 for this order.

There's a belt buckle on them as well if you go the other direction.

I'll stop recommending them now in case I get any complaints!
For €43 they are a real bargain imo.

Mantis Toboggan · 23-11-2020 4:28pm

Lovely need a proper pair of pants for winter. Bought just enough for the free shipping and got the 10% off

Never used these before hopefully decent.

fred funk }{ · 23-11-2020 4:32pm

Thanks Lads, I just ordered myself a pair of the Stefan.

PARlance · 23-11-2020 4:40pm

Feeling the pressure of making the recommendation now

someone had recommended them at full price last week (I seconded) and I thought I better throw them up seeing they were half price, let me know what you think anyway.

I know the feeling as I recommend them last week.

But they are great trousers.

My 2 regulars golfing partners wear them s well.

They better be the rolls-royce of trousers or I'm coming looking for you ðŸ˜

"THANK YOU FOR YOUR ORDER
We'll email you an order confirmation with details and tracking info."

Lots of disappointment if you called this one wrong PARlance :pac:

PARlance · 23-11-2020 6:06pm

I should have set up an affiliate scheme with them!

paulos53 · 23-11-2020 6:50pm

I read a few reviews and there was conflicting advice on the washing instructions. Some say wash as normal, others say you must use a special detergent to protect the waterproof layer.

PARLance, What has been your experience?

Never used any special detergent Paulos and they're still perfect.

paulos53 · 23-11-2020 9:27pm

Cheers for that. Order placed now

finglashoop · 23-11-2020 10:08pm

Arw these fully waterproof?

Mushy · 24-11-2020 9:08am

Had started looking at boots for walking when came upon this thread. The kiwi ones fell into the online basket somehow

REFLINE1 · 24-11-2020 10:14am

IMO they are the best waterproof trousers around.

Great thing is they are not overtrousers.

Franks12 · 24-11-2020 12:25pm

Thanks for this - I was actually looking for some new waterproof gear. Has anyone every used any of their jackets for golf and if so what did they think?

I would imagine they wouldn't be suitable. Best to get one developed specifically for golf. You need something that gets right up into your armpits or as close as possible so as not to interfere with your swing.
