{"title":"Golf vest","description":"\u003ch2 style=\"margin-top:32px; margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eWhat a golf vest does that a jacket doesn't\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eA golf vest is a sleeveless top that warms the torso without putting fabric over the shoulders and arms. That's the whole point on a golf course: the swing requires free rotation in the shoulders and upper body, and even a light jacket can feel like a restriction at the top of the backswing. The vest solves this by keeping the core warm while the arms move completely unhindered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eIn practice, the vest works best as a mid layer. A chilly morning in April or a windy autumn round is rarely cold enough for a proper jacket, but too cold for just a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/local-rule.com\/collections\/polos\"\u003epolo shirt\u003c\/a\u003e. That's where the vest comes in: it blocks the wind against the chest, keeps the warmth around the torso and can be put on and taken off between holes without you having to change. The Local Rules Tech Vest comes in Tech Vest - Black and Tech Vest - Light Green, both built for exactly this mid layer role.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"margin-top:32px; margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eHow to layer the vest with the rest of your wardrobe\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eThe vest never stays the sole outer garment for the whole round, and that's why it's so useful. On a chilly spring or autumn morning, many start with a vest over a long-sleeved top, take it off when the sun warms things up in the middle of the day, and put it back on when the wind picks up on the final holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eThe most common combination is a vest over a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/local-rule.com\/collections\/polos\"\u003epolo\u003c\/a\u003e or a thinner top from \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/local-rule.com\/collections\/midlayers\"\u003emidlayers\u003c\/a\u003e. If it gets really cold or starts to rain, add a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/local-rule.com\/collections\/technical-outerwear\"\u003ewindbreaker or technical outer layer\u003c\/a\u003e on top. Think of the vest, top and jacket as three controls you can adjust individually during the round, rather than a single choice you lock yourself into on the first tee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"margin-top:32px; margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eWindproof front and what it actually protects against\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eIt's the front that does the job on a golf vest. When you're standing on an open fairway, the wind comes straight at your chest, and a tight front stops the cold air from driving right through to the skin. The back and sides are often built from a more breathable material so that the sweat points on the back can release moisture while you walk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eA golf vest is rarely fully waterproof. Most models, including the technical lightweight vests, are made to withstand wind and light drizzle rather than heavy, persistent rain. If a lot of water is falling, it's a rain jacket you want on top. So count on the vest as your wind- and moisture-resistant layer for days when the weather shifts, not as a replacement for proper rain gear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"margin-top:32px; margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eHow a golf vest should fit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eA golf vest should fit tightly enough that it doesn't flap during the swing, but loose enough that you can fit a layer underneath without it pulling across the shoulders. When you stand in your address position and reach your arms forward, the vest should follow along without pulling at the back or riding up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eLength matters: a vest that ends too high at the waist lets in air when you bend over the ball, while one that covers the hip keeps the warmth in even in the putting position. If you're between two sizes and plan to wear a thicker top underneath, it usually pays to choose the larger one. If the vest will mostly be worn over a thin polo on a summer evening, the tighter fit works better.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"margin-top:32px; margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eBlack or light green\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eThe Local Rules Tech Vest comes in two colours that solve different things. Tech Vest - Black is the neutral choice that goes with most of what's in your bag and works just as well for an everyday round as off the course. Tech Vest - Light Green is the more pronounced choice for anyone who wants the garment to stand out in the outfit rather than blend into the rest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eBoth colours carry the same function, so the choice is about style, not performance. A practical tip is to match the vest to what you most often wear underneath: a black vest sits discreetly over most polo colours, while the light green one requires a bit more thought about what you wear underneath and on your legs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"margin-top:32px; margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eWhy the vest carries the style beyond the course\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eA golf vest is one of the few golf garments that rarely looks like golf clothing. The technical lightweight vest works just as well with jeans on the way home as with golf trousers on the fairway, and that's a deliberate part of how Local Rule builds its garments. The brand has a clear line around style that works both on and off the course, something \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/local-rule.com\/blogs\/blog\/golf-fashion-style-that-works-on-and-off-the-course\"\u003ethis review of golf fashion\u003c\/a\u003e explores in more depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eFor anyone who wants to read more about how to put together a complete round outfit, there are \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/local-rule.com\/blogs\/blog\/men-s-golf-outfit-ideas-sharp-style-on-and-off-course\"\u003etips on golf outfits for men\u003c\/a\u003e, where the vest often shows up as the layer that ties the rest together.
