Sun Mountain Expands Popular Windshirt Collection for 2013

(Missoula, Montana) – The Sun Mountain Headwind windshirt blocks wind and is so lightweight you might even forget you’re wearing it. With a water-repellant coating, this pullover doesn’t just protect from wind but also a light shower. Following a successful first year, the Headwind collection is expanding for 2013 to include men’s and women’s and short and long sleeve styles. Headwind wind jackets are in golf shops now from $59.

Headwind is a windproof microfiber pullover jacket with a stand-up comfort collar and hand warmer pockets. The exterior of the jacket is treated with a durable water repellant coating (DWR) so a light rain simply beads up and rolls off. For 2013, the Headwind Long Sleeve ($89), Short Sleeve ($69) and Women’s Headwind ($79) also include a flexible insert across the back and shoulders. Constructed from Sun Mountain’s proprietary water-resistant and breathable RainFlex fabric, this insert stretches with the golfer to allow a free and unrestricted swing. The new for 2013 Headwind Solo ($59) offers the same wind and drizzle protection as the other models without the stretchable shoulder insert.

To give the highest level of comfort and allow a customized fit without inhibiting the swing, Headwind also features shock cord adjustments at its lower hem as well as adjustable cuffs.

An early field-tester said this about the Headwind, “I golfed in windy, drizzly 40-degree days here in Wisconsin, and this shirt completely blocked the wind — and the drizzle beaded up and fell right off. I was dry and comfortable and I didn’t have to do anything other than give a good shake at the end of the round. Lightweight and roomy, it’s as if I didn’t have the shirt on. The fabric is quiet also — no swishy sounds of cheap raingear.”

Headwind comes in an array of colors in both men’s and women’s styles so you can add a splash of color with royal blue or red for men, and purple and cedar for women, or stick with the more traditional black, gray or white.
