Fortunately, I'm not one of those guys who regularly needs to nip behind a handy tree for a pee on every other golf hole. However there are many of us desperate to 'take relief' on a chilly winter's morn, especially after 'a wake me up' cup of caffeine.
So what has this alarming topic of conversation to do with the latest product from the FootJoy stable - this Performance Rain Suit from DryJoys?
Well, while the suit's navy trousers include 'quarter-length zips' in its specifications, the apertures are positioned at the bottom of each leg to prevent moisture getting in rather than acting as a 'fly' to allow… (I don't think I need to complete the sentence!)
The alternative is to, somewhat ungracefully, lower your elasticated, Gripper-waisted trousers, which most will admit, even looks undignified in the more appropriate surroundings of a clubhouse comfort station.
Apart from this minor complaint, the trousers keep me warm and dry, thanks to the built in Sta-Dry System, with those zips at the bottom of each leg making it easier to step in quickly with the threat of a shower - and three additional button options to protect socks and trousers.
