ABACUS RYDER CUP COLLECTION – KEY HIGHLIGHTS
GROVE HYBRID JACKET
This stylish, lightweight, windproof jacket features quilted padded front and back panels for warmth, while a stretch fleece fabric in the sleeves, side panels and shoulders enables unrestricted movement and ensures a snug, yet comfortable fit. Added wind protection comes from using a ‘heat pressed’ quilt, a process that avoids the small holes left behind from stitching therefore enhancing the overall windproofness of the jacket.
Design features include a full zipper at front with chin guard and inside wind flap to keep neck and throat away from wind and cold air and is finished with reflective piping, two handy front pockets with zip closure, Abacus logo on right sleeve and prominent Ryder Cup logo on left chest. Available in Black for men and navy for ladies. RRP: £120.00 / €140
GROVE HYBRID VEST GILET
The Grove Hybrid Gilet features all the same material and performance benefits as the Grove Jacket – seamless, quilted and padded windproof fabric to the front and back with side panels and shoulders constructed from stretchy fleece – but without the full sleeves. Ideal for wearing over a long-sleeved base layer or midlayer, the Gilet features elastic binding around the armholes to keep the wind out and ensure the body remains warm. Other design features include a full zipper at front with reflective piping, two handy front pockets, and prominent Ryder Cup logo on left chest. Available in green for ladies. RRP: £100.00 / €120
LYTHAM SOFTSHELL JACKET
