Reflo is a sustainable sportswear clothing brand. Its clothing is made from advanced technical fabrics woven from recycled plastic. For every product you purchase, Reflo says a tree gets planted and, if you scan a QR code that comes with your garment, another one goes into the ground. It’s a positive story and one many golfers will be happy to get behind and do their bit for the environment. Reflo’s line-up is growing, and I’ve been impressed so far. The Lapter Hoody is a particular favourite of mine – and I was keen to try out this golf rain jacket.
How tall am I/what is my build?
Approximately 6ft 1in. Slim build.
What do I normally wear – does it come up big/small?
Medium for polo shirts, jackets and mid layers will normally fit perfectly. The medium was an Ok fit, although there was a bit of excess material on the arms and cuffs. However, I wouldn’t say I have the arm muscles of a Bryson DeChambeau.
How did it fit/feel/perform?
I have to admit, when I saw the inside of this jacket for the first time, I didn’t think it looked very breathable – it had a shiny appearance on the inside and it looked as though it would generate too much heat. Looks, as they say, can be deceiving. The Wandle, which comes in a grey and black, appears to be very effective in keeping you at a comfortable temperature.

The material is also very stretchy, which is another positive. It means you can swing without feeling restricted. Reflo has opted not to go for velcro on the cuffs, but they are elasticated, so you can find your perfect fit. If you have slim wrists, as I do, you might find yourself with a bit too much material around the cuffs for your liking. However, I can’t really say that that was a major distraction when I was playing. I’ve also played in heavy rain. The Wandle has a water repellent finish, and droplets just bead up and drop off. Even in some pretty nasty stuff, I haven’t noticed any water getting through.
