Be careful what you wish for.

A recent December storm that caused more than $100 Million in damage (not to mention the $9700 inflicted on my car when I was sideswiped on the freeway) had me pulling out that beautiful jacket every day, for what seems like a week.

Before I start the review, let me preface it by saying I don't know the marketing names of all of the features. If I look at the website or printed literature first, it makes me lose focus on what I really like about the product. Also, the "swing factor" of this jacket was already proven to me before the rains started - I played golf one cool morning and it kept me warm without restricting my swing. So before I talk about how it performs in the rain, I'll discuss the general performance features I really like.

The Lining: Inside the jacket is a really supple lining that provides some warmth beyond a shell. I also like the soft lined pockets; they double as hand warmers (or dryers).

The Cinch-Strap and Elastic Waistband: No, I'm not describing a pair of underwear. This is a feature found on most golf jackets, which some of you may use and others may hate. I always like to tighten them up a bit, but the usual location, at the bottom cuff of the jacket, is illogical. The jacket tends to puff and bunch up. On the FootJoy jacket, the locking straps are inside the pockets. And on top of that, they don't just control a thin bungee cord; they pull on a 2" band made of elastic that is neatly tucked inside the liner. It works like a charm and is built to last.

The Outer Shell: This may be the only marketing term I get right, without looking. The shell on this jacket is extremely waterproof without being shiny, so when playing on a cool day it doesn't look like you're wearing a rain jacket. A nice feature from the cosmetic standpoint to be sure, but it also means there is low noise and brushing when swinging the club.

Now on to the rainwear aspects of this jacket.

Does it Pass the "Pineapple Express" Rainstorm Test? (No, we're not talking about the movie. The huge rainstorm I described is a result of a huge plume of water that hit California from Hawaii.) I have spent over $200 on a golf rain jacket in the past, and for that price one expects quality and the garment to be waterproof. This one beads the water so well that you have to shake it off like a dog before heading indoors. I have put it through a machine washing and it came out perfect, continuing to perform it's rain duties.

The ultimate test is that since I have acquired the FootJoy jacket, I haven't reached for my "other" go-to raincoat, and my only question is, when can I get the matching rain paints?

How did I do on describing the features without looking? Not bad, as it turns out. Here are a few notes:

The cinch system I described is called "It's a Cinch." The lining is simply described as a "Smooth Lining" and the pockets are said to provide for "hand comfort and warmth."

Things I missed:

The scorecard pocket. I have been using the lower side pockets which actually have plenty of room for a card, but I'm going to start using the chest pocket since that's what it's meant for. The velcro closures, which I didn't mention, at the bottom of each sleeve are convenient and highly functional. I also missed the fact that the zippers are waterproof and the seams are sealed and that's likely why FootJoy warrants the piece to be waterproof in normal conditions for two years, (USA).

Moscow Metro

The Moscow Metro Tour is included in most guided tours’ itineraries. Opened in 1935, under Stalin’s regime, the metro was not only meant to solve transport problems, but also was hailed as “a people’s palace”. Every station you will see during your Moscow metro tour looks like a palace room. There are bright paintings, mosaics, stained glass, bronze statues… Our Moscow metro tour includes the most impressive stations best architects and designers worked at - Ploshchad Revolutsii, Mayakovskaya, Komsomolskaya, Kievskaya, Novoslobodskaya and some others.

What is the kremlin in russia?

The guide will not only help you navigate the metro, but will also provide you with fascinating background tales for the images you see and a history of each station.

And there some stories to be told during the Moscow metro tour! The deepest station - Park Pobedy - is 84 metres under the ground with the world longest escalator of 140 meters. Parts of the so-called Metro-2, a secret strategic system of underground tunnels, was used for its construction.

During the Second World War the metro itself became a strategic asset: it was turned into the city's biggest bomb-shelter and one of the stations even became a library. 217 children were born here in 1941-1942! The metro is the most effective means of transport in the capital.

There are almost 200 stations 196 at the moment and trains run every 90 seconds! The guide of your Moscow metro tour can explain to you how to buy tickets and find your way if you plan to get around by yourself.

FootJoy 30th Anniversary DryJoys Tour Shoe Revealed

300 special limited-edition 30th Anniversary DryJoys Tour shoes have been released to the public

• Sign up to Golf Monthly Newsletter Newsletter

FootJoy has revealed a special shoe to mark the 30th anniversary of the famous DryJoys franchise.

300 of the new DryJoys Tour 30th Anniversary shoes have been made available, celebrating the longest running performance golf shoe franchise in the world.

The DryJoys line was first launched in 1989. A waterproof shoe was something the entire golf shoe industry was looking for at the time, and the DryJoys from FootJoy turned out to be the answer.

30 years on, the franchise still flourishes and maintains that classic style in a market featuring plenty of new looks.

“In recent years we have seen a shift away from the traditional looking shoe in the general golf shoe industry," FootJoy's European Marketing Manager Paul O'Hagan said.

"However, the trust and support for the DryJoys franchise hasn’t wavered. To make it to thirty years, and still remain one of the most popular shoes is a testament to the quality and style.”

The original DryJoys used a Sympatex membrane to ensure waterproof performance, but through close collaboration and significant R&D efforts with Pittards of England, the 90’s saw the introduction of ECL - Extreme Comfort Leather.

The significance of this breakthrough was that FJ was able to remove the membrane, but through a special tanning process the waterproof characteristics of the product could still be maintained.

Removing the membrane made the shoe lighter, more breathable and more comfortable, without giving up anything in return.

As well as the developments in the leather, the outsole has seen several improvements over the years, from DryJoys, to DryJoys GX, DryJoys Pro, DryJoys PODS and later to DryJoys Tour.

The shoe has been heavily represented on global tours since its inception, with Zach Johnson notably trusting DryJoys for both Major wins, eight years apart at the 2007 Masters and the 2015 Open.

FootJoys say that the 'DryJoys Tour remains a seamless blend of traditional styling with cutting edge technology to enhance platform stability for the classically styled golfer'.

“While the style and design of the DryJoys has remained constant over the past thirty years each new introduction has delivered additional comfort, stability and traction with advancements in technology. This is proven by the significant number of Tour professionals who have put their faith in the DryJoys name over the past three decades," FootJoy Director of Product Management for Footwear, Richard Fryer, said.

“Looking forward, we’re constantly evolving the look and feel of the DryJoys brand. I can’t divulge too much information, but rest assured the renowned qualities of a DryJoys - comfortable, stylish, waterproof performance footwear - will be subtly enhanced, safely housed in a fresh, relevant and iconic silhouette.”

The limited- edition 30th anniversary edition is an iconic plain toe saddle style in a white/grey croc colourway, featuring a unique white midsole.

To celebrate, each pair will also feature commemorative FitBeds and will come with a shoe bag with the 30th Anniversary logo.

The 30th anniversary edition DryJoys Tour is available to purchase now for £150.
