A buddy of mine told me about a jacket he said was made by DiscConcepts that had two pockets too keep putters warm and dry during the rain. Does anyone know of this jacket, or where I can get one? Also price would be nice.

True! DISConcepts did sell these for a while. Putter pocket and all! I was working with a “custom” clothing company for a couple of years producing these high-end jackets and vests. The manufacturer allowed me to "suggest" design features that would be beneficial to Disc Golf. But high cost, low volume, and a move to South Carolina have all but put an end to producing anymore (for now). But…. I still do have all of the designs, contacts, and details to producing more! All of the jackets and vest designs were similar, but customers were able to pick which price range ($69-$219) and features they wanted for their custom gear. From polar-tech classic fleece, polar-tech wind-bloc ACT, to soft-shell technology designed to keep disc golfers comfortable in “all” conditions. I sold about 75 of these over time but really was not getting the response I needed to do complete manufacturing runs. Look for another run of the gear in the Fall of 2005, when I will give it another go! In the near future look for a new line of Dri-fit collard golf shirts, crew neck golf shirts, burly cotton tee shirts, and nice towels at a tournament and dealer near you. If you have ideas about special disc golf gear or accessories that you would be interested in purchasing, please send me an email as I am always looking for new products to progress the sport. Cheapies need not apply! All of our products are top quality items that have a professional touch and are built to last. My website is still down and in the process of a complete makeover, so you will find little info there for another few weeks.

I have one of those vests. My wife bought it for me for xmas 2 years ago. Thats the best **** vest a golfer could buy. The putter pocket is great for those cold or wet days. Very good quality product. Some tought it was a little pricey when I told them how much, but you know the saying........"You get what you pay for".

The vest was worth every penny, just like a revolution bag. Pay for the quality.

I really hope you bring back the line of vest and jackets, I would love to get another item or two. :D

A lot of golfers from up in New England had never heard of them, until my friend John Debois told be about it. Also one of the td's up here was wearing one. I checked it out, and it looked bulletproof. If you have any size M jackets like this left I would love to pick one up. If not then this new run of clothing in 2005 would be perfectly complimented if you made this jacket again out of gore-tex, and made the putter pockets chamios, or some other super wicking material. I wish that I had heard of these when they came out, and I know a bunch of guys up here that would love one too.
