The PING Jude is a men's hybrid softshell jacket engineered for cold-weather performance on the golf course. By combining two purpose-built fabric constructions in a single garment, it delivers targeted warmth and four-way stretch exactly where your swing demands them most. The laurel colourway keeps the look refined and versatile — equally at home on the tee box in an autumn wind as in the clubhouse afterwards. Designed for golfers who refuse to let the temperature dictate their game, the Jude is the cold-weather layer your bag has been missing.
The Jude's defining feature is its dual-zone construction that places two entirely different fabrics where they matter most. Rather than compromising across the whole garment, PING mapped the body's thermal and mobility needs independently and specified the ideal material for each zone. The result outperforms a single-fabric softshell in both warmth retention and swing freedom — this zoned approach is the foundation of the Jude's cold-weather performance credentials.
The primary shell panels are built from a high-performance three-way blend. Polyamide delivers durability, wind resistance, and abrasion strength; polyester contributes shape retention so the jacket holds its athletic silhouette round after round; and 9% elastane provides four-way stretch that loads and releases with every backswing and follow-through. This fabric is positioned across the highest-mobility zones — sleeves and lateral body panels — exactly where swing mobility is most critical.
Strategic panel inserts in the chest, back, and shoulders use a 100% Polyester outer shell bonded to a layer of polyester wadding underneath. This lightweight wadding traps a pocket of warm air directly against the body in the most exposed and wind-facing areas, creating effective insulation without the stiffness or bulk of a traditional padded jacket. The polyester construction also ensures these insulating panels remain fast-drying and retain their loft even in damp conditions.
The Jude is cut specifically for male athletes, with proportions and panel placement calibrated to support a full golf swing. The collar, hem, and sleeve lengths are dialled in to work comfortably over a base layer and under a golf glove without bunching or riding up mid-swing. The size run from S through to XXXL means golfers of every build can find a fit that performs — not just a scaled-up standard jacket.
