Update Your Golf Gear with Neutrals with a Pop of Color
If you want to update your golf gear without going overboard, neutrals are in. Black, white, grey, and navy blue are simple and easy to put together. All you need for a pop of color is a green jacket or a yellow t-shirt.
Want to get more creative? New golf apparel comes in prints, too! Try patriotic golf shirts or camouflage hats. Tropical patterned socks can be a fun way to add style to your neutrals.
Classic Fashion Making a Comeback
Some of the standards of golf fashion are coming back this year. They are lighter and more comfortable.
The patterns of tweed and argyle golf shirts and pants are coming back but without the heaviness. Instead, the patterns are there in a thinner and softer fabric. You can breathe!
Fashion trends for golf apparel are leaning towards performance fabrics that are easy to move in. Shorts, skirts, and pants are created to keep your classy look more comfortable.
Golf Apparel for Women Becomes Function and Stylish
Since there are so many women coming to the green, golf shops are showing more variety in their style options. It’s no longer a must to wear that pink polo!
Quilted jackets and vests are hot fashion trends on the course. They look great and they keep you warm during those early morning tee-offs.
Golf jumpsuits are standing out in golf fashion, too. They look cute and they are made of fabrics that let you move. They even look fabulous off the course, too!
Don’t Forget the Golf Shoes
Pick a primary solid color for your golf shoes and they will always match your other golf fashion. If you want to stick with the neutral color themes but want a little more style, choose a simple pattern. Checks, dots, or other patterns can make a huge statement.
Feel free to mix and match your brands. Just because you choose Adidas or Nike or Puma for your shoes, it doesn’t mean you can go with other brands for the rest of your golf apparel.
Function First, Style Second
The most important factor of your golf apparel should always be function. Make sure you can move easily. But you can have fun adding style to your function with these fun trends.
