This article presents a concise summary of the latest golf fashions. Outlining what’s hot, new and trendy when it comes to casual sportswear. Focusing on women’s clothing this article demonstrates that golf can offer just as many stylish options as any other sport.
Today it isn’t only the discerning sports pro that seeks trendy yet understated athletic clothing; these days sportswear is a regular catwalk trend and is showing no sign of disappearing. Whilst some may dismiss this as a fad or irrelevant trend, there’s much more to the idea that sports such as golf offer both practical and stylish clothing relevant to a range of different age groups. Here are some of the top garments to be found at both the golfing green, high street and designer stores;
Polo shirts
A quick and simple option for warmer weather, or wearing underneath layers, the polo shirt is a classic and fashionable item of womens golf clothing. Worn by celebs, royalty and sports people alike, this versatile top denotes both an awareness of current trends as well as a preference for health and fitness. Worn on or off the golf course the polo shirt rarely goes out of fashion.
Fleece, Jumpers and sweaters
Top layers worn over shirts and tees and as one of the most visible garments seen on a green is often the most difficult to choose. However womens golf clothing provides a wide range of options, with knitted jumpers and sweaters available in many different colours, styles and sizes. For classic style opt for a soft knit jumper with a diamond pattern in contrasting colours across the front. Or go for something more subtle and choose a fleece with a small understated logo embroidered on the arm or side front.
Try the skort
The skirt is a smart and trendy alternative from wearing traditional shorts or skirts it also gives the player a bit more freedom and movement. This option has become very popular amongst the more fashionable ladies.
Tee-off Trousers
A garment that has seen much development over the years in terms of materials, yet stays true to classic sporting styles is the golfing trousers. Whilst many of these trousers come in stretch fabrics that might suggest a more retro look that doesn’t mean to say that golfing trousers can’t be modern and fun. With needle cord fabrics, belt loops for accessorising and multiple pockets, golf styled trousers form an effective practical part of a fashionable sporty outfit.
Water proofs
Of course the inevitable is bound to happen and rain is more than likely to spoil at least a few days on the fairway. However, prepare in advance for such eventualities and you’ll never feel the weather need spoil your fun, or your sportswear. For instance you may find a water repellent gilet just the thing to wear over your sweater. With most golfing garments constructed out of lightweight materials and breathable fabrics you should have no problem locating just the thing to keep you dry whilst maintaining a comfortable swing.
Whilst sports technology and equipment constantly develops, sports fashion is proving it can keep up and evolve too. There’s more choice than ever so pick and choose the styles that suit you best and enjoy your golf clothing as much as you enjoy your game.
