Wear the polo with your favorite sunglasses and choose your favorite solid colors to coordinate with the rest of your golf outfit.
Lightweight Performance Shorts
Shorts are an essential part of any Southern men's golf outfit. But not every pair of shorts count as performance golf apparel! The best performance shorts on the market are made with brrrº Triple Chill Effect Technology and available in various coastal-inspired colors, like our brrr°®-die 8" Performance Short. Pair these shorts with a coordinating belt to keep your look polished swing after swing.
Printed Polo
Add some personality to your swing when you wear our brrr°®-eeze Meadowbrook Stripe Polo on the golf course. Available in coastal colors and a variety of stretchy, comfortable fabrics, men’s printed polo shirts look striking in your warm-weather wardrobe and transition seamlessly between the 18th hole and the clubhouse. Finish this effortlessly stylish look with hats and visors that help you keep your eye on the ball (and out of the sun).
Quarter Zip for Early Tee Times
The noon temperature might be in the 80s, but that doesn’t mean it will be hot in the morning or evening. Wear a classic men’s quarter-zip, like our fantastic Cruiser Heather Quarter Zip Pullover, to block cooler Southern breezes or sprinkles before the sun comes out for good. A high-quality pullover also lets you golf in colder seasons without missing a beat — a huge advantage to golfing in the South!
Top Women’s Golf Clothes for Southern Courses
Choosing women's golf clothes doesn’t have to be a decision between comfort and style. When you add women’s active clothing to your Southern golfing wardrobe, you’re selecting performance pieces that stay in place, keep you cool and make a fashion statement every time you step onto the green.
Versatile Active Tops
Start planning your women's golf outfits from the top down. Many women’s tops and blouses double as after-golf outfit stunners, while active tanks and tees wick your skin and stay stretchy with every wear. And for a classic take on your favorite sport, try on women’s polo shirts that echo golfing traditions from generations ago.
Comfortable Performance Pants or Skorts
When you hear “performance golf apparel,” you may not think of pants and skorts on that list. But for effortless style that stays put while you putt, active pants, like our Chapel Performance Pant, elevate both your look and your comfort. They’re made with high-quality stretch materials and complement your favorite active tops or blouses. For women's golf clothes with a feminine flair, combine the cut of a skirt with the security of shorts with women’s skorts.
Breezy Performance Dress
For the ultimate course-to-clubhouse transition, you can’t beat a sophisticated performance dress. As durable and comfortable as they are stylish, active dresses are an essential staple for any Southern woman's golf outfit. Pair with fashionable women’s sunglasses for an eye-catching look that evokes old-fashioned Southern style.
Half-Zip Pullover
Buffer yourself against the early morning chill, evening breeze and off-season temps when you include women’s quarter-zip pullovers in your golf attire. Perfect for layering, draping around your shoulders or packing in your golf bag, a classic quarter-zip keeps the game going long after (and before) the sun makes an appearance on the green. Our Team Colors Runaround Quarter Zip Pullover is one of our favorites.
Score a Style Hole-in-One
