Golf Attire
Golf has a long tradition of specialized attire—attire that reflects the tradition of Scottish aristocrats taking in fresh air while walking around the golf course, swinging their golf clubs, and exercising in a refined, genteel sort of way. Golf attire though, is also being influenced by modern fabrics and trends that stress function and durability. Golfers, like athletes in other sports, are athletes first, and public figures second. Athletes in all sports are showing a preference for moisture-wicking fabrics, crisp details, and modern fashionable colors.
The most recognizable names in golf attire are: Golfsmith, Callaway, Titleist, Oakley, Nike Golf, PGA Championship Apparel, Under Armour, Tommy Hilfiger, Chaps, Jack Nicklaus, Puma, and Tiger Woods.
