If you live in a rainy climate, having a golf rain suit is an indispensable necessity. Many rain suits are bulky, heavy, and difficult to keep in your bag for those unexpected shower emergencies. There is an alternative, though, in the value rain suit category -- what ...
Golf Apparel & Clothes
Shoes? Check. Hat? Check. Socks? Check. Shades? Check. Slacks, Shirt, raingear, gloves? Check.
We’re ready to go. What time is our tee time? Whoops. Watch? Check.
No one ever said golf was an easy sport to prepare for. The beauty of the game is that you can be as much of a minimalist as you want while playing the game — or accessorize like crazy.
This is a nice place to check out some of the latest and greatest types of apparel for both men and women.
The greatest thing about the sheer number of manufacturers and companies is the plethora of apparel that you can find. It is a smorgasbord. A veritable cornucopia. Apparel for every weather condition. Apparel for special occasions. Apparel for different styles. Apparel that not only makes you look good while you play, but actually makes things much more enjoyable when having to deal with things like the elements.
For example, when the sun is beaming down and the “heat is on,” make sure you pick out a nice hat and don the shades. In addition, unless you’re competing on the Tour, you can probably get away with some nice shorts (or knickers if you’re brave).
But if the weather is cold and the wind is biting, don’t forget to jump into your rain gear or storm-proof pants. In addition, it is always nice to make sure your hands are warm with a good glove (or set) and even a wind vest for added warmth.
Brands
There is absolutely no shortage of brands that have been making golf apparel well for a long time. Adidas, Nike, Ferrosi, Proquip, Titleist, Puma, and Marmot are just some of the manufacturers that look to create items that will keep you comfortable on the course in all types of weather and conditions.

Proquip Rain Gear Review
Waterproof Golf Jacket & Pants for Men & Women
I used to make fun of my parents when they first learned how to golf. They were like the Postal Service of the links. Through rain, sleet, snow, or hail, they would get those clubs... and flail. Sorry, couldn’t resist. Seriously, though, they would golf in ...
Masters Golf Polo, Green w/ Logo
Augusta National Shirt, Men’s Short Sleeve
At the writing of this blog, the 2011 Masters just came to a close, and Tiger didn't win (again). He sure put on a heck of a Sunday charge, though. He shot 31 on the front nine and peppered the pins on the back nine. ...
Outback Toyo Hat, Mens Black
Rory Sabatini Cowboy Sport W32S16E
I searched near and far to find you a cowboy hat that you could play golf in similar to the one Rory Sabatini wore in his big win at the 2011 Honda Classic. I knew some of you golf geeks would be "Johnny on the spot" to buy ...
Titleist Mesh Golf Hat, Flexible
Mens Flex Fit Baseball Cap, Black or White OSFA
I wonder why nobody has invented a better golf hat yet. You ever notice we all just look like baseball players going to a wedding? We have nice leather shoes and a button-up collared shirt tucked into our neatly ironed slacks with a fancy belt. But ...
Ferrosi Crop Pant Mens Knickers by Outdoor Research
Wind Resistant Golf Clothing Three Quarter
These Ferrosi Knickers are right up my alley because they look like I could wear them into the woods camping and not need another pair of pants for weeks. Plus, they look like something that you could find at one of my favorite stores: REI.
Of course, golfing knickers ...
Golfer Costume Knickers
Traditional Golf Halloween Party Sports Clothing
I'm a little disappointed that there aren't more choices for the "old school" knickers like Payne Stewart used to wear. My man Payne always looked stylish in his knickers that became his trademark attire on the PGA Tour up until the time his plane crashed in 1999. I ...
Civia Wool Knickers
Golf & Bike Long Shorts w/ Adjustable Knees & Pockets
Okay, bear with me, I'm crossing over into the sport of cycling. I know this is ground we golfers don't usually venture into. Why the heck would I participate in a sport where I get all hot and sweaty? Plus, I've yet to see one of ...
prAna Nemesis Knicker Shorts
Men’s Golf Crop Pants, Climbing Sports
I'm no "fashionista," but I can hold my own when it comes to pop culture these days. Men's shorts have been getting longer and longer. We are getting dangerously close to the line where the inevitable debate will begin: Are they shorts or are they pants?
I'll let ...
Loudmouth Golf Shorts
Mens Sports Clothing, Colorful Graphic Raspberry Surebet Tooth
Try staring at this pattern for a few minutes. Let your eyes go blurry. Do you see the Dolphins jumping out of the water? Try harder!
Naw... I'm just joshing you. There are no dolphins hidden in the pattern -- actually, they're butterflies.
These shorts come from the same ...
Loudmouth Golf Pants, Shagadelic Black
Mens Cotton Spandex Sports Pant
"Yeah baby, yeah!'
If you've seen John Daly "strutting" his stuff around on the PGA Tour recently, then you've seen these pants before (or a similar pair). John's the poster boy for these obnoxious, Loudmouth designs. "Loud" being the key word here. These pants are a Van ...
Nike Birdseye Dri-FIT Golf Polo Mercerized
Tiger Woods Men’s Sports Shirt in Black, Blue, Pink & Yellow
The bright colors are in now on the golf course. I’m not sure how it started, but the rule now seems to be: the louder, the better. Have you seen what John Daly has been wearing lately? I can’t roll with his style yet, but I do think guys like Ian ...
Colorado Rockies Golf Shirt by Nike Dri-FIT
Men’s Baseball Polo, Black Moisture Wicking
This is my new favorite golf shirt. I'm not one for sporting the logos of popular golf brands like Titleist or Callaway. (Not unless they are paying me.) I'd much rather brandish the colors of my favorite sports teams. And I'm a diehard Rockies fan!
I ...
Men’s Plaid Golf Pants by Snake Eyes
Flat Front Trouser, Stretch Gray
The Europeans have staged quite an invasion on the PGA tour in recent years. Not too long ago, Irishman Graeme McDowell won the U.S. Open. His good buddy and fellow countryman, Rory Mcllroy, won for the first time on the PGA Tour at Quail Hollow and then ...
Callaway Chev Xtreme Golf Sunglasses
Peripheral Wrap Around w/ Memory Frame TR90
These sunglasses specifically designed for golfers are "ergonomically correct." Ergonomically? Hmmm... Not quite sure… Ahem... Let me sound this word out: "Erg-" (this means comfortable, right?) "Go-" (this... this means they go fast, yes?) and "-Nomically." (they are from Viet-nom? I better Wikipedia this word...)
"Ergonomically" means ...
Adidas Retego Golf Sunglasses
Hinged Frame in Black, White & Silver
Adidas enlisted the help PGA Tour pro Justin Rose to design these stylish sunglasses designed specifically for the links.
The style is pretty cool, but they also have some cool technology. The double-snap nose pad is more comfortable than your typical plastic sports glasses.
Have you ever been looking for ...
Titleist Golf Hat, One Size Fits All
New York NY Yankees Baseball Cap
"Hey, yuse guys. Tink da Yankees are gonna win da pennant? Jeets is gonna have another wicked yeah and A-Rod is da man… Ay - faggettabout it!"
It pains me to write this review on this sharp-looking Yankees baseball cap. The thing about the ...
Tifosi Lust Wrap Around Sunglasses
Bendable & Unbreakable, Black Grilamid TR-90
My buddy Dino was sporting a pair of cool sunglasses last Sunday on the golf course that looked almost exactly like these, only they had an "O" on the side. I'm thinking that stood for Oakley.
This style is what I would call "Race Car Driver Black" and is ...
Callaway Mens Ankle Golf Socks
Cotton Large Fit Performance, Moisture Wicking
Calling all golfers with BIG DOGS! No, not your driver -- your feet! These Callaway Performance socks are a great product and will fit your gargantuan foot. (Small-footed golfers will also appreciate these socks.)
Because most socks are designed for a range of sizes, people with larger feet ...
Men’s Nike Sports Socks Ankle
Reinforced Toe, Moisture Wicking Dri-Fit
You just stumbled across my secret weapon! Shhh! Don't tell my golf buddies. These guys show up to our tee time wearing some crazy, ugly cotton socks. One guy who shall remain nameless rarely even bothers to match his socks. (Unfortunately he beats me ...
Nike Golf Hat, Tiger Woods Victory Red
Baseball Cap Flex Fitted, Black or White
He's back! Where you at, Tiger Woods fans? Here is the 2010 Victory Red Tiger Woods logo hat. Although 2010 may be a year Tiger wants to forget, I think the golf world will always remember this crazy one.
No, this hat does not come ...
Golf Pajamas by BedHead, Drawstring Elastic Pocket
Men’s Cotton Sleepwear
Really? Haven't you embarrassed your family enough? You put that silly broken car window golf ball sticker on your minivan, you've got the golf door mat at your front door, and you even have a golf flag flying in your front yard. ...
Women’s LPGA Golf Hat, Adjustable Baseball Cap
Gogie Girl Dottie by Vicki Waldorf
The LPGA tour is gaining popularity, and more and more girls are picking up the game. I think a big part of this trend is the cool fashion designs that the ladies are sporting. Here's a great concept invented by Vicki Waldorf, wife of PGA Tour pro Duffy ...
Women’s LPGA Golf Hat, Baseball Cap
Gogie Girl Carly by Vicki Waldorf
This is such a great idea! Vicki Waldorf, wife of PGA Tour pro Duffy Waldorf, started this company when she realized there were no baseball caps designed for women. The name comes from a nickname she gave her daughter who, when she was a baby, used ...
Men’s Ashworth Golf Hat
Adjustable Baseball Cap, Core Cresting
This hat is very cool! Maybe it's because I'm as old as Brett Favre, but I'm not a big fan of the flashy, loud hat with the flat brim. Ah, but this simple, solid colored Ashworth hat is right up my alley.
Of course, when I think of Ashworth ...
Marmot Men’s Waterproof Rain Coat
Outdoor Golf Jacket PreCip
If you are going to play this game, you better have a good rain coat. I like this Marmot Men's PreCip Rain Jacket because it folds up very compact and fits very easily in my golf bag.
If this jacket doesn't keep you dry, nothing will. It is ...
Weather Company Nylon Rain Suit
Golf Sports Waterproof Clothing
Umbrellas are for sissies! A man wears a rain suit. (Incidentally, if you are a sissy, check out this really cool umbrella that was featured on Regis and Kelly.) For you men, read on… GRRRRRRRR!
It's January, and you're golfing in the great Northwest. ...
Frogg Toggs Sports Rain Suit, Pro Action Blue
Golf Waterproof & Windproof Clothing
Are you a fair weather golfer or are you a mudder? If you're a mudder like me, then a little torrential downpour and gale force winds are simply a minor inconvenience. But you've got to be prepared and you have to have a good rain suit.
I really ...
Ashworth EZ Tech PGA Golf Polo
Short Sleeve Knit Collared Shirt, Solid Color
You know Ashworth! This is the stylish apparel with that cool golf stick figure drawing. I've been wearing Ashworth shirts for probably twenty years. I can't lie -- it's all because of Fred Couples. The first time I ever went to a PGA tour ...
Kids Golf Starter Kit, 3 Piece
LPGA Girls Rock Pink Backpack
Golf is no longer a sport for us dorks and old guys. The LPGA tour is gaining more and more popularity, and the kids are all getting on the bandwagon. No wonder I can never get a tee time. (Of course, I'm just kidding; I ...
Girls Pink Capri Pants, Juniors Twill
LPGA Tour Golf Clothing
Pink is the fashionable color for the ladies today out on the links. Thanks to LPGA Tour pros Natalie Gulbis and Paula Creamer, golf is now cool for the girls. When Tiger Woods first hit the scene, I would see more and more boys out on ...
Women’s Golf Hat, Gogie Girl Kelli
Ladies Trucker Baseball Cap
I wish I were a girl so I could sport one of these cool Gogie hats. (Did I just say that? I really should save these confessions for my group therapy.)
Seriously though, I really like this product. Vicki Waldorf, wife of PGA Tour pro Duffy Waldorf, ...
Tiger Woods Mens Belt
Black or White Leather Signature Logo
Come on, is Tiger really different than the rest of us?
I mean really. He puts his pants on one leg at a time, right?
Of course, they are custom tailored black-Gaberdine-perfectly-hemmed-rich-guy pants. Of course, they are disposable in the fact that he probably only buys them, wears them once, then throws ...
Suunto Wrist Top Computer Watch
Digital Altimeter, GPS, Barometer X6HR
Wow. Fire up the Flex Capacitor, Marty -- we are going Back... to the Future!
This watch laughs in the face of those who are looking for a mere "timepiece." This thing is waaaaay more. It's more than an altimeter and barometer that sends alerts if conditions change ...
Nike FURI Designer Sunglasses
Red or Black Vented w/ Swoosh Logo
I'm one of the unlucky ones.
I have to wear glasses. It didn't start until later in life. Some of you know how it is. Others don't.
Some of you are like me and have to decide how you are going to shade your delicate pupils from the harmful UV ...
Nike Triax Speed 100 Sports Watch
Digital Chronograph Slanted Display
I'm pretty young. Yet there are a few things that I seem to still be "old school" about. One of them is the type of watch I wear.
Before I continue, remember that these reviews can be very personal and opinionated. This is just one of those ...
Callaway Golf Men’s Sport Watch
Stainless Steel Black Quartz Analog
Now we're talking! This watch looks good. Attention! Gift idea for me to all relatives and friends that owe me a favor. Yeah, that's right. You know who you are. I saw you drop a ball on number 12 last week when you couldn't ...
Adidas Men’s TechFit Crew T Shirt
Power Web White Short Sleeve
I think I end up reviewing these shirts as a joke. Because that's what it would like like if I were to squeeze into one of these.
A joke. A joke with Michelin-type ridges.
So I'll go ahead and review this as... an undershirt.
I just found the best product ...
Puma Golf High Shine Belt
Mens Black Leather | Geoff Ogilvy
This belt looks familiar. I know Geoff Ogilvy sports this trendy belt.
I live in Portland, OR, where Puma clothes, shoes, etc. are the uniforms of the urban kids. They make shoes that are distinctive because they look like bowling shoes or wrestling shoes. Plus, they are very colorful. ...
Nike Tiger Woods Belt
Black Leather Size 42 w/ Silver Loop Buckle
Size 42?! Excuse me?! Does Tiger know that they are making his belt in a size 42? Of course Tiger is one of the fittest guys on the planet. His biceps are bigger than my knee caps, and his waist is probably a size 25. If you ...
Adidas Men’s Tech Golf Shorts
Khaki Twill Flat Front 363702
I used to wear cut-off jeans, a tank top and flip flops to play golf. It's true. (I'm not proud.) Sam Snead Executive Golf Course is a par three golf course in Titusville, Florida, where there's not much of a dress code. (The code is that ...
Nike Revive Sunglasses
Gold Amber Polycarbonate Lens EV0269-703
Here are some cool shades to wear out on the links. These Nike Revive Sunglasses utilize some of the latest technology that can improve your golf games.
No, they aren't going to fix your slice! They will keep you cool though. (I mean literally.) They have a ventilated nose ...

Men’s Waterproof Rain Pants
Rain, rain, go away. Come back another day. All of us golfers want to play.

Nike Golf Men’s Leather Belt
G-Flex Canvas Croco Overlay | Tiger Woods
Tiger Woods is a crocodile hunter! I bet you didn't know that. It's true -- he can do anything. Just take a look this belt. Tiger killed this crocodile with his bare hands and then made a belt with it. (Hang on a second, my ...
Adidas Men’s Golf Polo Shirt
ClimaCool Pique CoolMax Extreme 915947
As far as I'm concerned when it comes to golf polos, there are only two brands: Nike and Adidas. I've tried many others, but they feel cheap and don't add up.
I like this Adidas Navy Blue Shirt. It's the lightweight CoolMax Extreme design. It's 100% polyester ...
Nike Golf Men’s G-Flex Belt
Oil Tanned Leather | Tiger Woods
Tiger Woods is the greatest golfer of all times. That's right, I said it. You know how I know? I'll tell you… Does anybody know what kind of belt Jack Nicklaus ever wore? Aha! Gotcha!
Here's a beautiful oil tanned leather belt that "The Master" wears. ...
Adidas Mens Rain Jacket
ClimaProof Provisional | Black Polyester Waterproof
We hate to play in the rain, don't we?
But we're just crazy enough to still do it, aren't we?
Well some of you out there may have never experienced it, but up here in the Pacific Northwest, there is a reason why we are always so green on the kids' maps.
It rains. ...
Adidas Men’s Golf Pants
Rain Waterproof ClimaProof Provisional
I live in the great Northwest. If you are a golfer in the great Northwest, then you need to possess two important qualities: You must be able to drink copious amounts of coffee, and you must have gills. We golfers that go out in the drenching rains (that ...
Men’s Golf Polo Shirt
Under Armour Abernathy Moisture Wicking
I knew it would come to this.
But I have to be honest. Brutally and painfully honest. I'll call myself out, and if you fit in with me, you'll know what I'm talking about. If not, then don't take any offense to this, and knock yourself out with this product.
Here ...
Tech 40 Men’s Sports Watch
Northstar CW3 w/ LED Compass
Ok, who is the wise guy who invented this? Or better yet, who is the wise guy who is looking to market this for golfers?
Can we make a stand, here? Can we put our soft-spiked-feet down and say, "Enough is enough?"
I'm a little offended by the Tech 40 Northstar ...
