Golf is a sport that requires precision and concentration. The right clothing plays a decisive role, as it not only influences comfort, but also performance. Especially in summer, materials and cuts that provide optimum support for the body are in demand. The ideal properties for golf clothing in summer include breathability, moisture management and elasticity. Suitable materials are synthetic fibers such as polyester or polyamide, often with a percentage of elastane, which fulfill these functions perfectly. They draw perspiration away from the skin, dry quickly and offer unrestricted freedom of movement for the swing.
Men's polo shirts for the golf course are designed to offer comfort and freedom of movement without compromising on style. The differences often lie in the manufacturers' specific details and technologies. The J. Lindeberg Polo Heath and the J. Lindeberg Polo Tour Tech Regular Fit are both made from 100% polyester. They are both breathable, moisture-wicking and elastic. The Polo Heath is characterized by a slightly elongated back and side slits, while the Tour Tech is also quick-drying and features ribbed cuffs and special branding placements. The Tour Tech is also designed for team outfits.
With the Adidas Polo Performance, Adidas offers a model made from 100% recycled polyester, which makes it a Primegreen product.

Women's polo shirts for golf combine fashionable aspects with high functionality to ensure optimum comfort even in warm temperatures. The J. Lindeberg Tour Tech polo for women offers similar properties to its male counterpart: it is breathable, moisture-wicking, elastic and quick-drying.

Lindeberg Shorts Vent Tight made from a polyester-elastane blend are characterized by 4-way stretch, quick drying and Bluesign certification, which indicates environmentally friendly production. A subtle mesh structure and a crease also give them a stylish touch.
