Golf Polo Shirts: Engineered for Comfort and Swing
A good golf shirt is a must-have for any golfer, and nowadays, they're often made from clever materials that enhance your comfort on the course.
These modern (active functional) fabrics have special threads that draw moisture away from your skin (moisture-wicking), helping to keep you cool, dry, and able to swing without feeling restricted.
Performance Pique
Best for: Cool comfort
Performance pique is a popular choice in modern golf apparel. It's light and the technical honeycomb mesh knitting structure allows your skin to breathe, offering coolness and comfort even on those hot summer days.
Some of the other features of this material include:
-
It's hypoallergenic, so it's a good option if you find some fabrics irritating.
-
Its thermoregulation technology helps regulate your temperature so you don't get too hot or cold.
-
It offers +40 UV protection to guard against harmful sun rays
-
It wicks away moisture through the fabric yarn so you feel fresh and comfortable throughout your round.
- It has a subtle and elegant textured handle and appearance which some golfers prefer.

Some of its main characteristics include:
-
Offers an impressive four-way stretch, meaning it moves with you as you swing.

UV protection to protect your skin from harmful rays.

Thermoregulation properties.

Midlayers: Maintaining Warmth and Flexibility
Midlayers are worn over your golf shirt to keep you warm and comfortable during your morning warm up, or on cooler evenings.
Here at Glenmuir, our midlayers are made with smart fabrics that not only keep the chill off but also allow your skin to breathe and let you swing without restriction. These fabrics also have special yarn that wick away moisture, ensuring you stay dry.
A few decades ago, most midlayers were made from Merino wool or another type of natural material. However, in recent years, the benefits offered by synthetic fibres have proved to be incredibly useful, especially when striking a balance between breathability, weight and warmth.
Performance Lightweight Stretch With Antistick Tricot Backing
Best for: Light warmth
Made from 90% performance polyester and 10% stretchy elastane, this fabric technology has been crafted to keep your body at a balanced temperature.
While these midlayers are designed to fit snugly, they won't feel tight or stop you from swinging properly, thanks to the smooth "antistick tricot backing" on the inside which glides over your under shirt.

Staying warm on the course is essential if you want to be on top of your game. In recent years, we have seen an evolution of modern golf clothing to include performance, padded thermal insulation.
