Golf has always been synonymous with elegance, tradition, and precision—not just in technique but also in style. A well-curated golf wardrobe balances performance, comfort, and aesthetics, ensuring that players feel as confident in their attire as they do in their swing. But what does it take to truly elevate your golf course style? Here’s how to make smart fashion choices that blend timeless sophistication with modern trends.
Tips for more style on the golf course
1. The power of smart basics
Every golfer’s wardrobe should be built on a foundation of smart basics—pieces that offer versatility, comfort, and a refined look. A well-fitted polo shirt in classic shades like navy, white, or soft pastels is a timeless essential, while tailored trousers or performance shorts ensure a sleek silhouette. Investing in high-quality, breathable fabrics with moisture-wicking technology enhances both comfort and elegance, allowing for ease of movement throughout the game.
2. Layering with style and function
Mastering golf fashion means being prepared for shifting weather conditions. A lightweight windproof vest or a sleek quarter-zip sweater in a neutral tone can add sophistication while keeping you warm without restricting your swing. Advanced fabric technologies, such as Windlock® for wind protection and Sunblock® for UV shielding, ensure that style never compromises performance.
3. Making a statement with trendy pieces
While classic golf attire remains a staple, incorporating trend forward elements can set you apart. Patterned polos, bold yet refined prints, and vibrant accents allow golfers to showcase personality while maintaining an elevated look. The latest trend sees an infusion of vintage looks into stylish golf wear, blending tradition with a fresh, contemporary aesthetic.
4. The color palette that works every time
Timeless hues like blue, white, beige, and Chervò’s iconic green remain dominant, offering an effortlessly elegant look. Complementing these with soft blues and earth tones creates a polished and adaptable wardrobe that transitions seamlessly from the fairway to the clubhouse. The key is finding the perfect balance between neutrals and pops of color that reflect confidence and sophistication.
5. Accessories that elevate the look
A well-chosen accessory can make all the difference. A structured cap, a leather belt, or a sleek pair of golf shoes can refine the overall outfit without being overpowering. Opting for performance sunglasses or UV-protective gear adds both practicality and flair, ensuring you stay protected while looking sharp.
6. The ultimate blend of performance and elegance
Modern golf fashion is about merging technical innovation with timeless style. Leading brands like Chervò have mastered this balance, offering apparel that embodies sophistication while integrating cutting-edge technology for performance enhancement. With designs that fuse Italian excellence with advanced functionality, Chervò continues to set the benchmark for fashion forward golfers in Germany and beyond.
Final thoughts
Dressing well on the golf course is about more than just style—it’s about confidence, comfort, and respect for the game. By making smart fashion choices, from well-tailored basics to trend-conscious statement pieces, golfers can create a wardrobe that is both stylish and performance-ready. Whether embracing classic refinement or experimenting with modern prints, the key is to find a look that embodies both elegance and functionality. For those looking to refine their golf wardrobe with trendsetting yet timeless pieces, Chervò remains a leading name in premium golf fashion—where performance meets Italian elegance on and off the course.
The leaves on the trees are changing color, the sun’s rays are fighting against the clouds, it’s getting cooler and the days are getting shorter. As autumn approaches, the signs for our favorite hobby also change – autumn golf is coming! We explain what you should bear in mind.
Autumn golf – it’s all about the right clothing
No matter what time of day, it’s likely to be wet at Herbst Golf. In the morning, dew will cover the course, at midday and in the afternoon it could get muddy and at dusk the dew will return and fog could spread. Apart from that, it can start to rain at any time. To ensure that you are prepared for all eventualities, your footwear, pants, jackets and headgear must be right.
Starting with the shoes, the lightweight summer shoes, some of which are made of simple mesh uppers, should be replaced with a weatherproof pair. There is plenty of choice here. Whether traditional leather versions with soft spikes, modern sneakers with water-repellent textile or pure autumn golf shoes with a warm lining, there’s nothing that doesn’t exist.
Normal golf pants often soak up water at the hem when wet. Either specially developed rain pants or pull-on rain pants can help against this. Both have the same purpose: to keep you dry. While the pull-on rain pants are simply put on over the “normal” golf trousers in bad weather, special rain pants are developed for themselves. Waterproof pockets, a thicker lining against the cold and a water-repellent outer layer make these pants the perfect companion during inclement weather.
While in summer you should make sure your clothing is as breathable as possible, sweaters, jackets and windbreakers for autumn golf have to fulfill other tasks. Without functioning as their own sauna, they need to keep you warm but not make you sweat. Ideally, they should also be waterproof.
If your hands get cold quickly, you’ll be happy to have thick mittens or winter golf gloves. The latter are designed to be worn on both hands and simply left on between swings. The mittens offer a little more warmth, but have to be taken off for the swing, as you can’t grip a golf club correctly with them on.
Even the head has been taken into consideration, as rain-repellent caps or warm hats make playing golf in the fall easier.
Autumn golf – adjust your equipment correctly
But the game also changes with the conditions. The wetter the ground, the less balls roll out after landing. Golf balls also fly shorter when the air is cold and wet. The loss of length is exacerbated by the multiple layers of clothing you wear, as you don’t swing quite as fast as you would in summer with an airy polo shirt. So there’s no need to panic, worry or rush to the pro store because something is wrong with your clubs. Losing a few meters is completely normal.
However, you can also take advantage of this because it is easier to place the ball on the fairways from the tee box as the balls do not bounce. The wet ground is also noticeable when hitting into the green, as less roll on a drive on the fairway due to wetness also means that irons and wedges roll less after landing on the green. Target shooting is the order of the day.
From an equipment point of view, there are numerous changes that make playing in such conditions easier. Firstly, if possible, the carry length should be increased. The further the ball travels in the air, the better. Modern drivers, woods and hybrids can be adjusted at the hosel. 1°-2° more angle does not hurt in any case, the slightly higher spin and the higher flight curve allow a few extra meters in flight and make playing easier.
Those who rely on long irons in summer could possibly pack hybrids in their bag again. With the larger sole, they are more forgiving on wet ground and better at preventing “fat” hits. The flight/roll ratio of hybrids also tends to favor more flight compared to long irons, which also helps in wet conditions.
In the short game, wedges with a lot of bounce and thicker soles are better. They do not cut so directly into the ground and with the help of the bounce the wedges literally jump out of the ground again. This phenomenon is most noticeable in the bunker, but it also works on soft ground.
The greens are generally slower, duller and do not roll quite as evenly. Putters that are heavier have advantages over lighter models here. Professionals simply swap the weight inserts to increase the weight. All of these equipment adjustments were clearly visible at the Masters 2020, as it was played in the fall instead of April.
In the summer months when the green is lush, the sky is blue and visibility is clear, yellow, orange or light green golf balls are highly visible. For some, they offer a clear advantage in flight and when searching. In the fall, things are a little different. Here you should rather use the classic white balls, which are easier to recognize and find under these conditions.
You can also use little helpers to remove the unavoidable mud from the game ball and help you to make much better contact with the ball. In addition to the club towel, there are also pocket-sized golf ball cleaners that can be conveniently taken onto the green.
Autumn and winter rules
Winter greens, cart and trolley bans or tee recommendations – on many golf courses, playing in the fall or winter is the norm. If there is ground frost, you can’t get the tee into the ground properly. In some cases, plastic tees break off with almost every shot. Winter tees, which you can simply lay down, provide a remedy. The right length for driver, wood and irons should be available in different heights.
Be careful with trolleys! As some golf courses prohibit the use of trolleys in wet or muddy conditions to protect the fairways, you should take a look at the homepage before your start time to see what the current status is in this matter. Lightweight pencil bags are ideal for carrying, but also offer less space for clubs and other items.
