The Best Polos for Women
Upgrade your look and elevate your (style) game.
When it comes to building out a capsule golf wardrobe, finding the perfect polo should be your first order of business.
There are very few fashion pieces that are synonymous with a sport. For instance, sneakers go hand-in-hand with basketball, hats and caps rule the baseball diamond—but polos? Those are reserved for the links.
Whether you’re a beginner golfer or a true stick and ball savant, you’re always looking for that go-to golf shirt to have in your arsenal. The one polo that fits you just right. The one with the incredibly soft, yet durable fabric that’s also breathable and non-restrictive. Oh, and it has to maintain its shape and color no matter how many wash cycles you subject it to…like we said…the perfect polo.
Finding the perfect polo is a science of sorts. Your choice of polo says a lot about you (much like your choice of glove or ball). Are you a classic, crisp white button down polo kind of golfer? Are you dressed to the nines in safe-yet-stylish microprints? Or are you the bold, daring type willing to experiment with color and texture no matter where it takes you?
With all of that in mind, we must also consider the minor elephant in the room: where do women go to buy golf polos?
Ladies, our male counterparts may have it a bit easier than we do—with what seems to be an endless supply of golf shirt options—but don’t fret! Gone are the days of being forced to buy golf apparel that adheres to the “shrink it and pink it” mentality. While golf is still vastly male-centric, this list will guide you in the right direction, leading you to finding your new favorite item.
From brands you may already know and love, to introducing you to some new players—we’ve curated this list to ease your style qualms so that you look and feel effortlessly chic during your next round.

Adidas Women’s Ultimate365 HEAT.RDY Polo Shirt
The brand known for its three little stripes has also made a name for itself for being wildly reliable when it comes to golf apparel and accessories (we’re big fans of the Samba golf shoes over here…more on that later!!). There’s nothing overtly special about this polo from Adidas, but we are rather fond of the colorways. It’s also just really a good option for high quality fabric technologies without breaking the bank.

J.Lindeberg Karrie Polo
If you’re not one to shy away from bold colors or patterns, look no further than Swedish brand J.Lindeberg. Known for its sleek, futuristic designs, JL is on the trendier side of golf apparel (depending who you ask, but just trust us). The Karrie Polo boasts a gradient pattern of the JL bridge monogram that’s so captivatingly cool. We’re big fans of the styling choice as shown on the model. When going for a more “out there” staple piece like this polo, opting for a monochromatic fit is the best way to avoid any fashion faux pas!

Lacoste Women’s Slim Fit UV Protect Stretch Golf Polo
Following a similar storyline as Wilson, Lacoste was super popular in the late 2000s and into the 2010s, disappearing for a bit, but making a storming return to mainstream fashion. Nevertheless, Lacoste hasn’t swayed from its perfected art of a good polo—with the addition a few little tweaks to make it more wearable for the course. Channeling the classic, preppy vibe that makes us all nostalgic, this is a polo crafted with golfers in mind. Lacoste swapped the cotton fabrication for a performance jersey polyester and anti-UV technology that make it great for golf without making it an overly technically feeling piece (the sweet spot).
