Spring has arrived, and summer is just around the corner, which means golf season is upon us.
That also means it’s time to update your wardrobe. Finding new polos to add to your on-course rotation is some of the most fun a golfer can have in the shopping space, but there are hundreds of different options from dozens of apparel brands. It can be a real chore sifting through all of it to find the best style, fit and feel for you, so Golfweek is here to help.
We already highlighted the season’s best golf shoes last month — now it’s time to get your closet refreshed with some new shirts. Check out Golfweek’s best golf polos of 2026.
Adidas Core Heather Golf Polo
Soft knit fabric and a signature “Aeroready” moisture-wicking technology makes the Adidas Core Heather Golf Polo a great addition to your polo rotation at a very reasonable price. It’s made from 100% recycled polyester and features a heathered finish that adds style and softness.
Holderness & Bourne Perkins Shirt
Holderness & Bourne has established itself as one of the leading brands in classic-style golf apparel, with a wide variety of luxury polos with simple, sharp designs. H&B’s Perkins Shirt provides all of that in the fashion department while still remaining an elite on-course polo, complete with moisture-wicking technology and UPF 50+ sun protection.
TravisMathew Continental Drift Golf Polo
Most golf polos these days are at least 90% polyester, but if you like a more classic feel, TravisMathew’s polos are the ones for you. Most of the brand’s shirts are made from a nearly equal fabric blend of polyester and cotton. That’s the case with the Continental Drift Polo, which features a sharp two-tone chest stripe for a little extra style in your outfit.
Nike Par Dri-Fit Golf Polo
Nike’s Dri-Fit technology is a staple in athletic apparel due to its sweat-wicking properties and breathable, lightweight feel. That’s all included in the Nike Par Dri-Fit Golf Polo, which features the brand’s retro Nike Golf logo on the left chest, blending vintage style with modern comfort for every round.
Peter Millar Jubilee Performance Jersey Polo
It couldn’t be a “best polos” list without at least one entry from Peter Millar, and this year we’ve chosen the Peter Millar Jubilee Performance Jersey Polo. Made from the brand’s signature Summer Comfort fabrication, this shirt will keep you cool and dry on even the warmest days out on the links.
J.Lindeberg Lionel Polo
J.Lindeberg brings some Scandinavian flair to this list with its Lionel Polo, complete with a breathable mesh fabric and a durable ribbed collar. The European-style makes for a slimmer, more athletic fit, while the brand’s bridge logo on the shoulder provides a unique design.
Brooks Brothers Performance Series Micro Stripe Jersey Polo
You might associate Brooks Brothers more with formalwear than golf apparel, but they were actually a trailblazer in activewear and they offer a wide variety of high-quality golf polos, including the Performance Series Micro Stripe Jersey Polo, complete with quick-dry fabric and a perforated collar stitch for increased breathability.
Levelwear Sapphire Polo
Levelwear is making a name for itself in golf with several PGA Tour pros repping their apparel these days. One of our favorite items from the brand’s offerings is the Levelwear Sapphire Polo, which features a durable self-fabric collar that will stay sharp no matter how much you wash it and all-over print design that will make your golf outfit pop, all at a price that won’t break your bank.
Stitch Golf Solid Jersey Polo
There are few brands (if any) that match the sheer volume of polo options that Stitch Golf has to offer, and new this year is the simple and clean Solid Jersey Polo. Made from stretchy, lightweight fabric, this shirt is sure to keep you looking polished and feeling fresh. And if you’re seeking total turnover in your polo rotation, you should check out Stitch Golf’s mystery bag, which comes with three polos from previous collections for a reduced price.
Johnnie-O Ralph Performance Featherweight Polo
Johnnie-O is widely regarded as a premier brand among avid golfers, and they took lightweight to the next level with their Ralph Performance Featherweight Polo. This shirt boasts a fabrication that is 30% lighter than any other polo Johnnie-O makes, and the subtle, all-over print makes for a stylish design that is sure to draw some compliments.
B. Draddy Cool Larson Polo
If you’re looking for modern comfort without sacrificing a classic look, B. Draddy’s Cool Larson Polo might be the shirt for you. It features the brand’s signature Cool Fabric Technology, which promises a “cool to the touch” feel during even the hottest days out on the golf course.
Ralph Lauren RLX Performance Tour Pique Knit Polo
Cotton has become less popular in the golf space in recent years, but Ralph Lauren is still making excellent polos that provide the cotton look and feel without sacrificing performance technology that golfers need in an on-course shirt. The RLX Performance Tour Pique Knit Polo is one of those. It’s made from a nearly 50/50 blend of cotton and polyester and still features lightweight, moisture-wicking properties to keep you cool and dry.
