Our tips for a great women's UPF 50+ golf outfit

Are you a female golfer? Whether you're a beginner or an experienced player, we recommend a complete UPF 50+ outfit to keep your skin safe on the green. Even when it's not hot or sunny, UV rays are still present and can pose a risk to your health.

A long-sleeve UPF 50+ polo shirt is an essential piece for playing safely and protecting your upper body. You'll also need comfortable sun pants that let you move freely. If you prefer playing in a skirt or bermuda shorts, remember to apply SPF 50+ sunscreen at least every two hours and in generous amounts.

No matter if your hair is long or short, a wide-brim sun hat is highly recommended. It will protect your face, nape, and neck from harmful UV rays and help you keep your ball in sight.

Finally, consider protecting your hands with UV mittens and your eyes with sunglasses designed for golf.

Golf: yes, but with proper sun protection

For men who play golf, a good sun protective outfit includes a long sleeve UV polo shirt and sun protective golf pants. The key is to choose clothing that is comfortable during your swing. 

A wide brim sun golf hat will protect your face, nape, and neck from harmful rays while also helping you avoid glare so you can stay focused on your game. 

Also remember to protect your hands by wearing UV mittens or suitable gloves. If you prefer a short sleeve top, UV arm cuffs will help shield your arms and forearms. Finally, don't forget a good pair of sunglasses to safeguard your eyes.

Frequently asked questions

Why wear UPF 50+ clothing for golf?

Golf is often played outdoors under the sun for long periods, which increases your exposure to UV rays. UV protective clothing effectively shields your skin throughout the round, eliminating the need to reapply sunscreen on covered areas. In addition, these garments are made from lightweight, breathable, and comfortable fabrics that are perfect for repetitive movements and walking on the course.

Are UV protective golf clothes comfortable during a round?

Yes, these clothes are specifically designed to provide maximum comfort. The lightweight and breathable fabric helps regulate your body temperature and wick away sweat, which is essential for staying comfortable even in extreme heat. Their design is also tailored to support your movements, including your swing, without restricting your motion.

Do I still need to use sunscreen if I am wearing UV protective clothing for golf?

Sun protective clothing certified UPF 50+ provides optimal sun protection on the areas it covers. However, it's important to protect any uncovered areas with sunscreen (preferably SPF 50 and effective against both UVB and UVA), applied regularly and in sufficient quantity.
