Women's golf pullovers

V-neck, half-zip or hoodie: which top for the course

The V-neck, like that of the Galvin Green Donya, lets the collar of the polo show and adheres to the most classic dress codes of clubs. The half-zip or snap button placket, like the Puma Boulder, adjusts with the holes: you open it while walking in the sun, and close it at the next tee. The zip hoodie Under Armour Drive protects well from the wind at the practice range, but some courses accept it badly in competition. The round neck, which is more relaxed, is suitable for friendly games and training days.

Colourful retro or Swedish sobriety: Dani Dazey and Galvin Green

The Puma x Dani Dazey collaboration owes its style to a designer based in Los Angeles, inspired by Palm Springs, blending references from the 1960s and 1970s, intarsia knits and bright colours. In contrast, Galvin Green, a brand founded in 1990 in Växjö, Sweden, is known for its layering technical clothing, and brings this rigor into pullovers with clean lines. The Gamblin Golf pullovers borrow their names from gambling terminology: The Matchplay refers to the match play format, The Parlay and The House give a nod to bets between partners.

Breathability and layering under the technical sweater

A golf sweater works between two layers: it must retain warmth without trapping the perspiration as you move towards the greens. Technical polyester sweats, like the adidas Ultimate Tour, wick moisture away and dry quickly, while a mixed wool knit retains heat better when stationary. The Mizuno Crested, adorned with the logo of the Japanese brand, slides over a long-sleeved polo. Choose a fit that covers the waist with arms raised, and wash these items at low temperatures, without fabric softener, which clogs technical fibres.

Good deals

Good bargains can also be found in good deals, promotions, clearance, sales, Black Friday. The new arrivals showcase the latest collections, and items shipped within 24 hours are prepared and sent out within 24 hours. The highlights of the year follow a consistent order: Black Friday at the end of autumn, the year-end holidays, winter sales, French Days in spring, then summer sales and back-to-school.

Frequently asked questions

What size golf sweater should I choose?

Stick to your usual size if the sweater is worn over a simple polo. To layer a thermal base layer, check the fit at the shoulders and the sleeve length in address position, with arms outstretched towards the ball.

How do I store a knit sweater without distorting it?

Fold it flat in a drawer or on a shelf rather than hanging it up, as the weight of the knit stretches the shoulders on a hanger. A sachet of lavender or cedar keeps moths away from wool sweaters.

Can I wear a golf sweater without a polo underneath?

The strictest clubs require a collar: so under a V-neck or round neck, you wear a polo. A high neck or zip-up sweater, which forms itself a collar, is accepted on most courses.

How do I wash a wool golf sweater?

Choose the wool program at a maximum of thirty degrees or hand wash with special detergent, without scrubbing. Press in a towel to remove excess water, then lay the sweater flat to dry, away from direct sunlight.

At what temperature should I wear a sweater on the course?

Below around fifteen degrees, or as soon as the wind picks up, a sweater becomes useful. Early morning tee-offs and the end of rounds in autumn are when it’s most helpful, even if you have to tie it around your waist in the afternoon.
