Golf Shirts: Solid or Pattern

cotton only?

Most that I own are 100% cotton. A few 50 - 50. Maybe refuse was too strong of a word. If I wear them, and I have and probably will again, I wear a cotton t-shirt underneath. I would not buy a 100% polyester shirt for myself.

Living in Georgia I know you're intimately familiar with humidity. Doesn't the humidity kill you wearing all cotton?
 
Solids are a lot easier to match to, and that’s appreciated for sure.

No. The more I sweat, the better I play. I stink this time of year. Haha

why solids for you vs the patterns?

It feels like I can wear them more often or with more hats and pants than anything with a pattern. I may just be in my head about it though.

it is a mental game, why not make scripting mental as well 🤷🏽‍♂️
 
@OITW I was wrong on my original 50/50 assessment. My shirt breakdown is 17 of 26 in favor of patterned. Since I’m not intimidated by the math of it, that’s 65% of my golf shirts that have a pattern. Of the 11 solids, 2 are black. Why do I need multiple solid black golf shirts? I probably found them on a really good deal and couldn’t pass them up.
 
Patterns. Kinda like black clothes, I feel patterns are slimming and look better on slightly overweight 55+ guys ;)
 
I'm more of a solids guy or subtle patterns.

Thank you for the most comprehensive answer in the thread.

The percentage is greater, but only 4 shirts isn’t a substantial increase.

You can’t beat a good deal

I would also like to add that I do not own any white golf shorts or pants. I don’t know why, I just thought it was an important fact to share.

Neither do I and I think it’s a wise decision lol
 
Mostly solids, but I do rock this beaut now and then:

Furthermore, I own 7 horizontal stripe shirts. 0 vertical stripe shirts. I’m pretty lean so the horizontal stripes aren’t a problem for me.

None here either. White is not a good color for me on the golf course, I take too many side excursions into places where I don't stay clean.
 
Patterns. I wore solids with a tie for way too many years.
 
Most are Puma and have some sort of pattern. Have a few solids but its probably an 85/15 split.
 
Solids and stripes, a few patterns but tough to pull those off.
 
My shorts/pants are solids, I prefer patterned tops to break the monotony. Prefer geometric, color blocking or abstract patterns to florals or animal prints.

That’s legit, what brand?

Footjoy. Pickings were slim when I ordered and their sizing recommendations are way off for me (said I should wear a L, but a S fits me best)
