What brand do you think is underrated in golf? Could be price, quality, designs, or anything else that makes you feel a brand flies under the radar more than they should?

For me I think it's pretty obvious but it's stitch. I know in the premium market peter millar and others get a ton of press and hype. To me I think stitch's quality is unmatched, they fit me very well, and they run sales. Here in Charlotte with the finance bros peter millar vests are a right of passage
 
Sunday Swagger. Their material is really good, I wish they had more designs than they do.
 
Not 100% golf but I've liked several items I have from Quince.I have their hoodie, a polo and a pant sand an active short. Used them all for golf and for work or workouts
 
I've been looking at Obla and Maelreg. I own a polo from Maelreg and a q-zip from Obla. Prices are good, they have a lot of designs, but don't know about the longevity. The only problem I have with the polo is that it's not very breathable, so on hotter days I'm sweating like crazy.
 
I have really liked the quality/feel of VRST clothes
These Lulu dupe pants are pretty close in quality. I love to get these on sale.
 
Galvin Green has done nothing but impress and inspire.

I wear their jackets for warmth in regular life and it goes well with my outfits.

Their trims are definitely more slim.
 
Sub70 apparel is hard to beat for the $$$

Much much less expensive than the pro shop brands and similar in quality.

PGA Tour brand can be bought very very cheap and is owned by Perry Ellis, who makes like 15% of all golf brands from what I read.
 
I'm a cheap bastard looking for full-time employment, but even if/when I get hired, I'll still be a cheap bastard...

Most of my golf shirts have come from Goodwill, and I really like the shirts by Bolle and Oakley.

I see them a lot at Going going gone and they made some good looking stuff. I have a couple pair of basketball shorts from them.

I have a bolle 1/4 zip that I've had forever and it's pretty solid.

I picked up a bunch of hoodies over thanksgiving week thru GG at $12 each

Marshall's usually has some good deals on Callaway clothes.

I’ve been impressed with Sierra and their selection. Also have had decent luck at good will. Recently found a nice Peter millar polo and a puma cloudspun polo

Turtleson getting a lot of love lately.

Have a guy who moved down last year from ny on my team and all he wears is turtleson. Think his dad's club has a lot of their stuff in the pro shop.
 
I didn't know where else to put this..... I don't know if these would actually be considered a golf brand, though they DO advertise very golf specific pants, which i was not aware of at the time of my purchase.... but here goes: Alberto
Anyone ever come across this brand of slacks?

My daughters wedding was this past summer. I needed a new suit (apparently all my other suits were the wrong colors) So.... off i went. New suit, with all the fixin's.... shirts, belt, ties, shoes... oh, wait.... what are these? Casual, yet sorta dressy pants? THOSE, i actually need. (I'm a guy who normally wears jeans to work every day due to the job).

Tried a pair on, they felt great... a tiny bit stretchy, flat front, like jeans... Nice. SO comfortable and i added a pair to the pile of my other purchases.... It was a pretty staggering tab which i expected given the suit and all the add on's.

Anywho... Wore the Alberto pants a couple of times since and they're the real deal... nicest, most comfortable casual pants i've ever owned... ever.... and i'm 60.

So.... Off i go to pick up a few more pair in a variety of colors. i felt like Al Czervik in the pro shop at Bushwood.... i'll take one of these, two of those... one of these. The dude rings me up, i look at the total (reflective of a discount) and nearly shat myself. But, damn..... they are so, SO comfortable.

btw....and more importantly, the wedding was a BLAST.
 
Pins and Aces makes really good polos. Easily some of my favorites in the closet.
 
Old Navy. Nothing fancy but good stuff for the price.

Sunday Swagger. Their material is really good, I wish they had more designs than they do.
I was surprised by the quality from Sunday Swagger. The materials are thicker and nicer than what I was expecting. One of the first places I look for new polos now.
 
Matte Grey remains way towards the top of every apparel list for me.

Fit is always the same. Quality is always amazing, I have 25ish polos with some as old at 10 years and no issues. Plus, they’re just really nice and Travis & Co have always taken care of their supporters, as well as HS programs too.

Stitch is my immediate answer.
I mentioned in another thread a while back about how I wear one of my polos constantly and it’s always around the same group for some reason. They must think I own 6 of them because it looks brand new.

I own several Maelreg polos and recently bought one of their qzips. The polos are well made, comfortable, fit nice, and have held up really well. Several of them are over 3 years old and still in my rotation. They also have a huge variety, whether you like prints, stripes or solids. They're plenty breathable, I wear them in the AZ summer heat and they're as good as, or better than, some of my other "big name" polos.

I've only worn the qzip a few times but like it a lot so far. The fit looks good, it's comfortable and plenty warm enough for cool mornings even though it's light and non-restrictive.

I don't mind paying more for quality if there's an obvious difference, but I'm not a label wh*re and won't pay $100 just for a name when I can get something just as good for $25. I'm not out to impress anybody with "who" I'm wearing.

I have one of their "Performance" polos. The material is a polyester and spandex blend, so I'm thinking it's more the material. I'd gladly get more but I'd look for a different material.
