Protection Against All the Elements

In my mind, Jordan Spieth put Under Armour on the golf map. Without all of his victories last year and all of the exposure he brought them, I doubt they would have become so big so fast. And their success continues in spite of the poor year Jordan had this year.

under-armour-fall5For the fall of 2016, US has apparel technology to keep you warm, keep you cool, keep you dry and keep you ready while on the golf course. Here are just a few pieces we liked.

The 4-way stretch fabric in the Zinger Women’s Golf Polo allows you ladies to swing away without worrying about pinching and binding, while Under Armour’s Moisture Transport System wicks sweat and evaporates it quickly. With 30+ UPF protection, you’re well protected from the sun and the anti-odor technology keeps you smelling fresh too. The self-collar adds a distinguished look and the soft anti-pick, anti-pill fabric produces a clean, snag-free finish. The Zinger Women’s Golf Polo is available in sizes XS-XXL and in several colors including True Gray Heather, Black, Heron, Academy, Cobalt, Pink, Verve Violet and Crystal. Retail Price is $59.98.

Under Armour really excels in their outerwear.

Cold weather gear is another of Under Armour’s strengths. The ColdGear Infrared Match Play Tapered Leg Mens Golf Pants features Under Armour’s Storm technology which repels water without sacrificing breathability.
