The U.S. population is roughly 295 million, of which, nearly 187 million are adults. An estimated 27 million of those adults play golf. Of these, 12.8 million golf eight times or more per year. As your caddie, I am trying to show you the line to the hole. If you look at the demographics of the adult golfers per the National Golf Foundation, 36 percent are managers and professionals with an average age of 40, average income of $71,000 and a net worth of $689,000.

Logo Golf Apparel Trends

When it comes to the latest design and fabrication trends in logo golf apparel, remember golf is most often played in warm to hot weather over the course of four-plus hours. Logo golf apparel must address the player's need to stay comfortable in changing temperatures while helping enhance his/her performance on the course. Staying dry and comfortable will help make golfing more enjoyable than playing in a sweat-soaked shirt for five hours.

One of the trends in logo golf apparel is a large selection of technical fabrics offering golfers the promise of a comfort. The fabrics extend to all apparel categories. New and improved tech materials have made windshirts quieter and lighter. Wind-sweaters are better at keeping golfers warm and dry. UV-coated fabrics can keep the sun's harmful rays from burning your skin.

The changes in logo golf apparel aren't limited to advanced technical fabrics. New silhouettes and fits have been created with the understanding, as noted above, that golf is a sport. There's not one size or silhouette to fit all. The generous oversized fit is the most common, but the slimmer more European fit is becoming increasingly popular, especially with those under 35. Finally, the half-sleeve mock neck trend worn by Tiger Woods started a couple of years ago. Logo golf apparel companies have updated this with the use of technical fabrics and great new colors.

And speaking of color, brights are back. White and navy will always sell, but some die-hard golfers are looking for something new to add to their wardrobe. Many of the new tech fabrics lend themselves especially well to bright colors, since their physical properties hold color better than cotton. Additionally, the fabrics, if properly cared for, can be quite durable. Accents are also important. More emphasis is being put on trims, zippered plackets, self-fabric collars and other eye-catching details that might make a particular shirt stand out.

Golf-inspired logo styles can be found off the course too due to coporate casual trends. Cotton blends and non-cotton performance fabrics are also available in a wide variety of price points and styles.

Golf Promotional Products Trends

Trends in golf promotional products include still longer tees because the popularity of bigger-head drivers continues to grow. The longer tees are needed to prop the balls up higher.

Golf promotional products are always popular as tournament giveaways. Also popular this year are premium clubs and logo golf balls.

For logo golf balls, Titleist is coming out with a new version of its Pro V1 and the Calloway golf ball that Phil Mickelson plays with is getting a lot of attention. Also look for the Wilson Hope Ball, a logo ball specially produced with a clear or pink cover. Wilson makes a cash contribution to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation for every purchase.

Another golf promotional product getting attention because of the pro tour is a rescue club - part iron, part wood. It has the length of a 2-iron but the head of a wood.
