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.
