About Golf Shirts

Polo shirts became so popular on golf courses; people started calling them golf shirts. Although the words "golf shirt" and "polo shirt" are used interchangeably, and the term "polo shirt" is more popular, some people prefer the term golf shirts.

Golf shirts offer the professionalism of a dress shirt and the comfort of a t-shirt. When customized with embroidery or an embroidered patch and given as gifts or giveaways, they are called promotional golf shirts. Some of the most recognized brands of golf shirts are: Ashworth, Nike, Adidas, Ping, Greg Norman, Tiger Woods, Izod and Arnold Palmer.

Golf Shirt Terms

Self-fabric Collar: A collar that is constructed from the same material as the body of the shirt. 

Placket: The part of a shirt where it fastens together.

Raglan Sleeves: Sleeves set with a diagonal seam from the neck to the armpit.


Rib Knit: A textured knit with the appearance of vertical lines, is very elastic and retains "memory".

Cuffs: The bottom of the shirt sleeve is called the cuff. Polo shirts have self-fabric cuffs or rib knit cuffs. 


Tape: In apparel terms, “tape” is a narrow, woven strip of fabric. Better quality polo shirts have a “fully taped neck” which means tape is sewn on the inside of the neck, covering the seam between the collar and the body. This helps to retain the structure of the shirt, and makes it more comfortable in addition to absorbing some perspiration.
 Tape is also sewn along the inner side vents to help keep the shirt tucked in.

Side Seams: Some polo shirts are “body knit,” which means that the body is knitted as a tube, and does not have side seams. As a rule, polo shirts with side seams have a more fitted shape.

Side Vents: These are slits at the bottom of the side seams and are either taped along the hem or double-needled stitched. They are a fashion detail that aids the ease of movement and when taped on the outside of the shirt at the top of the vent, they help keep it tucked in.

Extended Tail: On some polo shirts, the back is longer than the front to help keep it tucked in.

Double Needle Stitched: Means that the seam or hem is stitched with a double row of needles resulting in two parallel rows of stitches. A double needle stitched hem or seam is stronger than a single, in addition to giving the shirt a more refined look.

Horn Tone Buttons: Imitation horn buttons.

Pearlized Buttons: Plastic buttons that appear to be made of pearl.

Mercerized:  The process of treating cotton yarn or fabric by it is immersing it in a caustic soda solution and later neutralized in acid. This process causes a permanent swelling of the fiber, resulting in an increased sheen on the surface of the fabric, increasing its ability to absorb dyes and greater strength.
