Quick Answer

Start with a moisture-wicking striped performance polo like Rhoback's Barts Heather Stripe, then add a lightweight mid layer for cooler rounds, and finish with a water-resistant outer shell for unpredictable spring weather.

Why Layering Matters for Spring Golf

Spring weather on the course can shift from chilly mornings to warm afternoons. Layering lets you adjust without carrying a bulky bag. A striped performance polo works as a versatile base because it's breathable and moves with your swing.

Step-by-Step Layering Guide

  1. Step 1: Start with Your Base Layer: Put on a striped performance polo like the Barts Heather Stripe. Ensure it's snug but not tight, with the collar crisp and untucked if you prefer a modern look. Avoid cotton polos that trap sweat. Check that the polo's fabric wicks moisture; damp fabric chills you in cool wind.
  2. Step 2: Add a Lightweight Mid Layer: Choose a thin, breathable sweater or vest (e.g., a quarter-zip pullover) that doesn't restrict your shoulders. Layer it over the polo, leaving the collar visible for a polished look. Skip heavy knits that bulk up. Test your swing in the mid layer; if it binds under your arms, it's too tight.
  3. Step 3: Top with a Weather-Resistant Outer Shell: Use a windbreaker or light rain jacket for wind and drizzle. Look for a shell with stretch panels or a relaxed fit to maintain mobility. Avoid stiff jackets that limit rotation. Unzip the shell between holes to regulate temperature; a full-zip front makes this easy.
