Galvin Green

New, super tech-packed DRYVR hoodie coming out for spring called "Amos." Features include: 100% waterproof, windproof, extremely breathable, blue sign approved fabric, elastic drawstring at the hem, adjustable cuffs, smooth ‘slide and glide’ lining for movement, chest pockets, front pocked, shaped sleeves, and lightweight, stretch Gore-Tex C-knit fabric technology. But our favorite part of the Amos is the hood. It has an extra rain-protection peak at the top that allows rain to drip off away from your head, which is key especially when putting. It will come in navy, black and gray, sizes S to 3XL. $529, galvingreen.com

Ralph Lauren

There are so many great golf and leisure pieces to look forward to this year from Ralph Lauren, but the biggest new feature to look for is all the men’s polos have stitched-in collars. This ensures the collar holds its shape, and when worn with a sweater or crewneck over top, it still looks sharp no matter what. Also the prints have been quieted down and made smaller, making them more versatile and easy to wear especially transitioning on and off the golf course to multiple functions. Another of our favorite standouts is the RLX men’s knit polo with herringbone pattern and a full-zip knit tech vest. Both have very sporty yet sophisticated looks that will add a welcome variation to any golf wardrobe.

J. Lindeberg

There was a big display of red, white and blue colors at the J. Lindeberg booth as the Scandinavian brand revealed the outfits for the USA golf teams at the Paris Olympics in France this year. The collection pays homage to the American flag using the same color palette, and artistic stars and stripes form a bold pattern complimented by solids that will be on polo shirts, compression tops, tracksuits, half-zip sweaters, joggers, golf bags, hoodies and more for players, caddies, coaches and staff. Fabrics made with ClimaCool and 37.5 will help keep the athletes cool and comfortable, while UV50 provides sun protection, and Lycra offers high-flexibility and stretch.

Cocal

Traveling all the way from outside Venice, Italy, this was the brand’s first PGA Show appearance. Its collection of men’s and women’s golf apparel is inspired by a strong passion for outdoor sports, nature and animals. The name Cocal means seagull in local dialect, and serves as the brand’s logo appearing in prints and on hats. Giovanna Novello is the founder and runs the business with her husband, but it was her mother who influenced her love of fashion. Giovanna danced as a young girl but her mother couldn’t find anything but black dance wear, so she started making pieces for her daughter. The colorful pieces caught enough attention that a business was born. When Giovanna was older she became an equestrian and was, again, faced with limited wardrobe selections, so she decided to design and make her own. Friends urged her to carry the same functional styles over to golf clothing, and the Italian-made collection came to life. cocalwear.com

Swing Control

The company brought in former Fila designer Nancy Robatelle six months ago, and her mandate was to take the fall/winter collection into a more golf-centric direction. She created an abstract flower print with black background on fabric designed to show movement. The colorful print shows up on all the pieces either just on a shirt placket, or collar, or all over. Another standout are the women’s Ponte fabric pants with side stripes that are thick and have a great drape. The heart-shaped back pockets are a cute, different detail, and comes in a cream color and a rich, dark olive that Robatelle says "is the new black." Matching quilted jackets with ribbed knit backing and a scuba mesh track jacket make complete, very versatile outfits.

Puma

Puma's fall collection turns to more elevated basics with textured fabrics and softer neutral colorways, a trend we saw throughout the Show. One example is a half-zip, ribbed knit hoodie that looks like a turtleneck with a hood, so it offers a layered look in one piece. An all-over mini bubble textured hoodie worn under a quilted vest creates a comfortable, contemporary style that’s a notch above the look a typical cotton hoodie offers.

For footwear, the Phantomcat Nitro was all the buzz at the show and will be released on Feb. 15. The shoe is designed, developed and tested alongside tour athletes, and promises to offer an unrivaled traction experience bringing tour-level performance to every golfer. New proprietary Flexspike cleats have unrivaled traction, and a nitro foam heel delivers high rebound with lightweight responsiveness. Full-grain leather has a premium feel and has a one year waterproof guarantee, and a new anatomically shaped last ensures a more consistent fit.
