Personalised Golf Clothing: The Complete Guide for Events, Teams & Societies

Printed and Embroidered Personalised ClothingChoosing the right personalised golf clothing can help create a professional, coordinated look for a corporate golf day, golf society, charity tournament, golf team or golf trip.

But choosing golf clothing for a group is very different from simply buying an individual golf shirt.

You need to consider the type of event, the people wearing the clothing, the time of year, your branding, whether you want embroidery or printing, the number of garments required and, of course, your budget.

So what should you actually order?

Should you choose personalised golf polos, caps, gilets or midlayers? Is embroidery or printing better for your logo? What works best for an autumn golf day? And how many garments do you need?

This guide explains how to choose personalised golf clothing for your event, team or society and how to create a coordinated look that players will be happy to wear both on and off the course.

Key Takeaways

  • Personalised golf clothing is ideal for corporate golf days, golf societies, teams, charity events and golf trips.
  • Golf polos are one of the most versatile options for creating a coordinated branded look.

What Is Personalised Golf Clothing?

Personalised golf clothing is golf apparel customised with a company logo, golf society crest, team branding, sponsor artwork, event logo, name or another design.

It is commonly used by businesses, golf societies, clubs, teams and event organisers that want players to have a consistent and professional appearance.

At Event Caddie, we specialise in personalised golf clothing and teamwearfor events, businesses, golf societies and groups. Our clothing can be customised using embroidery or printing, depending on the garment and artwork.

Our range includes:

We also offer personalised clothing from leading golf and sportswear brands, depending on the garment and requirements. Event Caddie’s wider business specialises in customised golf merchandise, clothing and event branding for corporate golf days, charities, golf societies and businesses.

Personalised Golf Clothing Is for Teams — Not Individual Retail Purchases

One important difference between Event Caddie and a conventional golf clothing retailer is that we specialise in personalised clothing orders for teams, groups, events and organisations.

You aren’t simply buying an individual Nike or FootJoy polo from a retail shelf.

You’re choosing a garment and having it professionally personalised with your branding.

Minimum order from just 4 garments

Our minimum order for personalised golf clothing starts from just 4 garments, making it suitable for smaller groups as well as larger events.

For example, you could order:

  • 4 embroidered polos for a small company golf team
  • 8 personalised polos for a golf society
  • 12 branded garments for an event team
  • 20+ garments for a corporate golf day
  • Larger quantities for tournaments and organisations

Product-specific minimums can vary, so always check the individual product before ordering.

This low minimum makes personalised golf clothing accessible whether you’re organising a small society group or a much larger corporate event.

Why Choose Personalised Golf Clothing for an Event?

Golf clothing can do much more than make your players look coordinated.

The right clothing can help create a consistent visual identity, strengthen your brand and give players something useful that they can continue wearing after the event.

For corporate golf days

Corporate golf clothing can reinforce company branding while creating a professional appearance for employees, clients and guests.

For golf societies

Matching golf society clothing creates a sense of identity and gives members clothing they can wear throughout the season.

For golf teams

Personalised golf teamwear helps players look coordinated and can create a stronger sense of team identity.

For charity golf events

Branded clothing can help promote the event while creating opportunities for sponsor visibility.

For golf trips and stag weekends

Printed or embroidered clothing can become a memorable keepsake featuring the group name, destination, date or individual player details.

Which Personalised Golf Clothing Should You Choose?

There isn’t one perfect garment for every golf event.

Your choice should depend on:

  • The type of event
  • The time of year
  • The weather
  • Who will wear the clothing
  • Your budget
  • Your branding
  • How often the clothing will be worn
  • Whether you need one garment or several layers

1. Personalised Golf Polo Shirts

Personalised golf polos are one of the most popular choices for corporate golf days, golf societies, teams and tournaments.

They’re versatile, practical and suitable for both playing golf and wearing away from the course.

Golf polos can be personalised with:

  • Company logos
  • Society crests
  • Team logos
  • Event branding
  • Sponsor logos
  • Names or other approved artwork

They work particularly well for:

  • Corporate golf days
  • Golf societies
  • Charity golf events
  • Golf teams
  • Company teams
  • Golf trips
  • Tournament teams

What should you look for in a personalised golf polo?

Fabric and performance: Look for breathable, comfortable and moisture-wicking fabrics that can be worn throughout a round of golf.
Fit: Consider men’s, ladies’ and different fit options when ordering for a mixed group.
Colour: Choose colours that work with your company or society branding.
Quality: If the clothing will be worn regularly, consider the quality, comfort and durability of the garment rather than focusing solely on the initial price.
Personalisation: Consider whether embroidery or printing will produce the best result for your logo.

Event Caddie’s existing Best Custom Golf Polos guide goes into greater detail on choosing polo styles, fit, branding and performance, so we don’t need to duplicate that information here.

2. Personalised Golf Caps & Hats

A personalised golf cap is one of the simplest ways to create a coordinated branded appearance.

Caps are particularly useful for:

  • Corporate golf days
  • Golf societies
  • Charity events
  • Golf teams
  • Event staff
  • Sponsor branding

A personalised cap can also be paired with an embroidered polo to create a complete but relatively simple event outfit.

For groups working to a tighter clothing budget, caps can provide an additional branded item without requiring every player to receive several garments.

3. Personalised Golf Gilets

A custom golf gilet is particularly useful when temperatures start to fall but players still need freedom of movement.

Gilets can be worn over a branded polo or midlayer, making them a flexible option for spring and autumn golf.

They work particularly well for:

  • Corporate golf days
  • Golf societies
  • Teamwear
  • Autumn events
  • Club teams
  • Event staff

A simple autumn combination is:

Personalised polo + branded gilet

This provides a coordinated appearance while adding another layer when temperatures drop.

4. Personalised Golf Midlayers & Quarter-Zips

Midlayers and quarter-zips are another versatile choice for cooler conditions.

They can be worn over a polo or underneath a jacket, allowing players to adapt as the weather changes.

Popular options include:

  • Performance midlayers
  • Quarter-zips
  • Fleece layers
  • Long-sleeve golf tops

For societies and teams playing throughout the year, a quality midlayer can be a particularly useful investment because it isn’t restricted to one event or season.

5. Personalised Golf Jackets & Wind Tops

For autumn, winter and changeable weather, outerwear becomes increasingly important.

A personalised golf jacket or wind top can provide additional protection from:

  • Wind
  • Cooler temperatures
  • Light rain
  • Changing weather

They’re particularly useful for:

  • Autumn golf days
  • Winter societies
  • Tournament teams
  • Golf club staff
  • Corporate teams
  • Event staff

A practical layering system for UK golf is:

PoloMidlayerJacket

6. Personalised Golf Fleeces & Knitwear

Fleeces and knitwear provide additional warmth for colder conditions.

They’re particularly useful when the clothing needs to look professional both on and away from the golf course.

They can be suitable for:

  • Golf club teams
  • Corporate teams
  • Premium societies
  • Winter golf events
  • Staff clothing
  • Regular golfers

If clothing will be worn repeatedly, comfort, quality and durability should be considered alongside the initial purchase price.

7. Personalised Golf Rainwear

British golf doesn’t always come with ideal weather.

For autumn and winter events, personalised golf rainwear can therefore be a practical addition to your clothing order.

Rainwear can be particularly useful for:

  • Tournament teams
  • Golf societies
  • Corporate teams
  • Golf club staff
  • Outdoor event staff

When selecting rainwear, consider functionality as well as branding, including waterproofing, breathability and freedom of movement.

Embroidery or Printing: How Should Your Golf Clothing Be Personalised?

Once you’ve selected your garments, the next decision is how your golf clothing should be personalised.

At Event Caddie, golf clothing can be customised using embroidery or printing, with the most suitable option depending on the garment, artwork and desired finish.

Embroidery

Embroidery is particularly popular for:

It creates a raised, professional finish and is particularly well suited to straightforward company logos, society crests and team branding.

Printing

Printing can be particularly useful for:

  • Detailed artwork
  • Multiple colours
  • Larger graphics
  • Event designs
  • Names and nicknames
  • Golf trips
  • Stag weekends
  • More casual clothing

There isn’t one method that is always better.

The right choice depends on your garment, logo, design, event and intended use.

We’ve already created a dedicated guide covering this decision in much greater detail, so if you’re deciding between the two:

Embroidery vs Printing for Golf Apparel:  Which Should You choose In 2026?

That article also explains how the two methods tend to work across different event types and garments.

Which Is Better: Embroidery or Printing?

As a simple starting point:

Requirement Usually best suited to
Simple company logo Embroidery
Premium corporate appearance Embroidery
Golf society clothing Embroidery
Polo shirts Embroidery
Caps Embroidery
Detailed artwork Printing
Multiple colours Printing
Large graphics Printing
Golf trips Printing
Stag weekends Printing
Names and nicknames Printing

The final choice should always consider the garment and artwork together.

How Many Personalised Golf Clothing Items Do You Need?

You don’t necessarily need several garments for every player.

Instead, consider what the clothing needs to achieve.

4–8 garments

Suitable for:

  • Small company teams
  • Small society groups
  • Event staff
  • Smaller golf groups

8–20 garments

Suitable for:

  • Golf societies
  • Corporate teams
  • Charity events
  • Larger groups

20+ garments

Suitable for:

  • Corporate golf days
  • Tournament teams
  • Larger societies
  • Major events

These are useful planning ranges rather than fixed packages.

Event Caddie’s minimum order starts from 4 garments, although the exact minimum can vary depending on the individual product.

When deciding quantities, remember to allow for:

  • Different sizes
  • Men’s and ladies’ fits
  • Spare garments
  • Event staff
  • Sponsors
  • Late additions

What Personalised Golf Clothing Is Best for a Corporate Golf Day?

For a corporate golf day, the aim is usually to create a professional but practical appearance for employees, clients, guests and sponsors.

Personalised clothing can form part of a much wider branded event experience, alongside golf balls, player gifts, welcome packs, prizes and event branding.

A strong starting point

Embroidered polo + branded cap – Our Bundles offer a saving, with Callaway, Nike, Adidas and Galvin Green polo and cap bundle offers.

For a premium event

Premium embroidered polo + gilet

For cooler weather

Polo + midlayer + jacket

The right combination will depend on your audience, event format, season and budget.

If you’re still planning your corporate golf day, our How to Plan a Golf Day: Checklist and Tips guide covers the wider process, from choosing a venue and organising players to sponsorship, merchandise and event-day planning.

For ideas on what to give players when they arrive, see our guide to What to Put in a Corporate Golf Day Welcome Pack, which covers practical branded products that can be included alongside personalised clothing.

And if you’re looking for ways to create additional branding opportunities for your business partners, our Golf Event Sponsorship Ideas guide explores ways to give sponsors greater visibility throughout the event.

Event Caddie offers personalised golf clothing from recognised golf and sportswear brands, depending on the garment and requirements.

What Golf Clothing Should a Golf Society Order?

Golf societies often want clothing that members will continue wearing throughout the season rather than something designed solely for one day.

Good choices include:

  • Embroidered society polos
  • Personalised golf caps
  • Gilets
  • Midlayers
  • Golf jackets

For a society, versatility and repeat wear are particularly important. A polo that can be worn on its own in summer and underneath a gilet or jacket in autumn can provide much more value than a garment designed for one specific occasion.

Personalised clothing can also form part of a wider society event package. For example, a society polo could be combined with branded golf balls, tees, towels, ball markers and competition prizes to create a more complete experience for members.

If you’re organising a society event, Golf Society Essentials guide is great for ideas and our Golf Society Prize Table Ideas guide explores ways to combine traditional competition prizes with fun and memorable awards.

For more ideas on putting together branded golf merchandise for your players, see our Complete Guide to Golf Merchandise.

And if you’re still planning the event itself, our How to Plan a Golf Day: Checklist and Tips provides a useful starting point for organising the day from venue selection and player management through to prizes, gifts and event branding.

What Personalised Golf Clothing Works Best for Charity Events?

Charity golf events offer several opportunities to use branded clothing.

You could consider:

  • Event polos
  • Sponsor-branded clothing
  • Printed event shirts
  • Caps
  • Teamwear

Clothing can also provide an additional opportunity for sponsors to gain visibility.

What Golf Clothing Works Best for Golf Trips & Stag Weekends?

Golf trips and stag weekends often allow for a more creative approach.

Printed golf clothing can work particularly well when you want to include:

  • Names
  • Nicknames
  • Dates
  • Destinations
  • Group names
  • Large graphics
  • Humorous designs

A personalised polo or other garment can become a memorable keepsake from the trip rather than simply another item of event merchandise.

What Personalised Golf Clothing Is Best for Autumn & Winter?

Seasonality should play an important role when choosing golf clothing in the UK.

A polo might be ideal in summer, but autumn and winter events require greater flexibility.

Autumn golf

Polo + gilet

or

Polo + midlayer

Colder conditions

Polo + midlayer + jacket

Wet conditions

Polo + midlayer + rainwear

Layering gives players the ability to adapt as temperatures and conditions change throughout the day.

This is particularly useful for golf events where players can spend several hours outdoors.

Premium or Budget Golf Clothing: What Should You Choose?

The cheapest garment isn’t necessarily the best value.

Consider:

Who will wear it?

Premium client entertainment may justify a higher-quality garment.

How often will it be worn?

If society members or employees will wear it throughout the season, comfort and durability become more important.

What impression do you want to create?

Quality clothing can contribute to the perceived professionalism of your event.

What else are you buying?

Your clothing budget needs to work alongside custom golf balls, gifts, prizes, welcome packs, signage and other event costs.

Our Golf Day Budget Guide looks at how to approach your overall event spend and where different elements can make the greatest impact.

Personalised Golf Clothing as Part of a Wider Event Package

Clothing doesn’t need to be an isolated purchase.

Some of the strongest event packages combine clothing with other branded golf products.

Corporate golf day

Embroidered polo + branded golf balls + towel + welcome gift

Golf society

Society polo + cap + ball marker + competition prizes

Charity event

Branded polo + sponsor merchandise + golf balls + fundraising materials

Golf trip

Printed polo + personalised accessories + golf gift pack

Combining products can create a more consistent experience while giving organisers additional opportunities to reinforce branding.

Our Complete Guide to Golf Merchandise explores how clothing, golf balls, accessories, welcome packs, prizes and other merchandise can work together.
