Best Hot Weather Polo

Current favorite is a callaway opti-dri. it is just significantly more breathable than anything else I've bought and I only paid like $8 during a sale at academy.

These are tough to beat. There's a certain Johnnie-O material that I think is the absolute top, but not sure how that one is labeled.

Some of those pga tour brand polos breathe pretty well. And they’re fairly cheap

So all of them are 85-95% polyester. Then you have elastane, spandex, or something else making up the remainder.

It's obviously all plastic, but the elastane feels less plastic-y I guess? Just doesn't feel like it sticks to you.

My wife sells Smith & Quinn dresses in her store, and one day the rep was like hey does your husband wear golf polos? He sent me a couple of their lightweight ones and they are easily my favorite. They're 85/15 poly/elastane. Now I just flip through the ordering book and am like "Add these polos to the dress order, wife." Who knows how they'll hold up long term, but they are lightweight and don't wrinkle as bad as some other golf polos so I'm wearing the shite out of them right now.

Holderness and Bourne is the same blend, and they're regarded as one of the top golf polo brands.

One cheap poly/elastane shirt is the Puma Cloudmattr. They're more like 93/7 or something. They wrinkle quick if you don't get them out of the dryer still warm, but are fine otherwise.

For the record, I don't like Rhoback. They fit good, but they're spandex blend and stick to you bad when sweating.

Have never tried a Johnnie O

I would not recommend Peter millar or anything expensive in south la summers

You sweat so much it ruins expensive shirts with sweat and sunscreen

I just but on sale Calloway or the like just like you do

Anything with over 1% poly is no go for me

Wow, I have converted to all poly. It's the most comfortable material in history. I doubt I will buy anything cotton ever again, and my bamboo experience has not been great.

Anything with over 1% poly is no go for me. I have been a TASC homer for the last several years. Shirts breathe really well in both a breeze and dead heat and, it's a local company Louisiana company.

From their website on the Cloud Polo:
48% micro modal / 47% micro polyester / 5% elastane

All for supporting local, and will probably try one of these out, but they definitely got some poly in them.

I think you're going to have to go to Sid Mashburn to get a 100% cotton shirt being peddled as a golf polo...... And there's nothing wrong with dressing like Cashmere Keith. Sid Mashburn is really nice stuff, but he still looks a little hot out there in the dead of summer. Looks clean as shite during the cold weather tournaments.

The armachillo boxer briefs by daluth are great,

Check out bayoubirdie.com local company and their shirts are very light weight and good quality

Nice Louisiana/LSU themed shirts too.
I have 10 or so. Love them.
