Classics Score in Golf Fashions

Like comfort food, this summer see a return to classics, although for many, they have never left. With companies like Vineyard Vines rolling out 100 percent cotton polos with fresh color twists and Bobby Jones bringing on classic browns and blacks with very Casablanca-smart looks, you can be in your happy place if you stick to what you know works for you.

But this year, environmental-friendly and high-tech fabrics share the spotlight with more traditional materials like cotton, cashmere, silk and wool, albeit often laced with some tech materials for better performance.
