Everyone’s got a favorite polo, a favorite pair of shorts. I’ve tried my fair share of brands, too. The problem? I want the best of the best. And for good reason: I want you to wear the best damned golf apparel money can buy.

There are plenty of fish in our proverbial polyester pond and cashmere canals. I’ve fished and fished for the perfect pair of shorts and polo and have finally found them.

Welcome, fellow golfers, to summer golf apparel bliss. In this case, “bliss” is really spelled “KJUS.”

You know KJUS (or maybe you don’t). They’re that premium rainwear brand that every Scottish person I’ve met wears. And they’re dang good at it. You won’t find a better rainsuit than the Pro 3L 3.0.

That said, most people don’t know that KJUS makes killer polo shirts and magnificent bottoms. Seriously, they’re good.

So good that I’m willing to declare KJUS the most underrated apparel brand in golf. If you haven’t yet tried a piece of KJUS golf apparel, let this be a sign to ditch your crusty, cotton-pique polo and pick up something comfortable, cool and classy.

I’ve got a few summer-ready outfits to share but before I do you need to understand why KJUS apparel is so good. It’s because KJUS isn’t actually an apparel company at all but rather an innovation company.

“It’s just a polo. There’s nothing you can do to make a polo better!” some might exclaim.

To that, KJUS says “hold my beer!” (It’s probably a craft IPA from some little brewery on Pearl Street).

A quick rundown of KJUS’s core technologies will help prove my point.

Core Tech

Here are some innovations and technologies you’ll find sprinkled throughout KJUS’s comprehensive apparel line.

Mineral Circulation. Certain KJUS garments contain Natural Minerals woven into the fabric to promote recovery and blood circulation. Eco-Coffee. KJUS uses recycled coffee grounds in some garments to enhance performance and be more eco-friendly. This process gives each garment unique anti-odor and moisture-wicking properties. Cooling. Perhaps the most important piece of any summer golf gear is cooling. KJUS uses innovative yarn structures to promote evaporative cooling.

These aren’t the only technologies KJUS relies on to innovate in the golf apparel space. They are, however, the most important when it comes to dressing for summer golf.

I’d be remiss not to mention some of the other cool stuff they do, like lining cold-weather garments with graphene to absorb heat and transfer it throughout the fabric to eliminate cold spots. Or the volcanic mineral lining used in the front pocket of certain garments to keep your hands dry in the rain. The Storm Jacket is so warm that I had to take it off walking around Times Square in December.

Seriously, KJUS isn’t an apparel company. They’re an innovation company that happens to make some pretty darn good apparel.

What does one need to dress properly for summer golf? Simple. You’ll need a breathable top, comfortable bottoms and a sweat-resistant headpiece. Last I checked, KJUS has all of that.

Breathable Top: KJUS Lee Polo

You won’t find a better $99 polo. The KJUS Lee Polo (available in solids or stripes) is as comfortable as they come. It has everything you’re looking for in a sweet summer polo.

Moisture absorbent UPF 30+ protection Quick drying Stretch for days

Honorable Mention: KJUS Sanford Polo. I get it, this polo isn’t cheap. But it’s got that fancy eco-coffee technology I mentioned earlier. Translation? This cashmere polo won’t just look cool. It will help you stay cool on and off the course.

Comfortable Bottoms: KJUS Iver Shorts

The Iver short is a staple in my wardrobe for its comfort and stretch. Seriously, this is the most stretchy pair of shorts I own (and I own a lot of stuff from that athleisure brand that has a citrus fruit in its name). Besides being light and stretchy, the Iver shorts are also water-resistant in case you happen to hit a monsoon in the middle of your round.

Water-resistant 4-way stretch Quick drying 19 color options

Honorable Mention(s): KJUS Active Shorts. If you want something more sporty, go for the Active Shorts. They’re perfect for the range or the gym, thanks to that special mineral circulation technology I mentioned earlier.

KJUS Ike Texture Shorts. Another staple in my closet, these shorts are just as stretchy as the Iver shorts but have a texture exterior that provides a more elevated look and feel.

Sweat-Resistant Headwear: Trade Wind Cap

Without a sweat-resistant cap, you’re left fighting your perspiration instead of taking on that back pin location. The Trade Wind Cap is an excellent cap to keep you cool, comfortable and protected from the harmful rays of the Sun.

Quick-drying Breathable Unisex fit

More Innovative Garments to Consider

Cool Recovery Midlayer: Made with that special cooling technology, this recovery-focused Midlayer is great for those slightly breezy morning summer rounds. Inverness Polo: Another polo made with KJUS Eco-Coffee tech, this comfortable cashmere garment is another one to add to the wardrobe. Active T-Shirt: Thanks to the mineral circulation technology, this gym shirt is the perfect range companion. It makes beating ball after ball no sweat at all!

No Longer a Secret

KJUS is one of the best-kept secrets in golf apparel. Well, it was one of the best-kept secrets. The next time you need to upgrade your summer golf wardrobe, KJUS deserves a spot on your hitlist.
