the main brands i would think of to buy golfing shirts would be
ASHWORTH - i love buying from ashworth because the material is always nice and they do a very nice cutting that has female curves
CALLAWAY - i have found some really nice pieces, but not in every season
ANIKKA SORENSTAM - i find them unsuitable for my frame and size, probably because they're not designed for asians
ADIDAS - i don't quite fancy the three stripes, don't ask me why and although i like the material, i haven't been able to find a nice one that is of dryfit material
PUMA - i find their current designs very sweet. they have that frilly, lacy feel and feminine sleeves although i also think the sizing doesn't suit me
NIKE - haven't seen a nike top that catches my eye yet even though i've also been on the lookout for one in a dryfit material. they have a new shorts out that is nice but $100 is not within my budget yet
OAKLEY - they do have a golfing clothes range that has nice designs but i haven't dared to try any of them on yet because they price is a bit steep
VERMOGEN - this is one brand that i recently discovered tucked away in Takashimaya. i find their berms really nice. some think that it is a bit long and high cut. i think the length gives me a more refined classy look because it sits just above the knees. the shirts seem a bit dubious because they have this design/print on most of them that would usually be seen as ah beng but i find the material very soft
i find that it is especially difficult to find nice golfing clothes for girls because of our main parts eg chest and butt
so often i try a top that fits my shoulders but is too tight around the chest and if i up a size, the shirt looks so baggy around my waist that it doesn't seem right. or another problem is the length of the sleeves. too short and it accentuates the big part of the arms, too long and it looks funny too. then these problems interact with each other. it's really a challenge to find a shirt that satisfies all my requirements. since golfing shirts are not that cheap, it's only correct that i search for something that suits me so i would feel my best when playing golf right !
these days, it seems like most of the golfing apparel brands are selling skirts for girls. while it is more feminine, i find it a bit restrictive. i don't mind those that are shorts but have a layer in front to make it look like a skirt (this layer should be more like a flap)
maybe thats the fun of searching for golfing clothes. when you find something that you really like, make sure to buy it.
today i had a very good bargain at the arnold palmer for ladies shop. i love it when i find good golfing clothes that fit me and are on discount. ok i just love discounts haha. i didn't even know there was such an outlet and i wouldn't have thought that they sell golfing clothes. they sell polo tees and other casual wear. the salesgirl didn't seem to think that alot of people buy them to play golf. i feel kinda excited to have discovered this brand heehee
to all those with the same challenge as me, i wish you all the best in finding the perfect piece ! don't give up because it is out there !
