Golfers face a problem that is unique in sports. In the absence of uniforms, golfers must find apparel that not only are practical, but also good looking. All of the best courses still have dress codes. Fortunately, there are a large number of fine manufacturers to choose from. including Ashworth, Nike, Callaway, Bobby Jones, Fidra, Ping, Adidas, Greg Norman, and Tehama.

Nike Revive Junior Golf Shoes
My eldest wants a pair of golf shoes for Christmas. And these Nike Revive shoes look like just the trick. They look like a pair of sneakers (do people even use that term any more), but have the golf spikes. I’m more of a traditionalist when it comes to shoes, but I can’t imagine him in a pair of saddle shoes.
There’s just one problem. The boy is growing like the proverbial weed. Any shoe that I buy him in December is going to be too small by summer. My best bet may be to buy a pair two sizes too large.
Titleist Cart Mitts
The best way to stay warm while playing winter golf is to walk. But if you really must ride, you should get a pair of these cart mitts to keep your digits warm. The come in pairs and are made of a nice soft fleece.
TaylorMade 32 Degree Cold Weather Glove
TaylorMade golf has a new line of gloves, and among them are the 32 Degree Cold Weather Glove. I’ve haven’t yet seen them in the stores, but the information on the website is intriguing.
They’ve got a microfiber fleece back, and a full suede forefinger and palm. That should be both comfortable and soft. The palm is also insulated. Knitted cuffs cover the wrists, which are a hot spot—you lose a lot of heat there.
I’ll keep looking. Or maybe TaylorMade should send me a pair—large, please—for review. 
Adidas Torsion Euro Golf Shoes
Adidas Torsion Euro Golf Shoes
While I think that Adidas sometimes goes overboard with their three stripe logo, these are quite tastefully done. This is a very good looking golf shoe with a lot of tech built in.
The “torsion” in the name refers to the shoe’s Torsion system, which is supposed to control the rotation of the heel and foot with a mid-foot support system. Lugs in the sole are designed to optimize weight distribution by increasing ground surface contact.
The shoes also feature Adidas’ ClimaProof system—their version of GoreTex. While remaining waterproof, the material allows moisture to wick out to the surface of the shoe. That way, your feet stay dry inside and out.
Moisture control is especially important in cold weather golf. It’s ok if your feet sweat in the summer—the worse that can happen is that the dogs feel a little unconfortable. But moisture in the winter will cool off your feet, sapping overall body heat.
In winter, dry is the key.
