Father’s Day is coming up quickly.  It’s time to write up a golf apparel script for dad.  Below is my list of Father’s Day apparel suggestions which are guaranteed to make pops the hippest, sharpest dressed golfer in his group. Click the links within the text to go to the original golf blog post.

Beltology_Silver_Spoon_Belt_2

Golf Belt

Beltology Silver Spoon Belt

Don’t let dad get caught with his pants down. Get him a nice golf belt from Beltology.

Dunning Solid Mesh Contrast Collar Signal

Golf Shirt

Review: Dunning Solid Mesh Contrast Collar Signal Polo

Dunning is one of the best golf apparel brands available. Want to class it up for dad? Get him a Dunning polo like this incredible piece.

Golf Shorts

Tattoo Golf Shorts

Classy, comfortable, stylish shorts which come with a tiny edge in the form of the classic skull and golf club bones logo. Welcome to Tattoo Golf. Golf shorts unlike any other.

FootJoy City - Black/Mocha

Hybrid Golf/Street Shoes

FootJoy City Shoes

These hybrid golf shoes are good looking enough to wear to a wedding or out on the town, yet still perform great on the golf course.  Dad will dig ’em.

Dunning Stretch Thermal Striped 1/4 Zip

Outer Top Layer

Dunning Stretch Thermal Striped 1/4 Zip

Dunning’s golf apparel products are SO good I couldn’t resist putting another on this Father’s Day gift guide.  When it is a little too chilly to roll with just a golf polo, this Dunning 1/4 Zip Thermal will take the edge off the cold but not the golf swing.

Kentwool_Graduate_Compression_SockSocks

Kentwool Graduate Compression Sock Review

Kentwool is hands down the best golf sock maker in our solar system and perhaps beyond. I haven’t received any sock samples from outside our solar system, so I can’t be 100% sure though.

Love the color scheme… click to enlarge

Ah it’s the best time of year, for Masters themed golf gear and apparel.

Its no secret that I’m a big fan of Kentwool.  They make fantastic wool socks.  I’ve talked about Kentwool quite a bit here on HOG.  Check out my Kentwool Tour golf socks review and my Kentwool 19th Hole dress socks review.

I’m sporting my second pair of Masters themed Kentwool socks today.

A sock for the ages.

A sock like no other.

Is it this sock’s time?

Yes (sock) sir!

Amen sock.


Kentwool KW Series Men’s Sport Socks

Following yesterday’s FIVE birdie round I felt I’d have enough experience in the new Kentwool KW Series Men’s Sport Socks to post my review. Obviously such great golf play was not a result of having great golf clubs, a great golf ball, or executing shots. It was all attributable to the socks. That’s my story and I’m sticking with it.

About the KW Men’s Sport Socks

Kentwool as one might deduce, makes wool socks. I’ve been wearing Kentwools for several years now. I will NOT wear cotton socks again after wearing Kentwools! The KW Men’s Sport Socks are a slight departure. They’re part wool and part bamboo. The great thing about bamboo is that it is probably one of the most eco-friendly and replenishable materials in the world. It grows seriously fast.

The bamboo allows the same performance and moisture wicking, but in a thinner and lighter sock.

Colors

This sock is currently available in two colors: black/blue (pictured) and natural grey.

Sizes

The KW Sport comes in medium, large, and extra-large sizes.

On The Course

The KW Sport is extremely comfortable. The last two rounds I’ve played with them the temperatures were 94 and 92 degrees. No sweat, literally. Feet dry and comfy.

Conclusion

$20.95 is not cheap for a pair of socks. As the saying goes, “you get what you pay for.” This show is well worth the price of admission. Great performance, moisture reduction, comfort. Fabulous.

These would make a great Father’s Day golf gift!   Snag a pair of these for dad.  If I’m your dad (or even if you want me to be), snag me another pair!

Big money game coming up later this morning. Normally I wouldn’t take any chances with new gear but this is the best golf sock maker on this planet, Kentwool. Today’s sock script is their new Men’s Sport edition.

These are a little departure for Kentwool. Normally their socks are made from 100% wool. These are a combination of bamboo and wool. I’ve tried bamboo socks from other brands over the years and liked them. Bamboo is one of the most eco-friendly materials in the world.

Father’s Day is coming up soon.  I’d definitely consider Kentwool socks for a great Father’s Day golf gift.  I happen to be a father, so take the hint…

After sufficient golf rounds with these I’ll post a full review.  Stay tuned.
