The three pillars of the Titleist performance clothing line are mobility, comfort, and weather protection. The advertising material states the flagship shirts provide the following benefits … Light, stretchy, non-sticky, breathable, water-repelling, quick-dry, UV protection, humidity control (cooling), and of course is comfortable. From my perspective, it's the best shirt I have ever worn.

I have been a Titleist tragic since I was a kid. I think it started as a 14-year-old when I caddied in a couple of events during the Australian tournament summer series. In one of the prequalifying events, I can distinctly remember standing on the practice putting green before teeing off, surrounded by Titleist and Ping golf bags. While the Ping bags were cool it was the black and white Titleist staff bags with the shiny blades that caught my eye.

In the last few years, I have witnessed a renaissance. The revival of an article of golf clothing may seem trivial to some but the history and its importance in the game of golf cannot be denied. The spark was created by the CEO and President of Taiheiyo Club, Mr. Shun Han, who has modernized and made cool again a revered garment from a golfers wardrobe of decades past.

When you look at players like Hogan, Palmer, Seve, and more recently Adam Scott you cannot deny they were, and still are some of the most stylishly dressed players who have graced our game. All of these players have worn Footjoy Classics and as the saying goes … shoes maketh the man.
