I was wondering if anyone has any experience wearing Lacoste polos on the course?

I'm a big Lacoste fan, but until seeing a lot of the European Tour players wear them and along with Martin Kaymer, I had never thought of wearing them on course. So, any thoughts?

Thanks,

Chris

The best polos you can wear on the course imho. They are smart and they are comfortable. Do it!

Modern synthetic fabrics which wick sweat are much more suitable for golf.

I will never buy a cotton shirt again.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

I have plenty of Nike Dri-Fits, they are great I do agree, but I'm looking for something cleaner looking. Not all the Lacoste polo's are cotton, they have a full golf line as well.

I don't care if my shirts are Galvin Green, Lacoste or Tesco's Stone Bay Golf range. If they fit nicely, look good, don't restrict my swing and are comfortable I'll wear them.

They lacoste too much for my budget. I wait for cheap Nike Dri-Fits to go on sale then buy them.

Can't justify $80 for a polo shirt for work let alone on the course.

But if they are in your budget I say go for it.

As far as golf shirts go I try and wait for Macy's to have a sale on their IZOD dri-fits.  Their cotton/poly blends do not hold up but their dry fit material ones do.

Sometimes you can score them for around $17-20 and they retail for $50.  Just returned from the mall and they were on sale for $25 today.

Another good cheap alternative for golf shirts are Champion brand that can be found at Target.  They normally run $17-19.99 depending on style and are more conservative in color (great for office wear too).  They have both striped and solid colors.

We bowl once a week during our lunch break from work and I make sure to wear a dry fit shirt to reduce sweating and these fit the bill.  Numerous washings without any fading or wear and tear.

I just wish they would add more colors each season.  Pretty much the same colors a red, white, light blue, navy and black.

I go to TJ Maxx every now and then and load up on Nautica polos. They look great and can be had pretty cheap if you shop around and use coupons.

Just so people don't think I'm so rich, snobby person who is looking at buying $95 CND polo's. My girlfriend has a cousin who lives in France and she has some connections. So,after shipping I could get a few at about $45 CND each. As said, I normally pick up a lot of my golf clothing when I go to the US at Macy's or Marshals.

Thank's everyone for their help thus far, really is appreciated.

Lacoste really isn't that good quality of a shirt. Local high end men's store quit carrying them because of so many complaints.

They carry Southern Tide now and i find them to be much better shirts.

I remember my Dad went to China and came back with knockoff Lacoste polos....they were really high quality....can't say much for the real deal though, never worn one

Picked up two Walter Hagen hi-dry shirts for $50 on a two-for-one sale - priced out at $25 each.

Plan to use these for fancy events, and continue to wear cotton golf shirts otherwise.

For most rounds of golf, I wear golf shirts and slacks that have been in my wardrobe for several months. I rarely wear new stuff for golf.

Focus, connect and follow through!

I like the look of their shirts.  Ive got a couple my gf bought me.  I would never wear them golfing though because they are cotton.  I usually pick a new shirt every two weeks when I get paid.  I like Nike, Puma, Adidas and Under Armour the most.  I usually buy a shirt that will go with a certain pair of shorts I have or vice versa.

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
    • I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
