7 Best ATSG Golf Alternatives in 2026 | Ranked
Updated on: October 28, 2026
Author: Graeme
We test golf apparel the way we play. Hard, social, and honest.
Like ATSG's prices but not the sizing roulette or the return postage? These seven alternatives each fix at least one of ATSG's catches in 2026, from polos up to 4XL to free returns and delivery beyond mainland Britain.

How We Review Golf Clothing Brands
Every review on the Three Putt journal is written by Graeme Whiles, the founder of Three Putt Golf Clothing. As a competing brand, we have an obvious conflict of interest. We take this seriously and address it directly in our review methodology, which explains how we assess brands consistently regardless of whether they compete with us.
Top Picks
- Stromberg: Our top pick, with polos up to 4XL and free in-store returns
- Island Green: Best for a £24.99 polo in XS to 4XL
- adidas: Best for a big-name polo with free 30-day returns
- Three Putt Golf: Best for polos and golf streetwear with free UK delivery
- Castore: Best for a British brand with free returns and Northern Ireland delivery
- Under Armour: Best for a 60-day free returns window
- Druids: Best for bargain polos up to 4XL, shipped beyond mainland Britain
Why People Look Beyond ATSG
Most of ATSG's catches are about getting the right size home. Some buyers say it runs small, the size run stops at XXL, you pay the postage on returns and exchanges, and it only delivers to mainland Britain. Support is email only, too.
The prices are still hard to argue with.
Its Essentials Core Golf Polo is £30 at full price, its sales cut that further, and it scores 4.6 out of 5 from about 500 Trustpilot reviews.
However, if any of those catches matter to you, each brand below fixes at least one of them. Our ATSG golf clothing review covers the brand itself in more depth.

How I Tested
I've tested every brand on this list.
ATSG's weak spots are size and returns, so that's where I looked hardest: how far each brand's size run goes, what it says about fit, and what it costs to send something back. Prices are full UK prices, checked in October 2026, and I've said where a brand's sales cut them hard.
Detailed Breakdown by Brand
Stromberg: Our top pick, with polos up to 4XL and free in-store returns
[ADD IMAGE HERE: a Stromberg golf polo with the Bandit waterproof jacket. Suggested file name: Stromberg_Golf_Clothing.png. Add alt text describing what the photo shows.]
Available on: americangolf.co.uk · Read our full Stromberg review
Key Features:
- Polos: £29.99 to £49.99 MRRP at American Golf, with most at £34.99, such as the Knebworth Golf Polo
- Knebworth fabric: 90% recycled polyester and 10% elastane, with UPF 50+, made from recycled plastic bottles
- Hampton Stretch Golf Trousers: £49.99 MRRP, in waists from 30 to 46 inches with short, regular and long legs
- Bandit Waterproof Golf Jacket: £99.99 MRRP, rated 20,000mm, with fully taped seams, in S to 5XL
Pros:
- Sizes: Polos up to 4XL, with the Bentham Stripe polo up to 5XL, though American Golf's size guide only covers S to 2XL
- Free in-store returns: Take it back to any American Golf store
- Wider delivery: American Golf delivers to Northern Ireland for £7.99, which ATSG doesn't
Cons:
- One stockist: American Golf sells it exclusively, online and in its stores
- Postal returns: Online orders can go back within 30 days, but you pay the postage
- Less cachet: It's a retailer's own label rather than a golf name
Verdict:
Stromberg costs about the same as ATSG at full price and has polos up to 4XL. Its sales cut prices hard too, and you can try it on and return it for free in an American Golf store.
Island Green: Best for a £24.99 polo in XS to 4XL

Available on: islandgreengolf.co.uk · Read our full Island Green review
Key Features:
- Performance Polo Shirt: £24.99, with four-way stretch and a mesh back yoke, in XS to 4XL
- Other polos: Short-sleeve styles up to £34.95 at full price, most of them sized to 3XL
- Tour Stretch Tapered Trousers: £44.99, in waists from 30 to 42 inches with short, regular and long legs
- Waterproof Stretch Jacket: £69.99, with fully taped seams
Pros:
- Lower prices: The Performance Polo costs about £5 less than ATSG's £30 Essentials polo
- Bigger sizes: The Performance Polo runs from XS to 4XL
- Free returns: Its returns page says all returns within 30 days are free
Cons:
- Mixed messages: Its refund policy says the buyer pays return postage, so check before you order
- Delivery: £3.99 unless you spend over £70
- Few reviews: No Trustpilot profile and no ratings on its own site, though three of its Amazon UK polo listings score 4.3 to 4.4 stars from 412 to 625 ratings
Verdict:
Island Green undercuts ATSG on the polo and goes up to a 48-inch chest in its Performance Polo, against 45 inches for ATSG's XXL. Check the returns terms before you order, because its own pages disagree on who pays the postage.
adidas: Best for a big-name polo with free 30-day returns

Available on: adidas.co.uk · Read our full adidas review
Key Features:
- Adi Performance Polo Shirt: £35, in breathable pique knit jersey, from XS to 3XL
- Ultimate365 Solid Polo Shirt: £40, in stretchy, soft single jersey, from XS to 4XL
- Dearer polos: The £50 Ultimate365 Mesh Climacool, up to £85 for the Originals Twistknit Button Up
- Recycled content: adidas says both the Adi Performance and Ultimate365 Solid polos are made with at least 70% recycled materials
Pros:
- Free returns: Within 30 calendar days of receiving your order
- Size guidance: Its polo pages say they're true to size and recommend your usual size
- Well rated: The Adi Performance Polo scores 4.8 out of 5 from 377 reviews on adidas UK
Cons:
- Delivery strings: Free for adiClub members, or over £40 for everyone else (£3.99 below)
- Poor Trustpilot score: About 1.2 out of 5 from more than 2,800 reviews for adidas.co.uk
- Delivery gaps: No delivery to British Forces Post Office addresses or the Channel Islands
Verdict:
adidas costs a little more than ATSG, but its pages tell you to order your usual size, and returns within 30 days are free if they're wrong. The Ultimate365 Solid polo also goes up to 4XL.
Three Putt Golf: Best for polos and golf streetwear with free UK delivery

Available on: threeputtgolfclothing.co.uk
Key Features:
- Polos: The Pin High at £33.99, with a little give, plus The Caddie and the Dogleg at £38.99, all regular fit in S to 3XL
- Tees: 305gsm heavyweight cotton from £29.99, cut relaxed with a longer body
- Hoodies and sweatshirts: 430gsm hoodies from £49.99 and 400gsm cotton sweatshirts from £42.99
- Designs: Original golf graphics, such as Contours and Happy Place, plus plain Three on the Green basics
Pros:
- Free UK delivery: On every order, with no minimum
- Polo prices: The Pin High is £33.99, a little above ATSG's Essentials polo
- Polo sizes: Up to 3XL, with the Pin High's 3XL measuring 50 inches round the shirt
Cons:
- No trousers, caps or outerwear: Polos, tees, sweatshirts and hoodies only
- Returns: 14 days, with return postage paid by you, and no exchanges
- Cotton-led: Only the Pin High polo is a stretch blend
Verdict:
Three Putt doesn't fix the returns problem, since you pay the postage on its returns too. However, its polos cost about the same, run up to 3XL and come with free UK delivery on every order, where ATSG charges £4.99 under £50.
Castore: Best for a British brand with free returns and Northern Ireland delivery

Available on: castore.com · Read our full Castore review
Key Features:
- Men's Golf Essential Short Sleeve Polo: £48, with Castore's AerTek technology, which it says wicks moisture away from your skin
- Dearer polos: The LVS Engineered Knit, Pique Stripe and Elevated Lifestyle polos at £60
- Men's Golf Trousers: £65, with ProTek water-repellent technology, in waists from 28 to 38 inches
- Men's Golf Shorts: £50
Pros:
- Free returns: On every order, with a standard 28-day window
- Wider delivery: Northern Ireland gets the same £3.95 standard delivery as the mainland, free over £60
- Well rated: 4.6 out of 5 from 10,748 Trustpilot reviews, across all of Castore
Cons:
- Dearer: Polos cost £48 to £60 at full price, against ATSG's £30 to £50
- Sizes: Golf polos stop at 2XL, the same as ATSG
- No exchanges: Return for a refund and reorder
Verdict:
Castore is the British alternative that's easier to buy from, with free returns, Northern Ireland delivery and a strong Trustpilot score. You pay about £18 more for the polo, though, and the sizes still stop at 2XL.
Under Armour: Best for a 60-day free returns window

Available on: underarmour.co.uk · Read our full Under Armour review
Key Features:
- UA Tech Polo: £35, light and loose, from XS to 3XL

- Bigger trouser sizes: Waists up to 44 inches, against ATSG's 38
- Free delivery: For members, or for guests on orders over £50
Cons:
- Poor Trustpilot score: 1.3 out of 5 from 1,345 reviews for underarmour.co.uk
- No exchanges: There's no online exchange service, so return and re-buy
- Polo sizes: The Tech polo stops at 3XL
Verdict:
Under Armour is the safety net for golfers who are never quite sure of their size. You get 60 days to send things back for free, and its trousers go up to a 44-inch waist.
Druids: Best for bargain polos up to 4XL, shipped beyond mainland Britain

Available on: druids.com · Read our full Druids review
Key Features:
- Tour Polo 2.0: Light, breathable and stretchy, listed at £40 and selling for £22 when we checked in October 2026
- Men's polos: Listed at £30 to £45, though every one was selling for less when we checked
- Sizes: Polos from S to 4XL
- Prices: In pounds, with VAT included at the UK rate
Pros:
- Bigger sizes: Polos up to 4XL, two sizes beyond ATSG
- Wider delivery: Ships well beyond the UK mainland, including Ireland, the Isle of Man and Jersey
- Well rated: 4.0 out of 5 from 76,445 Trustpilot reviews
Cons:
- Returns: 21 days from delivery for a refund, exchange or credit note, though its older refund policy says a refund means emailing Druids
- Return postage: Paid by you, or a £10 collection charge
- No recycled claims: We found no sustainability information
Verdict:
Druids is for bargain hunters who want bigger sizes and delivery beyond mainland Britain. Its returns are fiddly, though, so check the size chart before you order.
Quick Comparison Grid
| Brand | Best For | Price Range | Sustainability |

Summary
ATSG makes good-value golf basics, but the sizing can run small, the size run stops at XXL, and you pay to send things back.
Stromberg is our top pick, because it matches ATSG on price, goes up to 4XL and lets you return things free in store. Island Green has the lowest full-price polo, adidas, Castore and Under Armour all offer free returns, and Druids ships to dozens of countries beyond Britain.

Frequently Asked Questions About ATSG
Is ATSG a good golf brand?
For the money, yes. ATSG is a young British brand from Stockport with polos from £30 at full price, regular sales and a 4.6 Trustpilot score from about 500 reviews. The catches are sizing that some buyers say runs small, a size run that stops at XXL, return postage paid by you and delivery to mainland Britain only.
Who is behind ATSG golf clothing?
The brand says it was founded by Gaz Beadle, and its website is run by Chilli Apparel, a Stockport clothing company that has been going since 2005. ATSG sells men's golf polos, trousers, layers and caps through its own site, and you'll also find it at Next and Function18.
Does ATSG golf clothing run small?
Some buyers say so. Several Trustpilot reviewers recommend sizing up, though others call it true to size, and ATSG says its newer regular-fit polos are less fitted than its earlier ones. If you're between sizes, adidas's polo pages say they're true to size, and Under Armour gives you 60 days to return for free.
Does ATSG deliver to Northern Ireland?
No. ATSG only ships within mainland Britain, so Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man and the Isle of Wight are left out, and it doesn't ship abroad. Castore delivers to Northern Ireland at the mainland price, and American Golf (Stromberg) charges £7.99.
Which ATSG alternative is best for bigger golfers?
Going by the size charts, Druids and adidas. Druids' 4XL fits chests of 54 to 57 inches and adidas's 3XL fits 51.5 to 56, against 45 inches for ATSG's XXL. Island Green's 4XL fits 48 inches. Stromberg lists polos up to 4XL, but American Golf's size guide only covers S to 2XL.
Which ATSG alternatives have free returns?
adidas (30 days), Castore (28 days as standard) and Under Armour (60 days) all offer free returns. Stromberg is free if you take it back to an American Golf store, though posting it back costs you. Island Green's returns page says returns are free, but its refund policy says the buyer pays the postage.
Is ATSG cheaper than Stromberg?
At full price, they're close. ATSG's polos cost £30 to £50 and Stromberg's are £29.99 to £49.99 MRRP at American Golf. Both brands run big sales, so the price you pay depends on the week: Stromberg's Knebworth polo was £14.99 against a £34.99 MRRP when we checked.
