We test golf apparel the way we play. Hard, social, and honest.

Love Black Clover's caps but need more than a hat and a polo? Here are seven alternatives for 2026 that fill the gaps, from full golf wardrobes with trousers and rain jackets to fashion-led headwear.

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

1. Puma: Our top pick, for a full golf wardrobe from a UK store
2. TravisMathew: Best for a premium lifestyle look
3. Original Penguin: Best for heritage prints with free UK returns
4. Malbon: Best for fashion-led caps and statement pieces
5. Three Putt Golf: Best for golf streetwear and regular-fit polos
6. Pins & Aces: Best for print polos, fitted caps and headcovers
7. Lyle & Scott: Best for UK trousers, shorts and easy returns

Why People Look Beyond Black Clover

The clothes are where Black Clover's UK store runs thin, not the caps. It doesn't sell the brand's golf trousers or shorts, there are no waterproof jackets in the range, and we couldn't find a tour golfer wearing it in 2026.

The hats are still the reason to buy it.

Black Clover's best-selling Premium Clover 2 cap is £40 on its UK store, which delivers free on orders over £45.

However, if you want trousers, a waterproof jacket or a trimmer polo to go with the cap, you'll need another brand. Our Black Clover golf clothing review covers the brand itself in detail.

How I Tested

I've tested every brand on this list.

Black Clover sells a look as much as a cap, so I judged each brand on style first. Then I looked at what Black Clover's UK store can't give you: trousers, waterproofs and a trimmer fit. Prices are full prices, checked in October 2026.

Detailed Breakdown by Brand

Puma: Our top pick, for a full golf wardrobe from a UK store

Available on: uk.puma.com · Read our full Puma review

Key Features:

• Coastal Claret Golf Cap: £30
• MATTR Scallop Golf Polo: £50, with four-way stretch and fast-drying fabric
• 101 Pure Tailored Golf Pants: £55
• rainCELL Full-Zip Golf Jacket: £100, seam-sealed and made from 100% recycled material, excluding trims

Pros:

• What Black Clover UK lacks: Golf trousers and a seam-sealed rain jacket, alongside the caps and polos
• Easy UK buying: Prices in pounds with VAT included, free delivery over £50 and free 30-day returns
• Tour staff: Its tour page lists 43 pros, led by Rickie Fowler, who has worn Puma since turning pro in 2009

Cons:

• Poor Trustpilot score: Its UK profile scores 1.6 out of 5 from 83 reviews
• No exchanges: Return and reorder
• Sportier look: Less of a lifestyle feel than Black Clover

Verdict:

Puma is the easiest way to get a cap, a polo, trousers and a rain jacket from one UK store. It's sportier than Black Clover, but it covers the main gaps in Black Clover's UK range, with golf trousers and a rain jacket.

TravisMathew: Best for a premium lifestyle look

Available on: travismathew.com · Read our full TravisMathew review

Key Features:

• Heater Pro Color Block Polo: $109.95 in the US
• Open To Close Pant 2.0: $129.95, sold on softness and stretch, in waists from 28 to 42 inches with three leg lengths
• Cloud Quarter Zip 2.0: $149.95
• Snapbacks: Mostly $39.95 to $59.95, with college-licensed styles at $64.95

Pros:

• A close style match: Soft, stretchy lifestyle polos and a big range of snapbacks
• Stretch trousers: The Open To Close Pant 2.0 covers the trousers Black Clover UK doesn't sell
• Sizes: Polos and quarter-zips from S to 3XL

Cons:

• No UK store: Its US site only delivers to US addresses, and its UK link redirects back to it
• Trustpilot: 2.7 out of 5 from 33 reviews
• Sizing: TravisMathew warns the Open To Close Pant 2.0 can run up to a size large

Verdict:

TravisMathew is a close match for Black Clover at the premium end, with soft lifestyle polos and a stretch trouser to match. You'll need a UK stockist, because the brand doesn't ship here.

Original Penguin: Best for heritage prints with free UK returns

Available on: originalpenguin.co.uk · Read our full Original Penguin review

Key Features:

• Pete's Bow Tie Golf Polo: £55, a stretch polo in 58% polyester, 30% recycled polyester and 12% elastane
• Archive Jacquard Block Print Golf Polo: £60, in S to XXL
• Glenn Plaid Golf Trousers: £70, in waists from 30 to 38 inches

Pros:

• Free UK returns: 28 days on full-price items and 14 days on sale items
• Tour roster: Kristoffer Reitan joined Brian Campbell, Nico Echavarria, Max McGreevy and Johnny Keefer as an ambassador in February 2026

Cons:

• Poor Trustpilot score: 1.5 out of 5 from 63 reviews
• Sizes: Most of its golf polos stop at XXL, with only a few going up to XXXL
• No exchanges: Return and reorder

Verdict:

Original Penguin shares Black Clover's sense of fun, with prints, a mascot logo and a cheap snapback. It also sells golf trousers in pounds, which Black Clover's UK store doesn't.

Malbon: Best for fashion-led caps and statement pieces

Available on: malbon.com · Read our full Malbon review

Key Features:

• Trinity Dad Hat: £53, in 100% cotton twill
• Golf And Hunt Club Snapback: £64
• Performance Zip Raglan Polo: £130, in 85% polyester and 15% elastane
• Twill La Perla Pant: £220, in waists from 30 to 38 inches

Pros:

• Prices in pounds: Its site shows UK visitors GBP prices
• Fashion first: Headwear and pieces built around the look, like Black Clover's
• Tour signing: Malbon announced a deal with Jackson Koivun in June 2026, just before he turned pro, and he won in his third pro start

Cons:

• Duties on top: Malbon says import duties and VAT may be charged on delivery
• Returns: International returns are at your cost, with no exchanges or credit
• Price: Far dearer than Black Clover, with a £130 polo and £220 trousers

Verdict:

Malbon is the pick if Black Clover's caps feel too safe. It's much more expensive, and duties can arrive on top, so it's a treat rather than an everyday swap.

Three Putt Golf: Best for golf streetwear and regular-fit polos

Available on: threeputtgolfclothing.co.uk

Key Features:

• Polos: The Pin High at £33.99, with a little stretch, plus The Caddie and the Dogleg at £38.99, all 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, including Happy Place and Reckless Driving, plus plain Three on the Green basics

Pros:

• Free UK delivery: On every order, with no minimum
• Lifestyle feel: Golf clothes made for the clubhouse and the weekend too
• Polo prices: From £33.99, under the price of a Black Clover cap

Cons:

• No caps or trousers: Polos, tees, sweatshirts and hoodies only
• Cotton-led: Only the Pin High polo is a stretch blend
• Returns: 14 days, with return postage paid by you, and no exchanges

Verdict:

Three Putt doesn't make caps, so it won't replace your Black Clover hat. It does share the lifestyle feel, with regular-fit polos and heavyweight hoodies from a UK brand, delivered free.

Pins & Aces: Best for print polos, fitted caps and headcovers

Available on: pinsandaces.co.uk · Read our full Pins & Aces review

Key Features:

• Print polos: £49, such as the White Spades Polo Shirt, with four-way stretch and a built-in sunglasses holder
• Fitted Performance Hat: £29, in S/M, L/XL and XXL
• Performance Golf Hoodie: £69
• Headcovers: About 70 on the UK site, such as the £39 Black Boxing Glove driver cover

Pros:

• Official UK distributor: Prices in pounds with taxes included
• Sized caps: Fitted hats in S/M, L/XL and XXL, cheaper than Black Clover's
• Sizes: Men's polos from S to 3XL

Cons:

• Delivery: Free on orders over £100
• Returns: You pay the postage, and no return window is stated
• A thin range: No quarter-zips, jackets or waterproofs on the UK site

Verdict:

Pins & Aces brings Black Clover's playful streak at a lower price, with fitted caps and dozens of headcovers. It's thinner on clothing, so pair it with another brand for smarter trousers and outer layers.

Lyle & Scott: Best for UK trousers, shorts and easy returns

Available on: lyleandscott.com · Read our full Lyle & Scott review

Key Features:

• Technical Polo Shirt: £55, breathable and stretchy, in a regular shape, from XS to XXL
• Chino Trousers: £80, in waists from 30 to 40 inches
• Course Stretch Chino Shorts: £65
• Ventilated Performance Cap: £25

Pros:

• Easy returns: Free returns within 100 days, the longest here
• Well rated: 4.4 out of 5 from 1,723 Trustpilot reviews, the best score in this list
• UK trousers and shorts: The pieces Black Clover's UK store doesn't sell

Cons:

• One cap: Just a one-size ventilated cap
• No waterproofs: Its outerwear is water-resistant rather than waterproof
• Dearer trousers: The £80 Chino Trousers cost £25 more than Puma's golf pants

Verdict:

Lyle & Scott is the sensible partner to a Black Clover cap: chinos, shorts and a technical polo from a UK brand with 100-day free returns.

Summary

Black Clover makes some of the best caps in golf, but its UK store leaves you to find trousers, waterproofs and a trimmer polo elsewhere.

Puma is our top pick, because it covers the biggest gaps from one UK store. TravisMathew is a close match in style, Lyle & Scott is the easiest to return, and Pins & Aces brings the fun for less money.

Its "Live Lucky" golf caps. Black Clover is a Utah lifestyle brand built on hats, with polos, quarter-zips and golf trousers alongside. Its best-selling Premium Clover 2 cap is £40 on its UK store, and Topgolf made it the uniform partner for its 102 US venues in August 2026.

Can you buy Black Clover in the UK?

Yes. Black Clover has an official UK store that sells in pounds and delivers free on orders over £45. However, the UK store doesn't sell the brand's golf trousers or shorts, which are only on its US site, and it doesn't publish its delivery charge for smaller orders.

What brands are similar to Black Clover?

TravisMathew is a close match in style, with soft lifestyle polos and snapbacks, and Malbon is the fashion-led option for headwear. Original Penguin and Pins & Aces share Black Clover's playful side.

Which Black Clover alternative sells golf trousers in the UK?

Puma, whose 101 Pure Tailored Golf Pants are £55, and Lyle & Scott, whose Chino Trousers are £80 in waists from 30 to 40 inches. Original Penguin's Glenn Plaid Golf Trousers are £70. All three sell direct from UK websites in pounds, which Black Clover's UK store can't do for trousers.

Puma, whose rainCELL Full-Zip Golf Jacket costs £100, is seam-sealed and is made from 100% recycled material, excluding trims. Black Clover makes water-repellent layers but no waterproofs. Lyle & Scott's outerwear is described as water resistant, so Puma is the one to look at for a wet round.

Is TravisMathew better than Black Clover?

For clothing, it goes further. TravisMathew's polos, quarter-zips and Open To Close Pant 2.0 cover more of a golf wardrobe than Black Clover's UK store. However, it doesn't ship to the UK, so you'll need a UK stockist, while Black Clover sells direct from its UK store.

Do Black Clover polos run big?

Loosely, going by its US store, which calls its polo fit "loose and comfortable" and shows a 6ft 3in model in a Large. The UK store's polo pages give no fit line. If you prefer a less roomy polo, Lyle & Scott's Technical Polo Shirt comes in a regular fit, from XS to XXL.
