7 Best Jordan Golf Alternatives in 2026 | Ranked

We test golf apparel the way we play. Hard, social, and honest.
Love the Jumpman but not the £74.99 polo? The seven Jordan Golf alternatives below, ranked for UK golfers in 2026, run from Nike's own Velocity polo at about half the price to sneaker-led brands with golf trainers and rain jackets.

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
- Nike Golf: Best overall alternative, with Dri-FIT polos from £39.99
- adidas: Best for Samba golf shoes and trousers in three leg lengths
- G/Fore: Best for luxury golf trainers, with UK duties included
- Malbon: Best for collab-led golf streetwear
- Three Putt Golf: Best for heavyweight golf streetwear from a UK brand
- Puma: Best for a sporty look on a budget
- Under Armour: Best for trouser sizes and 60-day returns
Why People Look Beyond Jordan Golf
Jordan Golf's problem in Britain isn't the style. It's the price and the range: polos start at £74.99, Nike UK lists less than half of the US clothing range, and there's no waterproof jacket in the UK line-up. UK returns also last 30 days, against 60 in the US.
The shoes are still the stars.
The Air Jordan 1 Low G averages 4.7 out of 5 from 370 reviews on Nike's site, though many were collected through promotions. Tony Finau has also worn the Jumpman head to toe since signing in January 2026.
However, if you want the look for less, a proper rain jacket or a longer returns window, you'll find each of those below. Our Jordan Golf review covers the clothing and the shoes in more depth.
Eastside Golf isn't on this list, because its FAQ says it only ships within the United States.
Best Pick For…
| Play Style / Need | Best Brand |
|---|---|
| Dri-FIT polos from £39.99, on the same UK store | Nike Golf |
| Heritage golf trainers and trousers in three leg lengths | adidas |
| Luxury golf trainers with UK duties included | G/Fore |
| Collab-led golf streetwear | Malbon |
| Heavyweight golf streetwear from a UK brand | Three Putt Golf |
| A sporty look on a budget | Puma |
| Trouser sizes and a 60-day returns window | Under Armour |
How I Tested
I've tested every brand on this list.
Jordan sells a sneaker-culture look, so I judged each brand on style first. Then I looked at price, rain protection, size range and how easy each one is to buy and return from a UK address. Prices are full UK prices, checked in October 2026.
Detailed Breakdown by Brand
Nike Golf: Best overall alternative, with Dri-FIT polos from £39.99

Available on: nike.com · Read our full Nike review
Key Features:
- Velocity Dri-FIT Chest-Logo Golf Polo: £39.99, in 90% polyester and 10% elastane, from XS to 4XL
- Par Dri-FIT Chest-Logo Golf Polo: £54.99, made from 100% recycled polyester fibres
- Par Storm-FIT ADV Loose Golf Jacket: £249.99, built to block out the elements
- Air Max 90 G Golf Shoes: £144.99, a waterproof golf version of the classic trainer
Pros:
- Much cheaper polos: The Velocity polo is £39.99, against £74.99 for Jordan's Dri-FIT polo
- Weather gear: A Storm-FIT ADV golf jacket, which Jordan's UK golf range doesn't have
- Tour players: Today's Golfer says Nike outfits Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy and Nelly Korda
Cons:
- The same returns: 30 days from delivery, just like Jordan in the UK
- Delivery strings: Free from £50 for Members, but guests need to spend £99
- Poor Trustpilot score: 1.5 out of 5 from 13,192 reviews, across all of nike.com
Verdict:
Nike is the obvious first stop, because it's the same company using the same Dri-FIT technology. You lose the Jumpman, but the Velocity polo costs about half as much and comes in sizes up to 4XL.
adidas: Best for Samba golf shoes and trousers in three leg lengths

Available on: adidas.co.uk · Read our full adidas review
Key Features:
- Ultimate365 Solid Polo Shirt: £40, in stretchy, soft single jersey, from XS to 4XL
- Ultimate365 Tapered Golf Trousers: £60, with four-way stretch, in waists from 28 to 42 inches with 30, 32 and 34-inch legs
- Ultimate365 Climaproof Full-Zip Jacket: £110, which adidas says locks out the weather
- Samba Spikeless Golf Shoes: £100, with Gazelle and Spezial golf shoes alongside
Pros:
- Well-rated trainers: The Samba golf shoe averages 4.6 out of 5 from 305 reviews on adidas UK
- Free returns: Within 30 calendar days of receiving your order
- Recycled fabric: adidas says the Solid polo is made with at least 70% recycled materials
Cons:
- Delivery strings: Free for adiClub members, or over £40 for everyone else
- Hype items: Only 14 days to return hype products
- Poor Trustpilot score: About 1.2 out of 5 from more than 2,800 reviews for adidas.co.uk
Verdict:
adidas gives you the sneaker look on the course for less than Jordan, especially on polos. The Samba golf shoe is £100, the polo is £40, and the trousers come in three leg lengths, so taller golfers have a choice.
G/Fore: Best for luxury golf trainers, with UK duties included

Available on: gfore.co.uk · Read our full G/Fore review
Key Features:
- Solid Tech Jersey Polo: £90, in 92% polyester and 8% elastane, from S to XXL
- Dearer polos: The All Play Polo at £100 and the Pocket Piqué Polo at £110
- G.112 Golf Shoe: £190, in water-repellent synthetic leather, with a wide fitting
- Delivery: Free over £150, or a £6.95 flat rate below that
Pros:
- No surprise charges: Its UK store says duties and taxes are included
- Well-rated shoe: The G.112 scores 4.6 out of 5 from 90 reviews on its UK site
- Roomier fit: G/Fore says the G.112 fits slightly roomier than its other styles
Cons:
- Premium prices: Polos from £90 and the G.112 golf shoe at £190
- Thin independent proof: Trustpilot shows gfore.com at 1.5 out of 5 from just 56 reviews
- Returns clock: Full-price items go back within 30 days of the order date, not delivery
Verdict:
G/Fore is the luxury pick if it's the trainers you love about Jordan. Its polos start above Jordan's £74.99 entry polo, but the UK store includes duties, so there's nothing extra to pay at the door.
Malbon: Best for collab-led golf streetwear

Available on: malbon.com · Read our full Malbon review
Key Features:
- Fairway Polo: £120, in a soft 95% nylon and 5% lycra blend, from XS to XXL
- Fairway Hex Polo: £130, in lightweight 190gsm polyester with a relaxed fit
- Malbon x adidas Samba Golf Shoe: £165
- Dornoch Gore-Tex Terrain Anorak: £515
Pros:
- Collabs: Its adidas Samba golf shoe mixes sneaker heritage with golf culture
- Tour players: Jason Day and Charley Hull signed in 2024, and Sungjae Im joined in 2026
- Prices in pounds: Its site shows UK visitors GBP prices
Cons:
- The dearest polos here: From £120, with a £515 Gore-Tex anorak
- Duties on top: Malbon says import duties and VAT may be charged on delivery
- Returns: 30 days from the order date, with return shipping paid by you
Verdict:
Malbon is for golfers who love Jordan's sneaker-culture side and will happily pay more for it. Budget for import charges too, because Malbon says they can arrive on top.
Three Putt Golf: Best for heavyweight golf streetwear from a UK brand

Available on: threeputtgolfclothing.co.uk
Key Features:
- Hoodies and sweatshirts: 430gsm hoodies from £45.99 and 400gsm cotton sweatshirts from £37.99
- Tees: 305gsm heavyweight cotton from £24.99, cut relaxed with a longer body
- Polos: The Pin High at £29.99, with a little give, plus The Caddie and the Dogleg at £34.99, all regular fit in S to 3XL
- Designs: Original golf graphics, such as Tee Time and Reckless Driving, plus plain Three on the Green basics
Pros:
- Free UK delivery: On every order, with no minimum
- Polo prices: From £29.99, less than half the price of Jordan's Dri-FIT polo
- Streetwear feel: Golf graphics on heavyweight cotton, made for the weekend as much as the course
Cons:
- No shoes, 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 won't give you golf trainers or a Jumpman. However, if it's the streetwear side of Jordan you like, Three Putt's heavyweight hoodies and graphic tees bring that look to the course, with free UK delivery.
Puma: Best for a sporty look on a budget

Available on: uk.puma.com · Read our full Puma review
Key Features:
- Pure 3.0 Golf Polo: £35, with four-way stretch, made with 100% recycled material excluding trims
- 101 Pure Tailored Golf Pants: £55, in a tailored fit
- Suede G Golf Shoes: £90, the Puma Suede as a golf shoe, with a one-year waterproof claim
- CLOUDSPUN Fleece Hybrid Golf Jacket: £80
Pros:
- Low prices: A £35 polo, under half Jordan's £74.99, and £90 golf shoes, a little under Jordan's £99.99 Mule
- Easy UK buying: Prices include VAT, with free standard delivery over £50 and free 30-day returns
- Tour pedigree: Rickie Fowler extended his deal in January 2025 and still wears head-to-toe Puma Golf
Cons:
- Poor Trustpilot score: 1.6 out of 5 from 83 reviews for its UK site
- Hidden sizes: The UK site hides sold-out sizes, so the full size range isn't clear
- No exchanges: Return and reorder instead
Verdict:
Puma gets you a sporty, sneaker-led look for less, with a £35 polo and £90 Suede G golf shoes. Check your size before you plan an outfit around a piece, because the UK site only shows what's available.
Under Armour: Best for trouser sizes and 60-day returns

Available on: underarmour.co.uk · Read our full Under Armour review
Key Features:
- Matchplay Polo: £40, in 93% polyester and 7% elastane, from XS to 3XL
- Drive Tapered Pants: £60, in waists from 28 to 44 inches with 30 to 36-inch legs
- Drive Pro Rain Jacket: £140, 100% waterproof with fully taped seams
- Drive Pro Clone Golf Shoes: £160, developed with input from Jordan Spieth
Pros:
- The longest returns here: Free returns within 60 days, double Jordan's 30
- A proper waterproof: The Drive Pro Rain Jacket costs about £110 less than Nike's Storm-FIT ADV jacket
- Recycled fabric: The Drive Tapered Pants use at least 90% recycled polyester in the main body fabric
Cons:
- A performance look: Sportier and less fashion-led than Jordan
- Poor Trustpilot score: 1.3 out of 5 from 1,345 reviews for underarmour.co.uk
- Polo sizes: The Matchplay polo stops at 3XL, the same as Jordan in the UK
Verdict:
Under Armour is the practical choice for golfers who struggle with trouser fits. The Drive Tapered Pants run from a 28 to a 44-inch waist with legs up to 36 inches, and you get 60 days to send them back.

Summary
Jordan Golf looks sharp and the shoes are excellent, but UK golfers pay £74.99 for a polo, get less than half of the US range and have no waterproof jacket to choose from.
Nike is the best all-round swap, because its polos use the same Dri-FIT technology and start at about half the price. adidas is the pick for heritage golf trainers, G/Fore and Malbon for the premium sneaker look, and Under Armour if your trousers never fit.

Frequently Asked Questions About Jordan Golf
Is Jordan Golf made by Nike?
Yes. Jordan is Nike's Michael Jordan sub-brand, and Jordan Golf is its golf range, sold side by side with Nike Golf on Nike UK. That makes Nike Golf the most natural alternative. It uses the same Dri-FIT technology and has the same 30-day UK returns, but its Velocity polo costs £39.99 against £74.99 for Jordan's Dri-FIT polo.
How much does Jordan Golf cost in the UK?
On Nike UK, Jordan's Dri-FIT golf polo is £74.99, the Sport Golf Polo £109.99 and the Knit Golf Polo £134.99, and there's a cashmere golf hoodie at £274.99. The Dri-FIT polo costs almost twice as much as Nike's £39.99 Velocity polo, though it's a cotton-rich blend, and Nike's own Tailored Performance polos cost more, at £89.99 to £99.99.
What brands are similar to Jordan Golf?
Nike Golf is the obvious one, because it's the same company with the same Dri-FIT technology. For the sneaker side, adidas sells Samba, Gazelle and Spezial golf shoes, G/Fore makes luxury golf trainers, and Malbon does collab-led streetwear, including an adidas Samba golf shoe. Puma and Under Armour are the sporty, practical picks.
Can you buy Jordan Golf in the UK?
Yes, from Nike UK, which sells in pounds with free delivery for Members on orders of £50 or more. However, it lists about 22 golf clothing styles against about 46 on Nike US, with no jackets, padded vests or caps in its Jordan golf listings. Neither Nike store ships abroad, so you can't order the US range.
Does Jordan Golf make waterproof golf jackets?
Not really. Nike UK's Jordan golf range has a wind top, a water-repellent woven top and water-repellent trousers, but no waterproof jacket. For proper rain gear, Under Armour's Drive Pro Rain Jacket is £140 and 100% waterproof with fully taped seams, and Nike's own Storm-FIT ADV golf jacket is £249.99.
Which Jordan Golf alternative is best for golf shoes?
adidas, if you want a well-reviewed classic. Its Samba Spikeless Golf Shoes cost £100 and average 4.6 out of 5 from 305 reviews on its UK site. Puma's Suede G is cheaper at £90, Nike's waterproof Air Max 90 G is £144.99, and G/Fore's G.112 is £190 with a wide fitting. Malbon's adidas Samba collab costs £165.
Which Jordan Golf alternative is best for tall golfers?
Under Armour, whose Drive Tapered Pants come in waists from 28 to 44 inches with legs from 30 to 36 inches. adidas's Ultimate365 Tapered Golf Trousers come in 30, 32 and 34-inch legs. Nike says tall sizes are only available for select styles, though most buyers of Jordan's trousers who mention length say the leg runs long.
