We test golf apparel the way we play. Hard, social, and honest.
A Canadian golfwear brand whose ambassadors won two majors in 2026, against a Leeds streetwear label that sells four heavyweight garments. Only one of them delivers to a UK address.
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.
Verdict and Quick Pick
Levelwear is a Canadian golfwear brand with tour polos, golf trousers and taped waterproofs. Its ambassadors Aaron Rai and Ryan Fox both won majors in 2026, but it doesn't ship to the UK. Three Putt is a Leeds golf streetwear brand selling tees, long-sleeves, sweatshirts and hoodies in pounds. Levelwear dresses the round; Three Putt dresses everything around it.
Best for UK golfers who want golf style off the course: Three Putt. Heavyweight tees and hoodies with golf graphics, priced from £24.99 to £54.99 with free UK delivery. It is casual wear, not performance kit.
Best for North American golfers who want tour-standard kit: Levelwear. Wicking polos at $70–$90, stretch golf trousers, a fully taped waterproof and a deep women's range. From the UK, the only route is a parcel forwarder plus import costs.

Brand Overview
Three Putt Golf
Three Putt is a UK golf streetwear brand based in Leeds. The range is deliberately narrow: tees, long-sleeve tees, sweatshirts and hoodies.
Each comes in six graphic designs: Contours, Happy Place, Tee Time, Reckless Driving, The Scenic Route and Three on the Green. The idea is golf culture you can wear anywhere, not a full on-course wardrobe.
That brings honest limits. The range has no polos, trousers, shorts, outerwear, waterproofs or caps, and no women's-specific line. If your club has a collared-shirt dress code, you will need a polo from elsewhere.
Levelwear
Levelwear is a family-owned Canadian apparel company that dates itself to 1987. It sits under the Accolade Group in Richmond Hill, Ontario, just north of Toronto, with Hester Ngo as chief executive.
Golf is only half the business. Levelwear also makes licensed apparel for North American leagues, adding the NFL in August 2026, plus official 126th U.S. Open and TGL apparel.
The tour story is strong. Its athletes page lists 27 players, and two of them won majors in 2026. England's Aaron Rai, a Levelwear ambassador for four years, won the PGA Championship at Aronimink in May. He was the first player from England to win it since Jim Barnes in 1919. New Zealand's Ryan Fox then won The Open at Royal Birkdale in July. Corey Conners, Adam Hadwin and LPGA player Carlota Ciganda are on the roster too.
For British golfers, access is the headline. Typing levelwear.com takes a UK visitor to the US store, priced in dollars. That store ships only to US addresses, and the Canadian store only to Canada and the US. American Golf, Scottsdale Golf, Function18, Clubhouse Golf and GolfOnline listed no Levelwear in early October 2026. A parcel forwarder, plus UK import VAT and possibly duty, is the only way in.
Key Features and Fabrics
Three Putt Golf
- Tees: 100% cotton, 305gsm, relaxed fit, S–2XL, five colourways per design.
- Long-sleeve tees: 305gsm, 100% cotton, oversized drop-shoulder fit, S–XL.
- Sweatshirts: 400gsm cotton crewneck, regular fit, S–2XL.
- Hoodies: 430gsm, 56% cotton / 44% polyester, oversized drop-shoulder fit, S–2XL, four colourways per design.
These are heavyweight casual garments, not technical performance wear. Do not expect moisture-wicking, stretch fabric or weather protection.
Levelwear
- Polos: the Primary polo is moisture-wicking 100% polyester with a collar stay, forward shoulder seams and a high-low hem with side slits. The Versa polo is an anti-bacterial jacquard in 91% recycled polyester and 9% spandex. Printed styles such as the Wildflower add UPF 50+.
- Midlayers: the Heron quarter-zip is wicking 100% polyester. The Marathon hoodie is 63% cotton, 33% polyester and 4% spandex.
- Luxe collection: the unisex Luxe Signature hoodie and crew are 50% recycled polyester, 43% viscose and 7% spandex, cut oversized with a drop shoulder.
- Trousers: the Airspeed trousers are tapered with an elastic waistband. The Apex chino is 90% polyester and 10% spandex with an anti-static finish, and the Parflex uses mechanical stretch.
- Waterproofs: the Repel jacket is a three-layer bonded polyester shell with fully taped seams and a 15k/15k waterproof and breathability rating. A 2.5-layer stretch Theta rain jacket and trousers joined the range in late September 2026.
Even Levelwear's $25 Richmond tee is a light jersey with mechanical stretch, built to move rather than to carry a graphic. That is the difference in purpose in one garment.

Levelwear prices are full list prices on us.levelwear.com on 2 October 2026, converted at about $1.30 to £1. None is open to a UK buyer directly, because neither Levelwear store ships here. A forwarder adds its own fee, and UK import VAT, plus any duty, is due on arrival. Every sale item is also final sale.
Price Verdict
On paper, Levelwear is fair value for tour-standard golf kit. A $70 Versa polo works out at about £54, roughly what Three Putt charges for a hoodie. But those dollar prices only apply in North America. For a UK buyer paying in pounds with free delivery, Three Putt is the simpler and cheaper buy.
Fit and Sizing
Three Putt Golf
Three Putt sizes run S–2XL, except the long-sleeves, which are cut oversized and run S–XL. Tees have a relaxed fit, long-sleeves a loose drop shoulder, and sweatshirts a regular fit. Hoodies are oversized with a drop shoulder, so size down if you want a closer look.
Levelwear
Levelwear cuts a modern athletic fit, with forward shoulder seams for the backswing, high-low hems and stretch in most knits. Verified buyers on its own site mostly say true to size, though one reported polos shrinking, so follow the care label.
The size run is the weak spot for bigger men. Almost every men's golf piece runs S–XXL, with no 3XL and no big and tall range. The unisex Luxe collection starts at XS and is deliberately oversized. Women's golf runs XS–XXL on most styles, with some stopping at XL and a few in numeric 2–14 sizes.
Trousers come in 30–42 inch waists, and juniors get a $50 Versa polo in youth sizes. Separate size guides cover men's, women's, youth and the Luxe range.
Fit Verdict
Levelwear wins on golf-specific cut and on a women's range that Three Putt doesn't offer. Three Putt’s cuts are roomier. Getting a Levelwear size wrong from the UK is costly, because the return postage is yours to pay.
Style and Versatility
Three Putt Golf
Three Putt is golf streetwear: golf-themed graphics on heavyweight fabric, cut in relaxed and oversized shapes. A hoodie works on a casual range session, at the pub after a round or as a weekend layer. It is not the right shirt for a members' competition at a traditional club, so check your golf dress code first.
Levelwear
Levelwear's golf look is clean and athletic: solid tour polos, tasteful prints such as the floral Wildflower, and quarter-zips that suit a club competition.
Off the course, the unisex Luxe collection does the work: relaxed, oversized hoodies and crews rather than swing layers. The licensed side adds NHL, NBA, MLB and NFL team apparel.
Style Verdict
Both brands cross over, from opposite ends. Levelwear moves from the course to the clubhouse, with Luxe pieces for the sofa. Three Putt moves from golf culture into everyday streetwear. Choose by where you will wear it most.
Quality, Durability and Sustainability
Three Putt Golf
Three Putt's quality story is weight. Tees are 305gsm cotton, sweatshirts are 400gsm and hoodies are 430gsm. On sustainability, Three Putt makes no recycled-content or eco claims. Its tees are 100% cotton.
Levelwear
Levelwear keeps its fabric story plain: no branded fabric technology, just polyester performance knits and published ratings on its waterproofs. Outside verdicts are positive. Golf.com quoted Adam Hadwin calling the product "some of the highest quality on Tour". The Review Caddie credits it with "performance fabrics that punch above their price point".
The evidence is thin, though: a few dozen reviews on its own site, and an unclaimed levelwear.com Trustpilot profile with no reviews.
On sustainability, the Versa polo is 91% recycled polyester and the Luxe range 50%. Levelwear's sustainability page says it has cut more than 8 million polybags since 2020 and prefers ocean and rail freight to air. It names no third-party certification and still refers to 2024 targets. Product pages don't state where garments are made.
Quality Verdict
Levelwear wins on technical construction, stated recycled content and a properly taped waterproof. Three Putt wins on heavyweight cotton at a low price. Choose Levelwear for the round, and Three Putt for heavy casual layers after it.
Customer Support and Returns
Three Putt Golf
Delivery is free across the UK. Returns are accepted within 14 days of delivery. Email support@threeputtgolfclothing.co.uk first, and note that you pay the return postage. Support is by email.
Levelwear
Levelwear's support runs by email at support@levelwear.com and on a North American toll-free line. Lines are open Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5pm Eastern, which is the afternoon and evening in the UK.
The returns terms are muddled. Its returns page allows 60 days from order for unworn, unwashed items with tags. The refund policy linked at checkout says 30 days from shipping, "effective immediately". Plan on 30.
Either way, you pay the return postage, original shipping isn't refunded and all sale items are final sale. Faulty items are covered for six months, with a replacement rather than a refund. Free ground shipping applies to orders over $99, but only to US and Canadian addresses.
None of that reaches Britain. With no UK delivery, there is no duties process and no UK returns route.
Support Verdict
For a North American shopper, Levelwear's phone line and longer window beat Three Putt's email-only support and 14-day returns. For a UK shopper, Three Putt is the one you can actually order, in pounds with free UK delivery. With Levelwear, every step depends on a forwarder.
Our Pick
Buy Levelwear if you live in the US or Canada and want tour-standard golf kit at mid-market prices. The Versa polo, Airspeed trousers and Repel waterproof cover most of the golfing year, and the women's range is a strength. From the UK, weigh the forwarding fee, import VAT and paid returns first. Our full Levelwear golf clothing review covers the range in more depth.
Buy Three Putt if you want golf style for everywhere else, priced in pounds with free UK delivery. Heavyweight tees from £24.99 and hoodies under £55 cover the walk to the first tee and the pub after. A sweatshirt or long-sleeve tee rounds it out. You will still need a collared polo from elsewhere if your club requires one.

Frequently Asked Questions About Three Putt vs Levelwear
Is Three Putt a good alternative to Levelwear?
For off-course style, yes, and it is far easier to buy in the UK. Three Putt sells long-sleeves and heavyweight tees, sweatshirts and hoodies from £24.99 with free UK delivery. It is not an alternative for on-course kit, because the range has no polos, trousers, shorts or waterproofs.
Does Levelwear ship to the UK?
No. The US store ships only to US addresses, and the Canadian store only to Canada and the US. There is no UK store and no pricing in pounds. A UK buyer would need a parcel forwarder, then pay UK import VAT, and possibly duty, on arrival.
Can I buy Levelwear in a UK golf shop?
Not from the main retailers. American Golf, Scottsdale Golf, Function18, Clubhouse Golf and GolfOnline listed no Levelwear in early October 2026. New Zealand has an exclusive distributor, RS Golf, but Britain has no equivalent. For a Canadian golf brand you can buy in pounds, Lululemon has UK stores.
Which is better on the course?
Levelwear, clearly. Its polos meet collared-shirt dress codes, its fabrics add wicking and stretch, and it sells golf trousers, shorts and a fully taped Repel waterproof. Three Putt's tees and hoodies suit a relaxed round at an easy-going club, but offer no performance fabric or weather protection.
Is Three Putt good quality?
Three Putt's quality case rests on fabric weight. Tees are 305gsm 100% cotton, sweatshirts are 400gsm cotton and hoodies are 430gsm cotton/polyester. That is substantial for casual wear at £24.99–£54.99. Levelwear is more technical, but a UK buyer can't order it direct.
How do the fits differ?
Levelwear cuts a modern athletic fit with forward shoulder seams and stretch, and buyers mostly say it runs true to size. Men's golf tops stop at XXL, while women's run XS–XXL on most styles. Three Putt's cuts are roomier, from relaxed tees to oversized hoodies, in S–2XL, with the long-sleeves in S–XL.
Are Levelwear and Three Putt sustainable?
Levelwear has more to show. Its Versa polo is 91% recycled polyester, the Luxe range uses 50% recycled polyester, and it reports more than 8 million polybags cut since 2020. It names no third-party certification, though. Three Putt makes no recycled-content or eco claims. Its tees are 100% cotton.
Which is better value?
For a UK buyer, Three Putt. Its whole range sits between £24.99 and £54.99, with free UK delivery and a 14-day return window. Levelwear's $70 Versa polo is about £54 in the US, but that price isn't open to UK buyers. A forwarder, import VAT and paid returns all add to it.
