We test golf apparel the way we play. Hard, social, and honest.
Five-length stretch joggers from Utah, or heavyweight graphic cotton from Leeds. Two very different golf brands, and who should buy which.
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
Primo Golf Apparel is a Utah brand built around a stretch golf jogger, with polos, quarter-zips, trousers and shorts for an athletic on-course outfit. Three Putt is a Leeds golf streetwear brand selling only tees, long-sleeves, sweatshirts and hoodies. Buy Primo for the course, and Three Putt for off-course style with free UK delivery.
Best for golf trousers that fit and a full on-course outfit: Primo. Stretch joggers at $89 (about £68) in 28–42 waists and five leg lengths, $69 polos to 3XL with Tall sizes, and women's and youth lines. UK buyers pay in dollars and settle import charges on delivery.
Best for heavyweight golf streetwear bought easily in the UK: Three Putt. Tees from £23.99 and 430gsm hoodies from £45.99, priced in pounds with free UK delivery and nothing extra to pay on the doorstep.

Brand Overview
Three Putt Golf
Three Putt Golf is a UK golf streetwear brand based in Leeds. It makes four garments: 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.
It's worth being plain about the limits. There are no polos, trousers, shorts, outerwear, waterproofs or caps, and no women's-specific range. Three Putt is golf culture to wear around the game, not a full on-course wardrobe.
Primo Golf Apparel
Primo Golf Apparel was founded in June 2020 by four cousins who grew up golfing together in California: Matty Gay, now chief executive, and Jason, Jordan and Kirk Williamson. "Primo" is Spanish for cousin. The company is based in Lehi, Utah, and its tagline is "Golfers Are Athletes".
The business started with a golf jogger, which still leads a range of polos, trousers, shorts, layers, and women's and youth lines. Primo says more than 270,000 golfers have bought from it.
It has real tour credibility. YouTube golfer Grant Horvat bought into the company in March 2024. Phil Mickelson's LIV Golf team, HyFlyers GC, named Primo its official apparel sponsor in January 2025. Golf Monthly reports that Si Woo Kim signed at the start of 2026, and a Si Woo Kim x Primo collection followed in August 2026.
The catch for British buyers is distance: orders ship from the US, and there's no UK stockist in October 2026.
Key Features and Fabrics
Three Putt Golf
- Tees: 100% cotton, 260gsm, relaxed fit, in five colourways per design.
- Long-sleeve tees: 280gsm, 85% cotton and 15% polyester, with a loose drop-shoulder fit.
- Sweatshirts: 400gsm cotton crewnecks in a regular fit.
- Hoodies: 430gsm, 56% cotton and 44% polyester, with an oversized drop-shoulder fit, in four colourways per design.
These are cotton garments, not technical performance wear. There's no moisture-wicking, stretch technology or weather protection. The appeal is fabric weight, a relaxed streetwear shape and the graphics.
Primo Golf Apparel
- Joggers: 95% polyester and 5% spandex, with four-way stretch, a non-bunching elastic back and side zips for a clean taper. They cost $89.
- Traditional trousers: a tapered non-jogger option at $99–$109, with a rubber waistband to hold a tucked shirt.
- Polos: Blade Collar and Classic Collar styles, mostly 100% polyester, with some in a 90/10 polyester-spandex blend. Core polos cost $69.
- Hoodies and quarter-zips: a 75% polyester, 25% spandex stretch fabric, plus softer modal-blend CoreSoft pieces.
- Tees: $25, in a blend of 50% polyester, 25% cotton and 25% rayon.
- Outer layers: a $119 Hybrid Jacket and $99 puffer vests, with a ripstop nylon core and stretch side panels.
That's a proper on-course kit, which Three Putt doesn't attempt. What's missing is weatherproofing: no waterproof jacket, rain trouser or DWR claim, so a wet British round needs a shell from another brand.
Price Comparison
| Category | Three Putt | Primo (full price) |
| Tees | £23.99–£29.99 | $25 (about £19) |
| Long-sleeve tops | £27.99–£34.99 | Long-sleeve mock necks and polos $69 (about £53) |
| Sweatshirts and crews | £37.99–£47.99 | Waffle and CoreSoft crews $89 (about £68) |
| Hoodies | £45.99–£54.99 | Golf hoodies mostly $89 (about £68); CoreSoft hoodies $89–$99 (about £68–£76) |
| Polos | Not sold | $69 core, $75 Luxe and $79 Grant Horvat Essentials (about £53–£61) |
| Joggers and trousers | Not sold | Joggers $89 (about £68); traditional trousers $99–$109 (about £76–£84) |
| Shorts | Not sold | $59–$79 (about £45–£61) |
| Jackets and vests | Not sold | Hybrid Jacket $119 (about £92); puffer vests $99 (about £76) |

| UK delivery | Free | Rate not published; import charges collected on delivery |
Primo shows UK visitors dollar prices, so the sterling figures are conversions at about $1.30 to £1. They're full prices, before UK delivery (no rate is published) and before the customs duty, import VAT and fees you pay when the parcel arrives.
Like for like, Primo's $25 tee is cheaper on paper than Three Putt's £23.99–£29.99. It's a lighter polyester, cotton and rayon blend rather than 260gsm cotton, and delivery and import charges can close the gap on a small order.
Everything heavier goes the other way. Three Putt's 430gsm hoodie costs £45.99–£54.99, against about £68 for most Primo hoodies before charges. Its cotton sweatshirts start at £37.99, where Primo's crews are about £68.
Price Verdict
Three Putt wins on hoodies and sweatshirts, and free UK delivery with no import charges helps on every order. Primo's tee is cheaper before delivery and charges. Primo earns credit for a fairly priced $69 polo and $89 jogger, which have no equivalent in the Three Putt range.
Fit and Sizing
Three Putt Golf
Each garment has one fit. Tees are relaxed and run from S to 3XL. Long-sleeve tees have a loose drop-shoulder fit, sweatshirts a regular fit and hoodies an oversized drop-shoulder fit, all from S to 2XL. These shapes suit layering and everyday wear more than a tucked-in round.
Primo Golf Apparel
Primo cuts for an athletic build. Blade polos are labelled "Tapered-Fit", with a 39"–54" chest from S to 3XL. Selected Blade and Classic polos also come in Tall sizes, from L Tall to 3XL Tall. Hoodies and quarter-zips run S–3XL, and Primo suggests sizing up if you're between sizes. Its tees stop at 2XL.
The joggers are the standout. They come in 28–42 waists and five lengths: Extra Short, Short, Regular, Tall and Extra Tall, with inside legs from 24.5" to 31". Not every waist comes in every length, and Primo recommends Short for golfers 5'9" and shorter. Shorts come in 7", 9" and 11" inseams.
Women's pieces run from XS up to 2XL, youth polos and hoodies come in YXS–YXL, and product pages carry full size charts.
Fit Verdict
Primo wins clearly on fit range, especially for golfers who've never found trousers the right length. Three Putt suits a relaxed or oversized streetwear cut, and its tees go a size bigger. Get your Primo size right first time: a swap means posting it back to the US.
Style and Versatility
Three Putt Golf
Three Putt is golf streetwear built around six graphic designs, each across all four garments, so a tee and a hoodie can match. Tees come in five colourways per design and hoodies in four. They sit naturally with jeans or joggers, and suit relaxed rounds, the range and social golf. Golfers at clubs with a collared-shirt dress code will need a polo from elsewhere.
Primo Golf Apparel
Primo's look is clean athletic-casual rather than country-club tradition: mostly solid colours, subtle prints, the Blade Collar polo and jogger-led outfits. A polo, jogger and quarter-zip make a complete round from one brand, and the joggers don't look out of place off the course.
Waffle-knit crews ($89) and button-up shirts ($99–$119) stretch it towards everyday wear, and Grant Horvat and Si Woo Kim fans get their own collections.
Style Verdict
Primo wins for a complete, coordinated on-course look that passes a dress code. Three Putt wins if you'd rather wear a golf graphic than a plain athletic polo, on heavyweight cotton, for the range, the pub or the sofa.
Quality, Durability and Sustainability
Three Putt Golf
Three Putt's quality story is fabric weight: 260gsm tees, 280gsm long-sleeves, 400gsm sweatshirts and 430gsm hoodies. On sustainability, the honest answer is short. Three Putt makes no recycled-content or eco claims and holds no sustainability certifications. Its tees are 100% cotton.
Primo Golf Apparel
Primo's strongest evidence is its own buyers. In October 2026 the Men's Black Golf Jogger showed 4.9/5 from 1,535 reviews on Primo's site. One buyer praised "the perfect inseam for a shorter fella like myself". They're on-site reviews, but there are a lot of them.
The fabrics are sensible stretch polyesters and modal blends, machine washable on cold. Primo says it designs every product in-house in the USA, but product pages don't state where garments are made, and there are no recycled-content or certification claims.
Quality Verdict
Primo wins on technical fabric, with a large body of happy buyers behind its joggers. Three Putt's case is heavyweight cotton at lower hoodie and sweatshirt prices. Neither brand makes recycled-content claims or names a sustainability certification.
Customer Support and Returns
Three Putt Golf
UK delivery is free on every order. Support is by email at support@threeputtgolfclothing.co.uk. You can return items within 14 days of delivery: email support first, and note that you pay the return postage.
Primo Golf Apparel
Primo ships to the UK, but its shipping policy publishes no UK rate or timescale, so check the quote at checkout. Orders are usually processed within 1–2 business days. Customers outside the US and Canada pay any customs duty, taxes and import fees, and for a UK buyer they're collected on delivery. Canadian orders, by contrast, have duties covered by Primo.
The returns policy gives you 30 days from delivery for a refund. Between days 31 and 60 you get store credit or an exchange only, and nothing is accepted after 60 days. Items must be unworn, unwashed and tagged, and Last Call items are final sale.
Unless you added Redo cover with your order, you pay the return postage, which from the UK means international shipping. Support is by email at store@primogolfapparel.com.
Support Verdict
Three Putt, for a UK buyer. Pounds, free UK delivery and no import charges beat a dollar order with an unpublished delivery rate and charges at the door. Primo's longer returns window is a genuine plus, and the risk shrinks if you already know your size.
Our Pick
Buy Primo if you want golf trousers that actually fit and a complete on-course outfit around them. The five-length jogger is the reason to choose it, and $69 polos, stretch quarter-zips and Tall sizes complete a one-brand wardrobe for the course. It dresses partners and juniors too.
Buy it knowing the terms. Order from primogolfapparel.com in dollars, check the delivery quote, budget for import VAT and duty on delivery, and get your size right first time.
Buy Three Putt for heavyweight golf streetwear: graphic tees from £23.99, long-sleeve tees, sweatshirts and 430gsm hoodies, priced in pounds and delivered free in the UK. Every garment comes in the same six designs.
A Primo jogger and polo on the course, and a Three Putt hoodie afterwards, is a sensible split. If you'd rather buy your golf trousers in pounds, our guide to the best golf trousers has more options.

Frequently Asked Questions About Three Putt vs Primo Golf
Is Three Putt a good alternative to Primo Golf?
For hoodies, sweatshirts and tees, yes. Three Putt's are priced in pounds, delivered free in the UK and returnable within 14 days, and its hoodies cost less than Primo's before import charges. For joggers, trousers, shorts or polos, no. Three Putt doesn't make them, and Primo's five-length jogger is its best product.
Which brand is better on the course?
Primo. Its joggers use a 95/5 polyester-spandex four-way stretch, its polos are mostly 100% polyester and its collared polos meet club dress codes. Three Putt's cotton tees and hoodies suit casual rounds and the range. Neither brand makes a waterproof, so a wet round needs a shell from elsewhere.
Does Primo Golf ship to the UK?
Yes, from the US. The store charges UK visitors in dollars and doesn't publish a UK delivery rate or timescale, so check the quote at checkout. Customs duty, import VAT and any courier fees are the buyer's to pay, collected on delivery rather than at checkout. There's no UK stockist in October 2026.
How do the fits differ?
Primo is athletic and tapered. Its joggers come in 28–42 waists and five lengths, and its polos run S–3XL with Tall sizes. Three Putt is relaxed streetwear: tees in S–3XL, and loose or oversized long-sleeves, sweatshirts and hoodies in S–2XL. Primo's tees stop at 2XL. A wrong Primo size means paying to post it back to the US.
Which brand is better value for UK golfers?
For hoodies and sweatshirts, Three Putt. Its hoodies cost £45.99–£54.99, against about £68 for most Primo hoodies before Primo's delivery and import charges. Primo's $25 tee is cheaper on paper. For joggers and polos, Primo is fair value at $89 and $69, but UK delivery and import charges come on top.
Is Three Putt good quality?
Three Putt uses heavyweight fabrics for what it makes: 100% cotton 260gsm tees, 280gsm long-sleeves, 400gsm cotton sweatshirts and 430gsm hoodies. They're casual cotton garments, so they won't stretch or wick like Primo's polyester. Returns are accepted within 14 days of delivery if you email support first.
Are Primo and Three Putt sustainable?
Neither makes sustainability claims. Primo publishes no recycled-content or certification claims, and its product pages don't say where garments are made. Three Putt makes no recycled-content or eco claims; its tees are 100% cotton. If sustainability is your priority, look for a brand that publishes certified or recycled materials.
Does either brand make women's or youth golf clothing?
Primo does. Its women's line includes polos at $59, quarter-zips and hoodies at $89, joggers at $89 and skirts at $69, in sizes from XS up to 2XL. Youth polos ($49) and hoodies ($59) come in YXS–YXL. Three Putt has no women's-specific or youth range.
