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

Stitch Golf is premium-quality golf clothing built for players who want every part of their game to look as considered as their swing.

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: 8.3/10

Stitch Golf is a brand that earned its credibility through bags before it earned it through clothing. The SL2 carry bag, now in its Gen 2 iteration, made Stitch a legitimate name in golf through its Touring Fabric construction, racing-car-inspired design language, and Golf Monthly Editor's #1 Choice recognition. Stitch is the official apparel partner of Bryson DeChambeau's Crushers GC team on the LIV Golf circuit, and DeChambeau wore Stitch throughout the 2023 and 2024 seasons, including his second major win at the 2024 US Open at Pinehurst No. 2, which accelerated the apparel side of the story considerably.

The clothing range follows the same philosophy as the bags: classic styling, genuine material quality, and precisely considered construction details, right down to collar stays on every polo so the collar holds its shape under a sweater. For golfers who want their entire setup, bag, clothing, and accessories, to feel curated and coherent, Stitch is the brand most equipped to deliver that.

The trade-off is pricing. Stitch sits firmly in the premium tier, and sizing runs with some quirks that require attention. But the quality is there.

Stitch not the right brand for you? Check out our comprehensive list of the best Stitch Golf alternatives.

Key Features

• Signature tech/fabric: 95% polyester/5% spandex performance blends, pique and technical fabric polos, heavier yarn weight for collar shape retention, YKK zippers across accessories
• Design language: Classic racing-inspired, Gulf colour references, retro-modern with restrained branding
• Fit profile: True tailored fit, cut higher under the armpits than most brands (Jermyn Street shirt reference), modern and clean
• Range depth: Polos, midlayers/quarter-zips/vests, trousers/5-pocket pants, outerwear, bags & accessories (flagship category)

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Collar stay on every polo ensures the collar holds its shape throughout the round, a construction detail most brands ignore
• Bryson DeChambeau US Open validation is the most credible ambassador story in the review series
• Every polo cut higher under the armpit for a better body fit, inspired by tailored shirt construction
• Strong UK presence via stitchgolf.co.uk with next-day delivery and proper UK returns
• Racing-inspired design language is distinctive without being divisive
• Golf Monthly and Golf Digest rated; institutional credibility earned through product, not marketing spend

Cons

• Sizing is genuinely inconsistent: polos run slightly roomy, midlayers run slightly small, ML size is effectively a Large
• Pricing is high even within the premium bracket; one reviewer noted better performance fabrics available from Rhoback or Redvanly at lower cost
• Apparel is secondary to bags in Stitch's identity; clothing range depth is narrower than specialist apparel brands
• Limited colour variety within each season compared to larger lifestyle brands

Stitch Golf Pricing

Stitch sits at the top of the premium accessible tier. You are paying for precise construction and the brand's established quality reputation, built through its bags before it was built through clothing.

Comparison:

• Stitch vs Three Putt: Three Putt brings UK streetwear culture and stronger value at a fraction of the price. Stitch brings a total-kit aesthetic and premium construction for golfers who want every element of their game to match.
• Stitch vs G/Fore: The most natural comparison. Both are premium lifestyle-performance brands with strong accessories. G/Fore is more playful and fashion-forward; Stitch is cleaner, more restrained, and racing-influenced.
• Stitch vs TravisMathew: TravisMathew offers more lifestyle versatility and a broader colour palette at slightly lower prices. Stitch wins on construction precision and aesthetic coherence.
• Stitch vs Dunning: Dunning has stronger fabric engineering credentials; Stitch has stronger brand identity and UK retail infrastructure. Both reward serious golfers who look past marketing.

Promos/Outlet Notes: Stitch runs periodic sales, and first-order discount codes (typically 15%) are available via newsletter sign-up. The brand's premium positioning means heavy discounting is rare, but end-of-season clearance does occur through stitchgolf.co.uk.

Verdict: 7.6/10

High but not unreasonable for the construction quality delivered. The UK site and next-day delivery make the buying experience smoother than most premium brands in this series.

Stitch Golf Fit & Sizing

Stitch's fit philosophy draws from tailored shirt construction. The general manager of Stitch Europe described the approach explicitly: cut like a Jermyn Street shirt, higher under the armpits than most golf brands, to give a better fit down the body. The heavier yarn weight used in polos helps maintain the collar and chest shape across a full round.

The complication is that sizing is not uniform across categories. Polos run slightly roomy; midlayers run slightly small. The ML (Medium-Large) size is effectively a Large, and the sizing cascade runs large from there. Multiple reviewers at 6'1" and 205lbs (approximately 188cm, 93kg) report that Large works consistently across all Stitch categories.

Notes:

• Polos: Slightly roomier than the tailored description suggests. True to size for slim builds; slightly generous for athletic builds who might normally sit between M and L. Performance fabric (95% polyester, 5% spandex) delivers active moisture wicking tested in summer heat by multiple reviewers.
• Midlayers/Vests: Run smaller than polos. Size up from your polo size. Vest length can read short on longer torsos; L is the reliable choice for tall golfers.
• Trousers/5-pocket pants: Modern styling closer to premium casual trousers than traditional golf slacks. Mid-to-lightweight technical fabric with good swing mobility. Heston 5-pocket pant at £148 is the standout trouser in the range.
• Outerwear: Sits correctly when sized up from midlayer. Clean profile that layers without bulk.
• Sizing summary: Buy your normal size in polos, size up in midlayers and vests, check torso length carefully if you are over 6'1".

Accessibility/Range:

• Men's range is strong; women's apparel range is narrower than bags/accessories.
• Standard sizing, US convention.
• The Gents and Sons sub-collection adds a slightly more casual, relaxed option within the Stitch range.

Verdict: 7.7/10

Precisely constructed fit that rewards when you get it right, but the cross-category sizing inconsistency is a real issue when ordering online. Size guidance must be read carefully per category.

Stitch Core Product Categories

Polos

Stitch polos are built to a specific construction standard that most brands do not articulate. Every polo includes a collar stay and button so the collar holds its shape throughout the round and sits cleanly under a sweater. The heavier yarn weight means the polo does not relax into a shapeless shirt across 18 holes. Performance fabric (95% polyester, 5% spandex) delivers active moisture wicking that reviewers testing the Spring 2025 line confirmed holds up in sustained warm weather. The styling sits in the modern-classic lane: not retro, not streetwear, but clean and recognisable without the loud graphics that characterise younger brands.

Verdict: 8.5/10

Midlayers (quarter-zips/vests/pullovers)

The Speedster Pullover has been specifically called out in reviews for being lightweight and easy to swing through, with a clean profile that works across both course and casual wear. Vests work on the same principle as the bags: practical details thought through fully. The racing-influenced design language appears here in subtle colour blocking and Gulf-referencing colourways. The main caution is the size issue: reviewers who sized correctly praise the range; those who sized down from their polo size regret it.

Verdict: 8.2/10

Trousers/Pants

The Heston 5-pocket pant is the standout. A mid-to-lightweight technical fabric with stretch for swing mobility in a five-pocket cut that reads as a premium casual trouser rather than golf slacks. The Bedford Corduroy Pants offer a heavier mid-season option for golfers who want year-round versatility across their wardrobe. Both carry Stitch's precise construction attention through to the pocket depth, loop placement, and waistband finish.

Verdict: 8.4/10

Outerwear

Stitch outerwear carries the same design coherence as the rest of the range. Water-resistant shells and insulated vests handle British course conditions reasonably well in the mild-to-moderate range. Not a dedicated waterproof system for persistent heavy rain; best paired with a specialist waterproof layer for serious wet-weather rounds.

Verdict: 7.9/10

Bags & Accessories (flagship category)

It would be wrong to review Stitch Golf without acknowledging that the bags are the reason the clothing range exists. The SL2 Golf Bag and its descendants are rated Golf Monthly Editor's Choice, featured in Golf Digest, and used by Bryson DeChambeau at the US Open. The Touring Fabric has the strength of leather while being lighter, more durable, and genuinely water-resistant. The racing design DNA runs through every product. The clothing range earns its place precisely because the bag range already established what "precise attention to detail, all the way down to the last stitch" means in practice.

Verdict: 9.2/10

Stitch Materials & Tech

Stitch's material philosophy runs through every product category. The YKK zippers used on bags appear as a standard specification across accessories. The heavier yarn weight in polos that maintains collar shape is a construction decision that required deliberate cost. The Touring Fabric in bags is proprietary. The overall impression is a brand that makes specific fabric and construction decisions rather than accepting category defaults.

Backend (manufacturing & standards):

• UK operations based at stitchgolf.co.uk with European HQ; distribution includes next-day UK delivery.
• Racing-inspired design language with Gulf colour palette references runs through all product categories.
• Sustainability commitments not prominently published.
• Quality control is evidenced by the longevity noted in long-term user reviews: Stitch bags in heavy winter use described as looking new.

Application (on-garment features):

• 95% polyester / 5% spandex performance blend across polo range: active moisture wicking confirmed in warm-weather testing.
• Heavier yarn weight than standard golf polos for collar and chest shape retention.
• Collar stay and button on every polo shirt, cut from a Jermyn Street tailoring reference.
• Higher armpit cut for improved body fit across the torso.
• YKK zippers across the bag and accessory range.

Verdict: 8.2/10

Thoughtful construction decisions that go beyond what the price point requires, though published technical specifications are less detailed than Dunning or Galvin Green.

Stitch Customer Support

Stitch's UK operation via stitchgolf.co.uk is one of the stronger support setups in this review series. Next-day delivery and UK-based returns are available, and the brand's European infrastructure means UK buyers are not navigating a US-only system.

Channels & Hours

• Customer service via stitchgolf.co.uk contact form and email.
• Next-day delivery available across the UK.
• Preferred delivery date option available.
• Custom ingot personalisation on bags and accessories: 3 days additional lead time.

Policies

• Standard return window for unworn, tagged items via stitchgolf.co.uk.
• UK-based returns are straightforward with proper EU-standard consumer rights applying.
• Exchange availability subject to stock.

Self-Serve

• Clear product photography and fit guidance on stitchgolf.co.uk.
• The sizing issue across categories makes the size guide essential reading before purchase; the site provides it clearly.
• Newsletter sign-up gives 15% first order discount.

Verdict: 8.5/10

The best customer support experience in the American-originated brands in this review series. UK-first operation via stitchgolf.co.uk removes the import friction that limits Southern Tide, Vineyard Vines, and Dunning.

What Are Stitch's Review Ratings from Review Sites?

(As of March 2026)

• Golf Monthly: Editor's Choice for the SL2 golf bag. Multiple apparel reviews positive, though bags remain the headline. The polo collar construction detail specifically noted.
• Golf Digest: Rated Stitch bags alongside editorial coverage of the apparel. Consistent positive positioning as a premium brand worth the investment.
• Breaking Eighty: Detailed brand review for 2025 covering bags and apparel. Polos praised for moisture wicking and modern styling. Sizing caution flagged explicitly for midlayers.
• The Adult Man / Practical Golf: Reviewed clothing extensively. Quality described as genuinely premium; pricing described as steep even versus other premium brands. The ML sizing confusion noted across multiple independent sources.
• Reddit (r/golf): Stitch generates a consistent level of discussion for a brand of its size. Most threads centre on the bags, with clothing discussions acknowledging that the apparel is strong but requires sizing homework.

Synthesis:

Strong institutional credibility from Golf Monthly, Golf Digest, and the Bryson DeChambeau US Open win. Independent reviewers confirm quality is there but flag pricing and the sizing inconsistency as legitimate purchasing concerns. For golfers who commit to getting the sizing right, the reviews are almost universally positive about the product experience.

Frequently Asked Questions About Stitch Golf

Is Stitch Golf worth it?

For golfers who want a coherent premium kit from bag to apparel, yes. Stitch is the only brand in this review series that builds its clothing philosophy around the same design standards as its bags, and for golfers who care about looking considered across their entire setup, that coherence is valuable. The pricing is high; the quality justifies it.

What is Stitch Golf known for?

Primarily its golf bags, particularly the SL2. The SL2 and its successors are Golf Monthly Editor's Choice rated and earned significant coverage through Bryson DeChambeau's US Open win. The apparel range is a more recent addition built to the same quality and design standards as the bags.

Is Stitch Golf available in the UK?

Yes, and it is one of the better UK online buying experiences in the premium golf clothing market. stitchgolf.co.uk is a proper UK operation offering next-day delivery, preferred delivery date options, and UK-standard returns. No import duties, no US time zone barriers.

Why did Bryson DeChambeau wear Stitch Golf?

Stitch Golf is the official apparel partner of DeChambeau's Crushers GC team on the LIV Golf circuit, a partnership announced in early 2024. DeChambeau wore Stitch throughout the 2023 and 2024 seasons and wore the now-iconic "Victory Striped" Stitch polo at the 2024 US Open at Pinehurst No. 2, which he won. The US Open win gave Stitch the most high-profile single-event clothing endorsement moment of any brand in this review series.

How does Stitch Golf sizing work?

With care. Polos run slightly roomy; midlayers and vests run slightly small. The ML (Medium-Large) size reads as a standard Large; size up from that point accordingly. For golfers over 6'1" (188cm), Large is consistently the right choice across all categories. Always check the size chart per category on stitchgolf.co.uk before ordering, as the sizing is not uniform across the range.

What is the Stitch Golf design inspiration?

Classic motor racing and car culture, with specific references to Gulf Racing's iconic blue-and-orange palette. The design language runs through bag colourways, headcover numbering, and apparel colour blocking, creating a coherent visual identity that is unusual and recognisable in a market where most brands work from generic coastal or athletic references.

Does Stitch Golf make women's clothing?

The women's apparel range is narrower than the men's range. Stitch's primary women's product strength is in bags and accessories, where the full range is available to both. The men's apparel range has significantly more depth and seasonal development than the women's clothing offering currently.
