These women’s knitted polos bring a stylish (and warm) upgrade to a golf staple

Women's Golf Style

These ultra-soft polos all look as stylish over a pair of athletic trousers as they do a pleated skirt or pair of jeans. And while effortlessly of-the-moment in the fashion world, these knit and sweater polo are also naturally golf-ready, performance-wise. Materials like wool and cashmere, which many sweater polos feature, are inherently antimicrobial. Sweaters, having a breathable knit structure, will help maintain optimal body temperatures as the weather changes while offering a cozy feel that won't irritate the skin or restrict movement. In a range of springy pastels, retro vibes and flattering silhouettes, you’ll find one (or six) on this list you love.

This full-sleeve, slim-fit polo features a hidden zipper placket for a sleek and minimalist look. The sweater texture feels soft against the skin, while still offering the breathability and UV-protecting qualities you look for in a classic polo. In addition to the sophisticated pacific-blue hue, an elongated waistband adds to the retro-1960s look-and-feel with a feminine and flattering silhouette.

We love this feathery tan color for its calming, cozy appearance that pairs effortlessly with its natural fibers.

This beautiful garment is a great option if you’re looking for a classic polo silhouette in knit that also embraces the cropped trend.

Behold, the knit sleeveless polo: perfect for warmer days when you’re looking for the cozy, sophisticated appearance of a knit top but need the breathability of short, or no, sleeves. This creamy quartz option, if you look closely, has delicate white polka dots for a hint of fun and a four-button placket that offers plenty of variability. Made using double-knit jacquard and moisture-wicking technology, this is another versatile choice whether you’re pairing with jeans or your favorite performance skort.

This two-toned polo sweater is eye-catching in green, but also comes in ivory or blue. It boast a classic fit, and the decorative stitching accent blends a contemporary and 1970s vibes. Designed for the course (or the tennis court), this polo would also pair with jeans or a midi-skirt post-round.

For the minimalists out there, this elegant navy pull-over polo is for you. The neutral color will match your go-to trousers and skorts, and the knit texture is as soft and comfortable as it is practical. From a women-owned brand, this no-fuss top is designed for golfers who take their style as seriously as they do their game.

This marigold top is a versatile and sunny option if you’re looking to dip your toe into this trend. Ideal for gentler plays where you don't plan on working up a sweat (or even social events where you want to look the part at the course), this luxurious cashmere polo pairs well with a pleated golf skirt, patterned athletic trouser or, in the latter scenario, an off-the-course floral skirt or flare denim. Plus this Ralph Lauren pony shirt comes in seven size varieties to find the perfect fit.
