ADIDAS MENS GOLF BASE LAYERS

While they’re not strictly ‘windproof’, adidas golf base layers offer excellent insulation during rounds where the wind picks up, helping you stay warm from the first hole to the last.

Windproof materials are most often used in golf clothing that’s found atop the base layer, like golf jackets. This way, the wind is stopped at the first layer it finds, preventing it from reaching the body and dropping your temperature.

Combining an adidas base layer with an adidas golf jacket is the ideal setup to protect you when the wind rises and the temperature takes a nose dive. 

Yes. Generally, adidas base layers are tight-fitting, or ‘slim fit’. This design choice is advantageous for multiple reasons.

Firstly, the base layer clings to your skin lightly, so it doesn’t become overbearing while you’re playing a game of golf. After all, base layers are designed to be as unobtrusive as possible and stay hidden beneath a golf shirt or golf jumper.

Second, by sitting close to the skin, adidas base layers better insulate players, preventing heat loss. This effect is also amplified by the use of tight-fitted cuffs which lock in heat at the wrists.

We wouldn’t advise wearing adidas base layers as a replacement for a golf shirt.

Because they’re very slim-fitted and are designed to be worn beneath other pieces of golf clothing, they aren’t the most flattering pieces of attire in the world.

Plus, they’re built to prevent the loss of heat when working in tandem with other clothing that sits atop. So you’re likely to still be very chilly if you only wear a base layer!

But combine an adidas base layer with a formal golf polo and golf jumper? You’re all set.

Yes. Despite sitting very close to the skin, where they’re likely to collect sweat, adidas base layers do very well in the wash.

adidas’ dedication to high-quality materials means they’re built to last. So you can easily throw them in the wash, let them dry, and be ready to use them all over again on your next round.

To be safe, we’d recommend washing them at a low temperature or hand-washing them for the best results, before allowing them to air-dry naturally.
