OutWest Golf Apparel Review
Introducing OutWest Golf, a new athleisure brand hailing from the untamed Badlands of South Dakota. Embracing the outlaw spirit of the Wild West, OutWest Golf infuses each piece of its collection with a sense of adventure and rebellion. Founder Wes Rasmusson mentioned OutWest was born from the belief that “every game needs an outlaw”. A motto I love. The brand also focuses on providing quality craftsmanship with unmatched affordability. OutWest Golf invites athletes to embrace the thought of the frontier, where rules are made to be challenged and risks are worth taking. Whether you’re navigating life’s up and downs, or need an up and down on 18, OutWest apparel quips you with the gear to conquer it all.
The Looks
OutWest Golf’s polos offer a variety of fun and exciting patterns for your next round of golf, or even a casual night out on the town. The Santee Polo which features a blue and gold pattern depicting everything you’ll see on your next vacation; surfboards, sandals, suitcases, and planes. It’s the ultimate beach vacation polo and will certainly be coming with me on an upcoming trip to Mexico.
I also received the Every Other Cast polo, adorned with blue and green fish. This polo is the perfect conversation starter on the first tee and a great way to talk about the monster that got away that one time. The collar is crisp and classy, really holding its shape even after several washes. I don’t know about you, but this is a quality I don’t take for granted. I even wore the Every Other Cast polo to the office one day and got compliments and that speaks to the dynamic potential of the polos. Lastly, The Shilo Road hoodie is a faded red, lightweight hoodie with grey speckled drawstrings. This hoodie looks super soft even from afar and is even softer when you put it on.
Comfort Level
Made from a polyester and spandex blend, the whole OutWest Golf collection feels super premium. Their polos and hoodie feature 4 way stretch fabric which you can feel as soon as you them on. Tucked or untucked, the polos provide zero restriction while swinging a club. The fit is fairly standard with an athletic taper.
The Shilo Road Hoodie has quickly become one of my favorites in my wardrobe. To be completely honest, it’s just as nice of a hoodie than one I bought for nearly double the price. For $72, this hoodie is really solid and is buttery soft. If you are anything like me, I do not need a super thick hoodie, I run warm. If this is the case, OutWest Golf hoodies are perfect for you. The high performance fleece-like material is still warm but lightweight enough to be comfortable in a variety of temperatures. An Important, but often overlooked feature is the quality of the drawstring. Thick string with heavy duty eyelets allow you to throw the hoodie up for those windy rounds.
A small notable detail, the entire collection boasts a tagless design, ensuring friction-free wear throughout the round.
On-Course Performance
OutWest Golf’s polos and hoodie have proven to be stellar performers on the course over several rounds this spring. Excelling in moisture-wicking and flexibility, they facilitated smooth backswings and follow-throughs. The fabric’s composition ensures comfort and unrestricted movement, essential for maintaining focus on the game. Nothing is worse than a polo that is too tight and holds you back. As previously mentioned, the polo shirts further stand out with their stiff collars, adding a touch of elegance and maintaining a proper, upright style even during intense swings.
Final Thoughts – OutWest Golf
When you’re wearing OutWest Golf’s apparel you will be sure to feel like a gunslinger. Rasmussen’s brand perfectly embodies the spirit of the untamed West, while providing both functionality and style for every golfer ready to embrace their inner outlaw. With that polyester/spandex combo, they’re basically moisture-wicking wizards, keeping you cool and flexible through every swing. Plus, no annoying tags to bug you, so you will be riding into the sunset in comfort.
And let’s talk about those polos – that stiff collar? It’s not just for show, it’s all about keeping you looking sharp while you’re crushing those drives. So, whether you’re out in the Badlands, Wild West, or hitting the local course, OutWest Golf’s got your back with quality gear that won’t break the bank.
