Spending the day out on the golf course, particularly a hot day, can leave you feeling sweaty and uncomfortable. To combat this, Nike developed Dri-Fit technology – a hybrid micro-fibre/polyester fabric designed to wick sweat away from the body. The idea is that your sweat travels to the surface of the polo shirt and evaporates, allowing you to stay dry.

The Dri-Fit Tech Stripe Polo Shirt features a three button placket, rib knit collar and side split hem. It has a stylish horizontal stripe design, the famous Nike 'swoosh' on the left breast, and is available in a variety of sizes and colours.

As far as looks are concerned, this polo shirt definitely gets the thumbs up. We at Leaderboard have always been fans of Nike's clothing range and are no less so with the Tech Stripe. It's classically styled, well made, and looks good on.

After a full day of golf in the summer sun, we were all in agreement that these polo shirts felt really comfortable and kept us dry. The material is lightweight and didn't stick to the body as can be the case with other golf shirts. It absorbs perspiration well and keeps you feeling cool all day.

The Dri-Fit technology has had somewhat mixed reviews in the past with some suggesting that, when it comes to high-intensity exercise, these garments are no better than any ordinary cotton T-shirt. While this may be true, we think the Tech Stripe Polo Shirt more than meets the needs of the average golfer out for a leisurely round of golf. Although it may not be quite so effective in competitive golf when the heat is really on.

With the Dri-Fit Tech Stripe Polo Shirt, Nike Golf has produced a high quality piece of clothing that is easy to wash and look after, and should give you plenty of wear. We would have no hesitation in recommending it.
