Here is a look at women's winter golf accessories which will hopefully help you focus on your game rather than the cold
In winter, a well-chosen set of accessories can make the difference between an enjoyable round of golf and a struggle against the elements. Winter-ready golf accessories not only keep you warm but can also add a stylish touch to your outfit. This guide covers essential accessories that combine function and style, offering tips for optimal colour coordination and flexibility on the course.
Warm, functional winter headwear
A high-quality winter hat is essential in cold weather, protecting you from heat loss and helping you focus on your game without distractions. Look for options made from insulated, moisture-wicking materials to keep you dry and warm without overheating. Popular choices for winter golf include:
Fleece-lined or wool beanies trap heat, while options with a low-profile design fit well under a hood. If you prefer a cap, there are options that cover your ears and keep you protected just like a beanie style hat would.
Style Tip: There are plenty of colour options out there so you can either try to coordinate your hat with your outfit or maybe look to add a splash of colour to your winter look.
Insulated golf gloves for grip and warmth
Cold hands can hinder grip and overall performance, so insulated gloves are a must. Winter golf gloves are designed to keep hands warm without sacrificing grip. When selecting gloves, focus on materials like synthetic blends or leather for durability and warmth retention. Some popular types include:
Thermal Gloves often have fleece interiors and moisture-resistant exteriors for full protection. For added grip they may have textured palms which will help when conditions are cold and damp. Note that winter golf gloves are normally sold as a pair. If you're looking for a pair that's a bit more exciting colourwise than black then the Surprizeshop Polar Stretch pictured comes in a variety of colours and patterns.
Performance Tip: Consider purchasing a pair of mitts to layer over your gloves between shots or there are plenty of golf mitt options that you can attach to your push or electric trolley. This layering approach helps retain heat while keeping your grip strong.
Snoods for added protection from the cold
A snood or neck warmer shields your neck and chest from the cold, providing an extra layer of warmth that’s easy to adjust during the round. Choose styles, such as:
Snoods are made from soft materials which easily slip over the head to provide warmth without the bulk. There are thicker and thinner options, so you can find something to suit you. As you can see from the Swing Out Sister snood above, some can have a multipurpose use, doubling up as ear warmers. Scarves are also an option, including this faux fur one from Green Lamb.
Style Tip: Again, like the beanies, there are lots of colour options and styles to choose from. Maybe find one to compliment your jacket or jumper or add some winter brightness to your wardrobe with a splash of colour.
Headbands for extra comfort
Headbands are a great alternative if you find hats too constrictive. These accessories are easy to slip on and off as temperatures change, and they work well with hairstyles that a hat might disrupt. Look for options made from materials that provide insulation without causing excess heat, such as:
These headbands are less bulky than beanies and fit comfortably with ponytails or longer hairstyles. Fleece offers great warmth and comfort, with moisture-wicking options helping to prevent overheating. As you can see, there are different headband styles available - as well as a number of colour options.
Colour Coordination Tip: Headbands in neutral tones (black, grey, or beige) can complement almost any outfit, allowing you to mix and match without much effort.
Waterproof hats for wet winter days
In our Rainy Day Ready feature, we shared some waterproof headerwear options. Here's a reminder:
Waterproof headwear keeps rain out of your face and maintains visibility. Many waterproof hats for women have a fleece inside lining to keep your head and ears warm while keeping rain off your face.
So there you have it, your winter golf accessories covered! If you're keeping on the course this winter then winter golf accessories are essential for your comfort. By choosing versatile, insulated items, you’ll be able to focus on your game rather than the cold (hopefully) 🥶!
