Q: We need white logo shirts for an event with the logo on the left sleeve. What do you recommend for 75+ shirts?

A: Consider these three options based budget and on the who your recipients are:

Red Rock Polo Shirt- 100% Pima Cotton Interlock, Short Sleeve. This is our own private label shirt and is far better than the typical shirts offered by promotional products companies. They are made in the same plant as other pricier brands.  Choose for tight budgets and when you have a cross mix of recipients ie sales, support staff, etc. It’s considered a mid-tier employee shirt.  However, t’s also given out at events with senior executive staff and they like it too. Priced at $26.50 each with logo.

Bugatchi Uomo Polo Shirt- (color- White & Asperine. 1525F57) 100% Egyptian cotton, double mercerized. This is a very light, very soft cotton and in white is somewhat see-through. For golf tournaments with executives this is a favorite. Alternatively, Fairway & Greene also has a mercerized polo, with a bit heavier cotton, though still lightweight. Priced at $42.50 each with logo. Call for specific quantity discounts.

Bugatchi Uomo Ribbed Shirt-  65% modal rayon, 35% polyester, sku 1643F57, 1643F50. This microfiber shirt is nice for both on and off the course. The ultimate in luxury feel is also a perfect look worn under your sport coat. As a golf shirt you’ll really like the way fabric breathes. If it gets wet, it quickly dries and still looks fresh. This shirt wears extremely well and looks like new over time. For golf tournaments with executives this is a favorite. Alternatively, Bugatchi has the same fabric in a CREW NECK. A lot of senior executives prefer the crew neck so we recommend you check with a few of the probably recipients to see what they wear.  Priced at $56.50 each with logo.

All of these short sleeve shirts are very soft, and stay that way wash after wash, without pilling or fading (if colored shirt). The collars don’t get all out of shape, though the Ribbed shirt will hold the original shape the best. Call for specific quantity discounts. We’ve included the dollar estimates above to help guide you to a budgeting decision, though prices may vary over time and by quantity ordered.

Even though my last post is on a very similar subject, I feel compelled to write about it again.

Yesterday I ran 5 miles in heavy humidity, and was rained on several times. I was wearing a hanes cotton t-shirt and moisture wicking running shorts. Needless to say, when I was done, the t-shirt was pretty wet, but the shorts were not. What’s the relationship with golf shirts?

I’m petite and in pretty good shape so I don’t sweat much when golfing, but many of our golf store shoppers do. I’m often asked which is the best shirt?

The fabric from brand to brand may list the same composition, yet they react very differently to wear and tear and the environment. Here’s my picks for those who sweat a lot:
1. Bugatchi performance golf shirts. The best in class for moisture wicking, the shirts provide UV protection and breathability. The unique fabric is like no other moisture wicking shirt we’ve tested, and in fact the material is made exclusively for Bugatchi.

2. Bugatchi modal rayon shirt. These can be found by entering “1643″ in the search bar in our online store. The shirts breathe and the fabric dries quickly. Technically they are not moisture wicking, but this shirt is exceptional for the golf course and under a sportcoat.

3. The Bugatchi Egyptian cotton golf shirt and any mercerized cotton shirts. Cotton is a natural fabric so it offers the most breathability. However, as my recent run proved, if you have excess moisture, the shirt will not dry out as quickly as others. This is a tournament favorite and is recommended for all golfers regardless of how much they sweat.

CEOgolfshop.com was selected to sell the complete collections offered by Bugatchi Uomo. Bugatchi Uomo is a luxury brand, with many items in the line made in Italy. Bugatchi offers resort and golf sportswear for men and women, plus a more extensive menswear collection. With a focus on the corporate executive market, CEOgolfshop will offer logo embroidery on all Bugatchi shirts.

“Our CEO customers want a higher quality shirt, and something different, than the ordinary logo shirt buyer,” says Christine Speedy, CEO. “In many cases, the logo will be a tonal color so that it blends in with the fabric.”

CEOgolfshop.com will initially launch with the core triple mercerized golf shirts, silk pants, microfiber shorts, and other popular items.
