Best sun protection golf gear in 2023: Hats, shirts, sunscreen

Oars + Alps Hydrating Antioxidant SPF 50 sunscreen

Summer is here which means its time to prepare for the hottest and sunniest days of the year.

No matter if it’s 80 degrees, 120 or somewhere in between, you need to have sun protection to avoid sunburns, UV damage and even skin cancer.

John Hopkins Medicine recommends applying water-resistant sunscreen with no less than 30 SPF to exposed skin every two hours. They also recommend using a lip balm that has 15 SPF. Applying sunscreen before you tee off and when you make the turn is a good habit.

With many brands making breathable long sleeve shirts and pants, opting to wear sleeves/pants can save you from overexposure over the course of the golf season.

Check out some of our favorite products to keep you safe in the sun, all summer long. Be sure to check out our favorite sunglasses and hats for the 2023 golf season to keep you looking and feeling cool.
