Few new apparel brands have made an impact on the sporting world like quite like Castore. The British apparel brand is already famous as football kit manufactures for the likes of Newcastle United and Rangers while also working closely with the England cricket teams, Harlequins rugby and McLaren Racing as well as sponsoring sports stars like Andy Murray, Owen Farrell and Adam Peaty to name a few. No doubt, sports fans across the world have already heard of Castore in the sports sphere.
Its rise in success has recently brought the brand onto the golf course and its SS24 collection has been designed with a focus on function and form, driving forward technical design and dynamic play through expertly engineered fabrics.
The Technology: Engineered For The Modern Golfer
The SS24 collection shares some of the Castore's key proprietary technologies that has made the brand stand out in the golf apparel space even in its relative infancy. The lightweight fabrics used are finished with both AerTek and OTek technologies that ensure maximum airflow and freshness as you go through a round of golf. OTek is an anti-odour treatment that keeps your apparel fresher for longer, while AerTek allows golfers to stay cool in all conditions, wicking moisture away from skin for rapid evaporation and prioritising comfort.
ProTek water-resistant technologies ensure enhanced weather protection for golfers who want the peace of mind that they'll be protected on the course regardless of the elements. This water repellent shield across all garments that use ProTek ensure your performance won't be hindered by the elements.
These high-stretch fabrics offer golfers the full range of motion through the golf swing, proving that Castore's golf clothing is built for the performance golfer who looks to play and enjoy the game in all conditions.
All of these technologies are combined in thoughtful designs and colourways that guarantee that you win in style both and off the golf course this season, with the broad range of garments in the SS24 collection covering golfer's needs for all weathers.
In detail: Castore's SS24 Golf Range
Our pick from the range is the Castore Classic 1/4 Zip Mid Layer. Classic by name, this quarter zip is also classic by nature thanks to its versatile and comfortable fit that can be worn alongside pretty much any other golf outfit. This piece is made using a high-stretch but thick fabric, meaning there is plenty of flexibility as you move through the swing but still a solid enough fabric to provide that added layer of warmth.
It utilises Protek water resistant technology and has a stand collar for a modern, fashionable and versatile look. Subtle Castore branding can be found both on the left chest and the upper back region, adding a clean finish to this versatile addition to any golfer's wardrobe. Without a doubt, this quarter zip looks as comfortable off the course as it does on it thanks to Castore's design choices. That Castore isn't a golf-only manufacturer of sportswear allows its golf range to blend in seamlessly off the course.
Elsewhere in the range, the Men's Golf Trousers have been designed to achieved maximum comfort and mobility, utilising woven stretch fabrics for unrestricted swing movement. Meanwhile, the Men's Golf Shorts are ready and waiting to herald in the start of the warmer weather and also benefit from the same stretchy fabrics and ProTek technology to protect you from the inevitable summer shower or two.
The Men's Essential Polo Top have been designed with side splits and a drop back hem for additional coverage and an enhanced range of movement, while the design is inspired by camp prints, presented in an abstract, digitalised format. Clean, classic colour options in the Essential Polo Top will allow them to be mixed and matched across outfits in your golf wardrobe.
