Gifts for Golfers
Just in time for Father’s Day, here is a list of exciting golf gifts that celebrate wildlife and give back to the environment. Whether you’re shopping for a golfing aficionado who’s a practiced steward of the environment, or someone whose love for the outdoors begins and ends with golf, these gifts are great for golfers who care about the environment and love nature, and want to protect the land they play on. We’ve scoured the ever-growing list of brands that are championing sustainable linkswear, business practices, advocacy, and packaging for the best gifts this year, at a range of price points, for men, women, and junior golfers. We’ve found ingenious solutions to the conscious golfer’s dilemmas (like head covers made from upcycled old sails or vegan leather!) as well as planet-friendlier alternatives to sporty classics (like waterproof jackets and, of course, soft and stretchy biodegradable—but still durable—polos). Browse this list to buy your favorite golfer sustainable alternatives to their golfing go-tos, or introduce golfing geeks to what’s new and exciting in the sport from these golfers’-favorite eco-friendly gear and clothing brands.
Natural buttons crafted from seashells compliment the soft jersey, painted with graphic florals, which is made from recycled plastic water bottles and other repurposed and upcycled material scraps.
This collaboration between Melin and Tito’s was inspired by the National Park Foundation, but has a message golfers can appreciate. The rubberized patch on the cap reads "Protect where you play" and "Pour more fun." The five-panel cap is water-resistant, moisture-wicking and comes with a stylish carry bag. Plus, 100 percent of net proceeds for this cap are donated to your choice of nonprofit that Tito’s supports.
With pink flamingos and matching cheetah friends, your nature and animal loving golfer friends will appreciate this paradise towel that’s made from melted single-use plastics (like water bottles) and is inspired by the landscapes and beauty of Tanzania.
For your eco-friendly golfer who seemingly already has it all, this sustainable travel cover will complete their collection of water-resistant golf bags. Made from plastic water bottles with special pockets for just about anything you can think of, like a scorecard, cellphone, and rangefinder, and can be converted whether you’re carrying or using a cart on your travels.
This uber cool, retro-style micro-print polo’s design is inspired by Juan “Antonio” (Chi-Chi) Rodriguez, the groundbreaking Puerto Rican golfer. Like all Par X products, this thoughtful, cheery look is made in responsible, small batches that help to minimize waste that comes from rampant overproduction.
For your friends who love the look of leather, these headcovers are a great, ethical, animal-friendly alternative that still look ruggedly handsome, old-fashioned, and stylish. The nature-loving brand will also plant a tree in a forest in need with each purchase, featuring the chilled out “Bogey the Bear” decorating the cover.
Though this hydrangea blue water bottle looks and feels like plastic, but this stylish invention is actually made entirely from plants—such as wheat and bamboo. With each purchase, the company plants a native tree somewhere around the world to combat deforestation.
This sunscreen is vegan friendly, safe for children and adults, ideal for travel, and crafted using organic ingredients, including aloe vera grown in Ibiza, the Spanish island from which the company gets its name. And once you’re done, you can reuse or recycle the metal tin.
