After my recent eBay escapades in which I found some cool vintage golf bags and hats, it’s time we start the hunt for some sweet, vintage golf polos.
You can spend hours at the Goodwill going through racks on racks. Or you could spend a few minutes on eBay and find a host of nostalgic pieces that will upgrade your wardrobe and have the cart girl wondering why you look so old and mature.
Pro tip: Use laundry scent beads to get rid of that “vintage” smell.
No kidding. Vintage is in style and there are plenty of options to go around. Here are just a few of the vintage golf shirts I found on eBay.
Vintage Ashworth Golf Polo
Can we have a list of vintage golf shirts without mentioning Ashworth? This slick geometric pattern is about as nostalgic as it gets. This shirt is 100-percent cotton and in great condition. You can pick up a host of Ashworth polos for solid prices on eBay.
Vintage Izod Floral Golf Polo
Another funky pattern makes the cut. This vintage Izod polo may be reminiscent of my grandmother’s couch but it’s so cool. Izod is another brand you can pick up for the low, so don’t sleep on their vintage polos!
Vintage Slazenger Masters Polo
You knew this one was coming. How can I make a list of vintage golf polos without including a vintage Masters polo? This Slazenger piece is in great condition and is much cheaper than any current stuff from Augusta National.
Vintage NIKE Tiger Woods Polo
Let’s pour one out for NIKE and Tiger. Only half joking! Doesn’t this make nearly every NIKE x TW piece vintage? I digress. This polo is the perfect way to show off your Tiger Woods fandom. I love the metal sleeve emblem and the “Tiger Woods Collection” tag.
A Few Words of Caution
- Clean vintage clothing you buy before you wear it. You never know where it’s been and what environment it’s coming from. Trust me: you don’t want bed bugs.
- Be on the lookout for fakes. Scammers know people are willing to pay top dollar for vintage. If the deal is too good to be true, it probably is.
- Hand washing is always recommended, especially if the piece is really old. You don’t want your vintage polo coming unraveled in that mean ol’ washing machine.

Conner, looking at your picture I’m pretty sure I have some vintage clothing in my closet that’s older than you! I don’t need to go to EBay for vintage clothing, it’s right in my closet.
