Eco Trophy t-shirt review by Whitley Golf


Golf Refugees Carbon Neutral ‘Trophy’ T-Shirt

We’ve got our hands on a fantastic golf t-shirt from Golf Refugees. Not only is it extremely comfortable and great looking, it is also good for the planet. It may not conform with many clubhouse dress-codes but it will provide you with a great off-course addition to your wardrobe. We’ve got some great images — take a look and see if it will be finding its way into your collection this summer…

What they say:
As well as being 100% organic, certified by The Soil Association. All of our new t-shirts will also be carbon neutral. This means that they’ll only be manufactured using sustainable energy generated purely from wind and solar power. The Carbon Trust calculated that our Men’s size large shirt, cuts CO2 emissions by over 89%.

What we say:
Although not many clubs will allow you to actually wear it out on the course, this fantastic golf t-shirt from Golf Refugees will prove to be a great addition to your off-course wardrobe.The Trophy tee, as it is called, combines a hilarious logo (which says: ‘No Trophies, So What?’) with comfortable and carbon-neutral cotton to provide a great way of keeping stylish and comfortable away from the links.

“What’s more, it comes available in four different colours and four different sizes so people of all shapes and tastes can enjoy it.”

But what makes it so appealing is the way it is made.From the very start, Golf Refugees ensure that it not only meets ethical and environmental guidelines, but endures a manufacturing process which saves fuel, money and ultimately the planet.The organic cotton which is used is grown to Soil Association standards and each final product is carbon neutral. This means that throughout manufacture, the t-shirts only use solar and wind-powered machinery — the result is no wasted energy, a cheaper finishing product and a company which is helping combat climate change. In terms of cutting carbon dioxide emissions, Golf Refugees say they save over 89 per cent.

“The Trophy tee, as it is called, combines a hilarious logo with comfortable and carbon-neutral cotton to provide a great way of keeping stylish and comfortable away from the links.”
What’s more, it comes available in four different colours and four different sizes so people of all shapes and tastes can enjoy it.A very stylish and contemporary t-shirt for the modern golfer.

To sum up…
A fantastic-looking, comfortable and ethical t-shirt which will be a great addition to the modern golfer’s off-course wardrobe. It is very funny, too, but may not appeal to the traditional golfer. Definitley one for the modern player.
