Ah the links. That humongous grassy green playing surface, with it’s rolling hills, mini-beaches, roughs, and traps. Millions of Americans and non-Americans get their clubs in order, and new balls cleaned ready to take on 18 holes of fun, competition, and usually beautiful weather. Before you can head out to the course for some drives, puts, and chips, you have to have the right gear. Some dress fancy, some casually, and some put very little clothing on at all, but in the end, every golfer needs his golf shoes. Recently, many golfers not named Tiger Woods have been signing deals and advertising new golf gear including cleats.

Now, Adidas has come out with a golf shoe that is considerably lighter than the average. At 10.6 ounces per shoe, which is lighter by 28% from the average, this golf cleat mean easier movement during a swing as well as between them. Professional golfer Sergio Garcia is modeling this line, and says, “I’m always looking to add comfort and lightweight elements to my game.” The major problem with the shoe isn’t the technology that went into it, but the mix of banana and fluorescent yellow that adorns the outside of the cleats. Fortunately for golf fans and potential customers, the shoes come in black, white, and yellow.

Authentic Store Buzz: Pro League Authentics has just come out with a new exclusive line of apparel. The Legends Line- Wilt Chamberlain. A fan of Wilt the Stilt, The Big Dipper, or maybe you just know him as Mr. 100. Wilt Chamberlain was a basketball legend, considered by many to be the most athletic and talented player to ever strut onto the NBA hardwood. The big man, who wore number 13 and was famous for wearing the sweatband on his head, once dropped 100 points in Hershey, PA. PLA has the exclusive line of shirts of the Wilt Chamberlain line.

Size Charts

Select your brand and style to read more about how your purchase will fit:

Use these tips as a general guide when finding your measurements:

Chest/Bust: With your arms at your sides, measure around the fullest part of your chest, across shoulder blades and under arms.
Waist: To measure your natural waistline, wrap the tape so it intersects your navel. Keep tape flat, but comfortably loose.
Hips: Stand with your heels together and measure the fullest part of your hips. Make sure the measuring tape is level all the way around your body.
Inseam: Stand up straight, and start the tape measure high in your crotch. Straighten the tape down the inside of your leg to the bottom of your ankle.
Hat Size: Measure your head about a half-inch above your eyebrow where the hat will sit. If you are unsure or between sizes, buy the larger size.

American Needle Fitted Hats

If you do not know your size, first determine where on your head you want to wear your hat. Usually it is worn about a half-inch to an inch above the eyebrows and/or just above the ears. Have a friend hold the tape measure (cloth, plastic, or download a printable version here) at the point where you want the hat to rest on your head. Insert the tip of your little finger between the tape and your head. Record the measurement and find your Fitted Hat size using the chart below. This should provide you with a comfortable fit.
