The ifrothgolf review
The Lindum is Ping's bread-and-butter short-sleeve golf polo. It is built from 100 percent recycled polyester with the brand's SensorCool treatment to wick sweat, dry fast and shrug off creases, and it has a touch of stretch so it does not bind across the shoulders mid-swing. UPF 40+ sun protection and a ribbed collar with the small Ping Eye logo on the shoulder round it out. It comes in a wide spread of colours and a full size run from S to XXXL.
What's great
It nails the basics that matter on the course. The fabric genuinely moves moisture and dries quickly, so it stays comfortable through a warm round, and the stretch means you forget you are wearing it during the swing. The styling is clean and understated, the branding is subtle enough to wear off the course, and the recycled construction is a nice bonus. At its typical street price it is strong value for a name-brand technical polo, and the colour and size range make it easy to get the fit and look you want.
Worth knowing
This is a classic, slightly relaxed cut rather than a slim athletic fit, so if you like a tapered, body-hugging look you may want to size down or look elsewhere. The polyester feel is functional rather than luxurious, it does not have the premium hand of pricier merino-blend or cotton-feel polos, and lighter colours can show sweat. RRP is around 45 pounds but it is very frequently discounted, so paying full price is rarely necessary.
The verdict
A dependable, fairly priced performance polo that does exactly what it promises without fuss. Buy it for the fabric and the brand reliability, not for a fashion-forward slim cut, and try to grab it on one of its regular discounts.
