Our favorite golf gloves of 2022
Whether you’ve just picked up the game or you’re able to shoot lower than your age, a golf glove is one the most essential and affordable pieces of equipment most golfers utilize.
Golf gloves allow you to better control the club, but to get the full benefit of a glove, you need one that fits properly. Before we get into the following list of gloves to try, here are a few tips and tricks to know you’re getting the right one.
First, a good golf glove should be tight. When your hand is spread naturally, the velcro tab should reach to the halfway point of the velcro on the other side across the back of your hand. With time, you’ll break in the glove and the velcro will reach all the way across. If the glove rides too far up your wrist, try a cadet size made for hands with shorter fingers and wider palms.
If you play a lot, especially in the summer, buy in bulk to keep your gloves fresh. Pro tip: Hang a glove on your cart or bag to air out between shots. And if you want a glove to last longer, never leave it in the hot and humid trunk of your car between rounds.
The list below has options for every budget and handicap, and even includes where to buy.

Callaway Weather Spann
Weather Spann Golf Glove (Callaway)
Price: $13.95 or 2-pack for $21.99
Why we like it: As the name suggests, the Weather Spann is made for use in all types of weather. Coming in at less than $14, the Callaway product is breathable thanks to its mesh knuckle pattern and durable due to its premium Japanese synthetic material.
Callaway Weather Spann: $21.99 PGA Tour Superstore / $22.95 at Walmart
FootJoy StaSof
StaSof Golf Glove (FootJoy)
Price: $23.95
Why we like it: For those who want a “tour-like” feel, FootJoy’s top-of-the-line glove offers just that. FJ’s premier glove is the Tour crew’s go-to. However, like most Tour-level options, this glove is not as durable due to the thin leather that allows for maximum feel.
FootJoy StaSof: $23.99 at PGA Tour Superstore / $23.95 at GlobalGolf
FootJoy WeatherSof
WeatherSof Golf Glove (FootJoy)
Price: $12 or 2-pack for $20
Why we like it: FootJoy’s WeatherSof glove features durability and comfort at an affordable price. Reinforced leather on the palm and thumb allows for more wear without tearing. A fantastic option to buy in bulk.
FootJoy WeatherSof: $19.99 for 2-pack at PGA Tour Superstore / $19.95 for 2-pack at GlobalGolf
NIKE Tour Classic III
Tour Classic III Golf Glove (Nike)
Price: $22.99
Why we like it: Working on your single-digit handicap? Want to look like Tiger Woods? The Tour Classic III has cabretta leather with stretch zones to provide maximum flexibility while remaining breathable.
NIKE Tour Classic III: $22.99 at PGA Tour Superstore / $23 at Dick’s Sporting Goods
Taylormade Stratus Tech
Stratus Tech Golf Glove (TaylorMade)
Price: $12 or 2-pack for $21.01
Why we like it: A favorite of the casual summer golfer and another good bulk option, the Stratus Tech provides one of the best combinations of comfort, fit and feel. The TaylorMade product uses Hypertec material to provide a better grip in hot and humid conditions.
Taylormade Stratus Tech: $21.99 at PGA Tour Superstore / $21.01 at Walmart
Taylormade Tour Preferred Flex
Tour Preferred Flex Golf Glove (TaylorMade)
Price: $19.99
Why we like it: As the name suggests, this is the go-to for Taylormade’s Tour pros, but with a twist. $5 cheaper than the company’s premier glove, the Flex uses the same premium leather as it’s $25 cousin but features enhanced flexibility.
Taylormade Tour Preferred Flex: $19.99 at PGA Tour Superstore / $19.99 at GlobalGolf
Titleist Players
Titleist Players Golf Glove (Titleist)
Price: $25.99
Why we like it: One of the most common gloves on the PGA Tour, the Titleist Players is the glove of choice for those who want exactly what the pros are using. Most recommended for the serious golfer, the amazing feel and control come at a price, as the glove is not quite as durable as some others on this list.
Titleist Players: $25.99 at PGA Tour Superstore / $25.99 at Dick’s Sporting Goods
Under Armour Iso-Chill
Under Armour Iso-Chill Golf Glove (Under Armour)
Price: From $16.99
Why we like it: Known for both its warm- and cold-weather gear, Under Armour delivers with the Iso-Chill. Premium leather on the palm allows for superior grip while a mesh back allows for maximum breathability and flexibility.
UnderArmor Iso-Chill: 16.99 at PGA Tour Superstore / $17 at Dick’s Sporting Goods
Wilson Grip Soft
Wilson Grip Soft Golf Glove (Wilson)
Price: $10 or 3-pack for $27
Why we like it: Another top seller to close out our list, the Wilson Grip Soft is made from different materials at various parts of the glove to enhance grip, feel and durability. It’s the cheapest option on our list, but it doesn’t play like it.
Wilson Grip Soft: $9.99 at Wilson / $26.99 for 3-pack at Walmart
