Anyone who’s ever owned a piece of golf outerwear knows that it it is almost always unapologetically golfy in style. There are unicorn pieces, though, that manage to transcend the sport, transitioning seamlessly off the course into the rest of your life, where no one will know you just played 18. This J.Lindeberg bomber sweater, worn by Viktor Hovland at this week’s Players Championship, is one of them.
J.Lindeberg, the Swedish lifestyle brand, is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, and has long sought to bridge sport, fashion and culture. As you can see in the photo above of Hovland wearing the bomber, this sweater has a quite few things going for it, but primarily, it’s the bomber silhouette that makes it sing. Bomber styles are very trendy in off-course fashion at the moment, but they aren’t something you see frequently in on-course apparel, mostly because the jackets tend to be made in materials that aren’t conducive to swinging comfortably, like leather or suede. J.Lindeberg solves this problem by using jacquard knit construction.
The pops of color on the cuffs, hem and collar, bridge JL logo on the back and snap buttons further validate the sweater’s lifestyle vibe, making this an easy, stylish piece to slip on and off when needed.
“This sweater is perfect for everywhere I go,” Hovland said. “It’s got a relaxed fit, but the cuffs are snug enough to swing in. I can put some work in on the range and then head straight to dinner, which I think is pretty cool and something I have always loved about the brand.”
A sweater like this can be dressed up or down — paired with tailored pants for a polished look, or baggy jeans for a casual happy hour. Such versatility is most welcome in the world of golf apparel.
