About the Golf Polo Reviews and Survey Process

All the golf polo reviews below are from independent golfers who were not paid or coerced to favor Lofty Llama over any of the other tested golf polo brands. We purchased and shipped golf polos from brands like William Murray Golf (Bill Murray Golf), Bad Birdie Golf, Proud90 Golf, Golf Gods, Hreski Golf, Loud Mouth Golf, Sunday Swagger, Tattoo Golf, and Kenny Flowers along with some of our own golf polo t-shirts to independent golfers around the country.

We asked each golfer to play rounds wearing Lofty Llama's golf polo and the other golf polo brands. We then asked the golfer to answer a series of questions about the quality of the golf polo, its value relative to price, and other important questions that we believe consumers want to know. 

We compiled all the surveys and subsequent information provided by the golfers below to showcase how Lofty Llama golf polos stack up against some of the bigger names in the golf polo industry.

The Golf Polo Survey Explained

We asked our golf polo testers to answer 19 individual questions about each golf polo and upload relevant photos and videos. We also asked to track when the polos were ordered and when they arrived to measure how quickly each golf polo brand delivers. In addition to the 19 questions below and the shipment information, we collected pricing information (including sign-up discounts promoted on the website) as well as the cost and available shipping options. We did our best to ensure a completely organic and level playing field with our review process.

Why are we facilitating these reviews?

The obvious question you may be asking is "why would we want to do these reviews/surveys in the first place?" — the short answer is that we believe Lofty Llama has comparable quality at a fraction of the cost of our competition, and we wanted to put our money where our mouth is to see where we stacked up. We do not expect to have the nicest quality golf polos in the industry, but we also don't feel like our quality is 1/3 or half our competition (which is where our price is comparatively).

So, if independent reviewers compare Lofty Llama to these other golf polo brands priced $70, $80, $90+ per polo, and we can stay close to their overall ratings at our $39.99 price — we're showing you real and immediate value.
