Under Armour Playoff 3.0 Polo
A comfortable, well liked stretch golf polo; check sizing if moving from the older version.
We bought Callaway Men's Cooling Solid Micro Hex Short Sleeve Golf Polo Shirt, Bright White, XX-Large. It's no longer documented anywhere, so this page reviews the closest well-covered match. It is a widely sold, well documented men's performance golf polo with sun protection and moisture wicking, the same job and price range as the Callaway shirt.
The short version
- Golfers who play in heat and want a light, quick drying shirt
- Anyone who wants one polo for the course and for business casual
- Buyers who value stretch and freedom of movement
- You prefer a cotton or cotton blend feel
- You dislike a slight sheen on performance fabric
- You want the Callaway cooling micro hex texture specifically
What owners like
- Soft, light and breathable in hot weather
- Stretch keeps it from pulling during a swing
- Looks sharp enough to wear to the office or out to dinner
- Comes out of the wash ready to wear without ironing
Common complaints
- Sizing differs from the older 2.0 version, so some buyers had to change size
- A few find the newer fabric coarser or shinier than earlier runs
- Printed and striped colors can look less vivid than pictured

What it does
A lightweight stretch golf polo in polyester and elastane with UPF 40 sun protection and anti-odor treatment. This page covers it in place of the Callaway Cooling Micro Hex polo, whose maker and Amazon pages could not be read.
- Wicks sweat and dries quickly
- Anti-odor treatment
- Anti-pick, anti-pill fabric
- Four-way stretch so the shirt moves with the swing
- Sold in solid, stripe and printed versions
A good pick for golfers who want a light, stretchy polo that also passes for business casual. Retailer reviews are very positive on comfort and breathability; the main caveats are some sizing drift between versions and a fabric some find shinier than older runs.
