“Our Spring 2023 Collection pays homage to our PXG customer – the ultimate golfer. The seasonal collection is made to move, highlighting and modernizing golf essentials in a bold and vibrant way. This collection offers a variety of distinct, elevated pieces that provide maximum performance for both on and off the course.”- Renee Parsons, PXG Apparel President and Executive Creative Director.
With a focus on comfort and performance, this effervescent collection is dynamic with innovative fabrics and designs, such as shadow knitwear with enhanced breathability, perforated performance mesh polos, sporty dress and skirt silhouettes, and three new fabric weights for temperature control.

The lightest weight, “breathable” option is engineered to keep the wearer cool and able to withstand even the hottest day on the links.
For Spring 2023, the Sonoran Desert’s native Saguaro cacti inspired a light green colorway, along with a new fabric design. The PXG Sharp Cactus print has been reconceptualized in a bold, geometric new pattern. This distinct design brings an element of dimension and heritage to the collection. Additionally, new innovative designs such as a 3D interlocked PXG logo and embroidery details, along with vivid pink and green hues infuse energy and adaptability into every style. Intentionally designed to be worn interchangeably with past seasons, PXG Spring 2023 fits seamlessly within any golfer’s wardrobe.
