Over the past few years, Sunday Swagger has carved out a unique niche in the golf apparel world—blending bold personality with modern performance fabrics. Known for their eye-catching designs and comfortable fits, the brand has become increasingly visible on courses across Chicagoland and beyond.
We recently put three of their pieces to the test: the Men’s Performance Q-Zip (Nightfall), the Crew Chief | Pennzoil® Button Up 2.0, and the Gilroy’s Greatest | Guinness® Button Up 2.0. Here’s how they stack up.
Men’s Performance Q-Zip – Nightfall
The Nightfall Q-Zip is a departure from Sunday Swagger’s louder prints, offering a sleek, understated look that fits seamlessly into any golfer’s wardrobe. Since the quarter zip is standard equipment for most male golfers, my closet is full of them. But I’ve never received as many compliments as I have while wearing the Nightfall Q-Zip. It’s my go-to quarter zip right now.
Men’s Performance Q-Zip
What We Liked:
Versatility: Perfect for early morning rounds, range sessions, or even casual wear off the course
Comfort: Super soft, lightweight material with just enough stretch for a full swing
Layering: Ideal as a mid-layer without feeling bulky
This is the kind of piece every golfer needs—a reliable go-to when temperatures fluctuate. While Sunday Swagger is known for boldness, the Nightfall proves they can do subtle just as well.
Crew Chief | Pennzoil® Button Up 2.0
This shirt brings a completely different energy. The Pennzoil Crew Chief Button Up 2.0 leans into a motorsports-inspired aesthetic—bold, confident, and designed to stand out.

If you’re the type of golfer who enjoys expressing personality on the course—or showing up to a charity outing with something different—this shirt delivers.
Gilroy’s Greatest | Guinness® Button Up 2.0
The Guinness Gilroy’s Greatest Button Up 2.0 might be the most fun of the three. With a lighter color palette and playful design, it strikes a perfect balance between bold and approachable.
