I've said this in other threads, but I'll say it here, too: I think this just all comes down to finding a tailor. It does not cost much to have a shirt or pair of pants altered, and if you have a good tailor it really won't matter what the standard fit of the brand is. As long as the original fabric and construction are decent quality, you'll end up with something that looks really sharp, and fits you just the way you like it. Makes it much easier to just shop according to fabrics and colors/patterns you like (this actually goes for way more than golf). I've got pairs of Oakley Take and Nike Dri-Fit Tour pants that I never  would have bought if I didn't plan on getting them tailored, but since I  had it done I love them.

Still, there are some brands that I lean toward that I can usually wear off the rack pretty happily (Bonobos and Dunning, especially).

I should also acknowledge that this is also easier if you're average height. I know that some tall guys have trouble with certain brands of shirt not being long enough--not much a tailor can do in that situation.

I mostly prefer Nike Golf stuff. If I had more money I'd get J. Lindeberg, but for now my black belt from them will have to do.

I  wear a lot of RL Polo, Tommy Hilfiger, and Lacoste off the course, but most of their materials make me sweat too much for golfing.

IZOD.  I love their performance wear and it's super discounted at the outlet by me.  

I agree J-Tyme, I try to dress nice and look good not necessarily to stand out.

Sligo for me. I really like the fact that you can create your own pant/shirt combo on their website. Very cool to know for sure that the colors will match. Now if they only had a hat line to finish it off.

I have a bit of everything but right now my favorites are Ralph Lauren RLX and Aquascutum.  Those are the only two brands I will purchase when their fall lines come out.

I really like the Travis Matthew line. The buttons go just high enough and the collars are sharp. I wish I could find the suspender polo. Has anyone seen this polo before?

Really interested in sub seventy but haven't seen in it stores yet.

There's nothing better than Puma. It's all I wear on the golf course and I have started wearing Puma outfits to work now also.

I like many brands... Puma, Adidas, Travis Mathew, Galvin Green, RLX, Polo, Lacoste and Hugo Boss for example... I have a thing in my head that really wants me to wear the same brand at one time, not mixing like puma and adidas... (trying to look like a star lol?) But seriously? Anyone else have this disease?

I use to wear more sportier/new tech clothing (i.e. Nike, TM, Ping, etc..), but I've been moving away from them.  Mostly been wearing slacks, classic top and a cool paperboy cap i found.

I'm surprised at the few mentions of UnderArmour stuff .............. but then again Miami, FL has two seasons, hot and hotter where the UA stuff excels.

UA stuff is mostly crap. They aren't doing anything different in fabrics vs the other brands. They just market better. Their moisture management and antimicrobial technologies are all topicals that wash out.

Are you referring to their outer layers (pants and shirts), or their base layers?

IZOD fits well, looks great, performs very well in heat and can be found for reasonable prices.  Adidas always appeals but is overpriced, as is Under Armour.
The slim fit stuff doesn't work for me but looks ok on ultra thin guys.  I dress understated but appropriate for my body type and shoot for a balanced, well coordinated look.
If price is no object, the only real upgrade would be Allen Edmonds golf shoes.  I don't want to feel my clothes when I golf. Comfort and the correct materials for the weather comes first. I like style, but function is first and foremost.
Of the youth oriented lines, Travis Mathew would get the nod.  Puma screams "look at me" a little too much for my liking. But that's subjective. If you're a type "A" personality and crave the action and attention, then Puma, Sligo and a couple of others work just fine. J Lindeman has some nice looking lines if price is no object.
They have some shoes that are truly stylish and classy for the right look.

I golf with a good buddy who plays to a 5, playing a couple times a month and  has a far better swing than I'll ever possess, but wears the cheapest clothes he can muster. Shirts untucked and rumpled, jeans if it's on a course he can get away with them and the cheapest Footjoy tennis shoe style that he can find on sale.  It makes a statement of it's own.
But his swing speaks of an elegance that 95% of folks can't match, no matter how expensive an outfit they drape on themselves.  For many, the nice threads are merely camouflage for an ugly swing..So I guess there's different ways to look at style.
