Throwback collar. Surf-inspired. Swing-ready form and game-ready function. The Oakley C1 Gradient Polo is built for golfers who refuse to compromise between performance and style. Drawing on the free-spirited energy of 1990s surf culture, it delivers a fresh, modern silhouette that works as hard as you do — from the first tee to the 19th hole.
Every design decision on the C1 Gradient serves a purpose: the reimagined collar is deliberately smaller to eliminate sartorial distraction, the slimmer cut keeps excess fabric from interfering with your swing, and a carefully curated set of functional details elevates the polo well above ordinary golf attire. The gradient mist/cement colourway adds a subtle, sophisticated fade effect that makes this polo stand out in the best possible way.
The C1 Gradient's standout feature is its reimagined throwback collar, drawing directly on the laid-back collar shapes of 1990s surf culture. Unlike traditional golf polo collars that can feel bulky or visually busy, this collar is deliberately compact and low-profile. The reduced collar size keeps peripheral vision clear and ensures that your focus stays precisely where it belongs — on the ball. The result is a cleaner, more modern look that reads equally well on the green or at the bar afterwards.
The slimmer, sport-focused cut of the C1 Gradient is carefully calibrated to reduce excess material in all the right places without ever feeling restrictive. Excess fabric around the torso and arms can bunch during the backswing and follow-through, creating unwanted drag and distraction. The athletic silhouette of the C1 Gradient eliminates this problem entirely, hugging the body in a way that flatters the figure at address and never interferes with club speed or shoulder turn throughout the full range of the golf swing.
Designed specifically with Oakley eyewear in mind, the built-in eyewear loop allows you to hang your sunglasses securely on the shirt rather than leaving them on the cart or in your bag. Complementing this feature is a discreetly hidden microfiber cloth sewn directly into the polo — perfect for a quick lens wipe between shots. Together these two details reflect Oakley's core philosophy of eyewear-meets-apparel design, ensuring your vision stays sharp and your lenses stay clean throughout an entire round without the need for separate accessories.
The C1 Gradient is powered by Oakley's proprietary O Hydrolix moisture management technology, engineered to actively move perspiration away from the skin and accelerate its evaporation at the fabric's outer surface. The result is a consistently cool, dry, and comfortable feel even during high-intensity rounds or warm-weather play. Combined with anti-pilling treatment that maintains the fabric's appearance over repeated use, the 100% polyester construction is purpose-built for the demands of repeated athletic performance without sacrificing the crisp, fresh look expected of premium golf apparel.
The split hems positioned on both sides of the polo are a subtle but highly effective functional detail. By releasing the hem at the sides rather than keeping it stitched flat, the C1 Gradient allows the fabric to move freely as the hips rotate through the downswing. This is a critical comfort consideration for golfers of all handicap levels, as a restrictive hem can subtly limit hip turn and reduce swing speed. The split hem design ensures that the polo works with your body rather than against it, from the widest driver swing to the most precise chip shot around the green.
Where most golf polos rely on a standard button placket, the Oakley C1 Gradient opts for a refined two-snap closure at the neck — a nod to its surf-influenced design DNA that simultaneously delivers a more secure and polished finish. The snaps sit cleanly against the chest without the risk of loose threads or popped buttons. The gradient mist/cement colourway reinforces the surf aesthetic with a smooth tonal fade that shifts from a cool, airy mist tone into a grounded cement grey, making this polo one of the most visually distinctive options in Oakley's C1 collection.
