The 2026 Presidents Cup uniforms might just put the Ryder Cup to shame

Despite having the weight of two multi-billion-dollar fashion juggernauts behind them, the 2025 Ryder Cup uniforms largely went down with a pretty muted reception.

Team USA's Ralph Lauren garbs once again laid it on a little too thick with the patriotic motifs, while the more understated, incredibly expensive Team Europe uniforms, designed by Italian luxury brand Loro Piana, came under fire for the second Ryder Cup running – this time for their construction and iffy collars.

This isn't a problem, however, likely to affect 2026's major team event. The Presidents Cup will return to American shores next year, seeing Team USA host a rest of the world team at Illinois's storied Medinah Country Club. And while we're far from knowing the teams, we do know that the dual outfitters of last year's Presidents Cup, apparel brand B.Draddy and outerwear manufacturers Zero Restriction, will return to provide the uniforms once again.

Known for their relaxed, modern take on classic country club style, the general aesthetic of B.Draddy is one of understated elegance. To borrow a phrase from the fashion world, one could even call it quiet luxury – not just because their clothes are generally more minimalist in nature, but make use of more luxurious fabrics that rely on the temperature-regulating benefits of natural fibres rather than synthetic materials. Their polo shirts are typically made from naturally breathable, soft Peruvian Pima Cotton, while their knitwear is crafted from Italian merino wool and Scottish cashmere.

All of this lends the collection an aesthetic far more akin to the golf clothes of the game's golden era – back before polyester began its invasion of the game and the 1/4 zip pullover was ever a thing. It's no co-incidence that one of the PGA Tour's most stylish players, Victor Perez, plies his trade in B.Draddy garb.

It's of course much too early to speculate on just how the 2026 Presidents Cup uniforms will look, but we can get a rough idea of the brands' general tone and style from the uniforms they provided last year, which relied on minimalist insignia, smart prints and understated tones of blue and red for the US team, offset against the black and gold of the Internationals.

We'll have to wait until next year to see the full uniforms in the fabric, but until then, you can get familiar with the two brands at B.Draddy and Zero Restriction.
