DOUBLE DUTY
Stitch Golf’s latest entry in the travel realm is the Multi-Use Traveler, a bag that functions as an everyday roller duffle—until you need it to expand into a golf travel bag. With the pull of a single zipper and addition of a torsion bar for extra club protection, it’s a TSA-Approved golf travel tote, $498.

MEASURING UP
A good rangefinder offers distance and slope accuracy to help improve your club selection –and confidence —on any course. Bushnell’s Tour V 5 Shift also features sharp color, clarity and magnification as it locks onto targets; the ability to toggle between measuring slope and distance; and is magnetized so it attaches to the cart, $400.

Whether he wears it to play a round at his favorite course or just to sit in front of the fire, Linksoul’s cashmere hoodie in heather gray will become his go-to layering piece, $395.

STOCKING STUFFER
Club covers not only protect your favorite golf clubs but can add personality to your bag. They are also easy to lose, which is why Mitch Adler invented Drop Not, a lanyard with a strong retractable cord that attaches a head cover to your bag. They’re sold in sets of two, $20.

WALK ON THE WYLD SIDE
When three Boulder-based friends couldn’t find clothing that was sustainable, innovative, fashion-forward and functional, they created their own.

LEND AN EAR
Listening to music or calls is easier with earbuds, but it’s annoying if they fall out when you bend to pick up a golf ball. Skullcandy’s Push Active True Wireless earbuds solve that with a design featuring comfortable ear hangers. Controlled by your voice via an app, the device has a 44-hour battery life, $80.
