Sierra Madre Golf has introduced its new Sun Top Collection — a line of UPF 50+ protective garments that reimagines sun protection through a fashion-first lens. With this capsule, the brand seeks to solve the longstanding dilemma women have faced between shielding their skin and maintaining a stylish appearance.
Sierra Madre Golf's Sun Top Collection features three versatile designs, including a chic bolero that replaces bulky arm sleeves, a flattering asymmetrical sun top, and a breezy flyaway cardigan. All designs are crafted from the brand's proprietary fabric that blocks more than 97% of harmful UV rays while remaining lightweight, silky-soft, breathable, stretchy, and comfortable for all-day wear.
Available in four signature colors, each piece is designed to transition seamlessly from the golf course to brunch, the beach, or vacation settings.
