THERE’S A LOT you could say about Tiger Woods in the ’90s — prodigy, game-changer, record-breaker. But what doesn’t get nearly enough credit? The fits. Oversized polos, pleated trousers, mock-necks, and some of the cleanest layering the golf world has seen. And let’s not even get started on the vests and belts — peak Tiger was making golf-core cool before most of us even knew what that was.

With fashion’s love for a good throwback right now, it feels like the perfect time to bring those looks back — particularly the easy, chic vests and those tucked-in, oversized polos.

Below, we narrow down a few of our favourite Tiger looks that prove why his ’90s style deserves a revival.
