One night we were looking into sustainable golf fashion when we came across the stylish golf gloves of LussoVerde. The striking design was the first thing that caught our attention. But we quickly learned that there was so much more to LussoVerde than that!
LussoVerde Golf, an Australian company, creates travel-inspired golf gloves while doing their part for a better world.
LussoVerde translates from Italian into “Luxury-Green”, giving the company a meaningful name. “Luxury” for their awesome and high-quality gloves. And “Green” for the awareness of eco-friendly products and sustainability, and for golf greens!
Sounds great? We think so!
How does sustainability work in regard to golf gloves?
LussoVerde uses materials from recycled plastic bottles to produce a line of fashionable men’s and women’s golf gloves! Just imagine that- using recycled plastic and turning it into beautiful and colorful golf gloves!
Like so many of you, we have become much more conscious of what we purchase and try to shop and support eco-friendly companies and products. While traveling the world, we have realized how much plastic there truly is. Plastic is ending up in our oceans and polluting our environment. We have also seen first-hand the deadly threat that plastic is to animals!
So, when we found LussoVerde and read about their VERDE promise, we knew that we had found a perfect match. Their products, as well as their mission, sounded awesome to us!
The efforts that LussoVerde takes to produce their products while protecting our environment make us extremely proud to have them as our partners!
Organic and natural materials, of course, are always the best option for the environment. But, by taking plastics that may end up in the environment, and upcycling them into a new product, LussoVerde is able to remove plastics. This in turn reduces additional waste in our ecosystem!
What is the Verde promise?
From manufacturing to delivery, LussoVerde is committed to leaving as small of a footprint as possible in doing its part to help save the planet.
Their products are ethically made by partnering with ethical factories.
The product incorporates recycled materials.
The packaging is 100% plastic-free.
And the delivery of their product is 100% carbon neutral.
The LussoVerde Collection
We use the gloves, and they look great! We love the look of the gloves and find that they are such a refreshing and colorful break from boring black or white. But just as important, they feel great, and they provide a solid grip on our clubs.
Menekse decided on the “Leopard” and the “Malawi” glove. The “Leopard” glove just looks like Africa. When we think of Africa, a Leopard is one of the first things that come into our minds. The “Malawi” glove is themed after an African Cocktail.
Tip: Try the Malawi Shandi on hot summer days. It is a refreshing non-alcoholic drink. Perfect for after a round of golf.
The Malawi Shandi recipe
Ingredients:
200ml of Sprite
200ml of Ginger Beer or Soda Water
Bitters (Alcohol-free)
Ice
Orange or Lemon slice
50ml Orange Juice
Directions:
Fill glass with ice

Add the Sprite and Ginger Beer/Soda water. Make sure it doesn’t disturb the orange juice in the bottom.

Garnish with your orange or lemon slice
