Fall golf can be some of the best golf: The turf is usually healthy to create good playing conditions; the foliage adds color and beauty, and the later you play into the fall the more it feels like you’re getting away with something, like you’re a kid again, sneaking in an extra treat before bedtime. However, being uncomfortable on the course can derail a glorious day of fall golf. If you’re too cold, you’re going to be thinking more about your chill than enjoying your round. Having cold-weather gear is the right place to start. If you’re playing courses whose dress codes allow leggings, fleece-lined leggings are a great piece of clothing to wear during cold-weather rounds because they provide warmth while being easy to move in. Here are five options that will keep you warm, at various price points.
Arcteryx Essent Warm High-Rise Legging This popular outdoor apparel brand thought of elements beyond the cold when making these leggings: The fabric is brushed nylon to make them warm next to the skin and has been treated on the exterior to repel water, so you’ll stay dry if it starts to drizzle during your round. There is one pocket at each thigh. To help make these high-waisted leggings fit more securely, there is an adjustable elastic drawstring at the waist. $140 | Arcteryx Buy Now 
Alo Yoga Winter Warm High-Waist Nocturne Legging This is a high-quality option with a flattering fit. The fleece lining provides extra warmth, but the material is still breathable, so you won’t overheat. The medium level of compression will keep these leggings in place throughout your round. The one drawback is that these don’t have any pockets. To get around that issue, store tees in your hair and slip your glove into the waistband. $118 | Alo Yoga Buy Now 
FootJoy Women’s Fleece Legging Often with leggings, you give up the convenient pockets of your golf shorts and skirts, but not with this pair. FootJoy’s fleece legging has one back pocket to hold necessities like your glove. The fabric is warm, antimicrobial, as well as wicking, so it’ll move moisture away from your body if the weather turns and your round gets warmer. $95 | FootJoy Buy Now
