ABSTRACT:
A sport shirt or other garment is provided with a load-distributing shoulder yoke for relieving the strain resulting from carrying a golf bag or the like. The load-distributing yoke comprises an outer layer of fabric and an inner layer of filler material below the outer layer of fabric, with the filler material serving to cushion the shoulders and upper torso of the wearer against the weight of the golf bag strap. The filler material preferably comprises a breathable, low-density material for venting body heat and evaporating moisture. The load-distributing yoke may further comprise a bottom layer of fabric below the inner layer of filler material.
