There seems to be a bit of bitterness towards guys(like me) that like to dress sharp on the course, im of the thinking i like to look good when i play, and sense the bitterness comes from they grey "flannel" brigade,am i right?
Any way, what is your preferred get up? Flannels or funky?
 
Smart with some sort of colour co-ordination.

But then again I am a bit like a junior Gary Player, virtually all the golf clothes I own are black (not the best thing for those rare hot sunny days).
 
Prefer golf to a fashion parade.

As long as it is comfortable i am happy. Doesn't make me worse at the range if i am in jeans and rugby shirt. I think as long as you don't lok a wreck or council chav who cares. I play to enjoy my game not what others wear. I don't have a problem with jeans as long as they are smart and as for shorts if you like them fine. I tend to stick to shorts on holiday, over 100 at 9.00 in the morning last holiday so shorts only. My local club insists on white socks and smart shoes in the clubhouse with shorts, no thanks. Smart trainers would look better.
 
As I posted on the Black List thread I don't like the old men who wear jumpers that have been in their lockers for years.

Golf clothes shouldn't start the round being dirty, full of holes etc (same goes for shoes).


As for the clubhouse it depends on the occasion. But I don't see what's wrong with sitting in the bar after your saturday knock in a pair of (decent) jeans.
 
best golf trousers ever are Debenhams nanotech.
stain resistant, and they are 1" longer than normal trousers perfect for me as I can get a 34" leg for once and they fit (They have a stretchy hidden waistband!)
top those off with a nice polo neck + thin wool jumper if cold.
But muted colours (So I can wear them on other occasions)
But......

I really want to wear CARGO SHORTS!
the most perfectly designed apparel for summer golf, with all those extra pockets to carry tees, scorecards, gps, pitchmark repairer.
but stupid golf courses don't allow them...i hereby announce my campaign to get all golf courses to allow cargo shorts! You know it's only right! :)
 
lol...it was spain, 35degrees, and i wouldnt put an egg chasers shirt on my back,lol :)

Sorry couldn't resist, didn't think it looked like Scotland what I wouldn't give for some of that warmth now.

For me its slim & funky mostly black with a bit of colour
 
As I don't know what flannels are (other than for cleaning my face in the bath) and I don't do fashion or funky even 1%, I guess I'll have to offer "smart"....
 
I like to merge a neo-classical look with a contempary charlatan feel, perhaps fused with a bohemian transparency so it's Burton flannels circa 1994 with a Pringle poloneck circa 1990 with a PING sports shirt bought last year from TK Maxx.

They seek him here..... :rolleyes:
