And why would they care what he's got on underneath his acceptable attire!!???  what next, pant inspection?

Don't be putting ideas in their heads!

 

[Pin-seeker]

Im guessing the people that have decided the dress code.

Seriously??????

Who knows - all depends on what club it is and how they are with their dress code.

God forbid that Dress code starts telling us what to wear *under* our visible clothes

By the sounds of it, some on here think they would be in their right! 😄 I think I'd go commando and not hesitate to drop em if challenged, despite where I was!

I thought that was for weekend use only?

 

[HawkeyeMS]

Not sure I'd say it was disrespectful, but I like to be smart with clean shoes.

 

[hovis]

There are some funny folk on here. Have you actually taken a step back and had a look at yourself?
Dirty shoes are disrespectful to others? ''have a day off '' why should you care? Unless his getting in your car after then don't let it bother you

 

[Hobbit]

Lol as your well aware me and hats don't work

Can I suggest a balacalava then...

 

[HomerJSimpson]

No way would I ever consider dirty shoes as disrespectful. Many times I've seen guys that look like they've raided a charity shop, with all sorts of ill fitting clothing (holes in jumpers etc) who have gone out and played better than handicap. It's not what you wear! If you subscribe into the look smart camp as I do fine. If not, as long as it's valid golf attire then crack on. Turn up, keep up and have fun

 

[virtuocity]

I lived a large part of my life caring about what other people thought of me and I was the worse for it. As such, I no longer structure my existence on how I present myself, using my personal values to guide me. In this vein, I am less judgemental about others, more open to those whose values resonate with my own. Unsurprisingly, appearance on a tee box in the middle of a field does not feature highly on how I perceive individuals.

If my muvky shoes wind someone up then I'm 1 up on the first tee..!:thup:

Thought you didnt like match play

Surprised how many forumers are content with dirty gear, be it shoes or clubs



Re the OP, whether they care or not the Manky Shoe Mob are certainly making a statement on the 1st tee... it probably says 'I care so little about playing golf with you today I couldn't even be bothered to clean my shoes'

Like many the first dress code I had to comply with was the school uniform and while I wasn't let loose with the iron etc cleaning my own shoes was certainly down to me, I'm pretty sure that had I turned up in shoes in a condition that I see prior to teeing off then the headmaster would have had words (& before anyone says its different, how exactly? they are both dress codes to be complied with)

An acceptable condition of the attire/dress code at your club is implied even if not stated, whether you are a member or guest

You can't really say 'they'll be dirty by the 3rd hole, that's not the point. Plenty here have said they also played organised rugby/football/cricket etc, who'd have turned up for a game with manky kit and expected the coach to say nowt because 'they'll be dirty again after 10 minutes' Really!

Golf is a self policing sport not just for the rules but in how we conduct and present ourselves

I'm not some kind of dress code captain crusader but for anyone to suggest crud covered shoes doesn't matter a jot is wide of the mark

Actually my position is that if your shoes are manky before we tee off it really doesn't matter to me... but it should matter to you!



As a side note, I've played with ladies many times, not once I have encountered one with manky shoes
