White trousers

[Deleted Member 1156]

Why is it that every time someone turns up wearing white trousers people think either a) This guy must be good or b) knob ?

40 mph wind and torrential rain here so anyone wearing them today is a knob

On the rare occaision I wear mine I usually play like a knob....

Its whats called a dichotomous question

Why's that bloke wearing white trousers....?

 

[Imurg]

Can't they be both.??

 

[User20205]

No issue with white trousers. I wouldn’t go for them, despite being a playa & a knob?? too hard to keep clean.
I have a massive issue however with loud mouth and other type trousers.
They speak volumes!!!
white belts!!! Also

if they're thinking b, maybe it's because his trousers are too tight....

With light coloured trousers/shorts and a light coloured top, how can you wear a dark belt? ?
White all the way ?

Goes with the man bag, right?

Are you Ian poulter circa 2004?

Always thought there were three criteria to be satisfied before men wearing white trousers was acceptable (i) Cat 1 player (ii) aged 25 or under (iii) skinny build.

It used to be the same with white golf shoes in the 1950/early60's.

Mind you would Gary Players pair of trousers with one black leg and one white one split the vote.

I remember wearing powder blue trousers and a light pink polo in the 1970's for a scratch 36 holer in Hants.
Astonishing rescue shot from a half filled ditch at the 2nd hole resulted in me looking like a greater spotted exotic bird for the remaining 34 holes.

I wouldn’t wear a black belt and brown shoes formally, so I wouldn’t wear white shoes and a black belt.

Therefore white belt it is.

I've recently acquired a pair of said trousers courtesy of my better half. I think it was maybe a hint that when I was (ii), I was also (iii) ! ?

i have a pair the wife bought me for a holiday some 6 years ago, never been worn still hanging in the wardrobe with the tags still on, not good enough, slim enough to ever wear them for golf

Even then it's pushing it ?.

It is one of those where you shouldn't bother deliberating, it is just how it is. I tend to agree with post 5 as well.

I like them in principle but hard to find a decent pair. Had to recently return a pair I bought online as they were completely see through. I mean, even the lining of the pockets was visible through the material - how on earth they could sell them is a mystery to me.

I played with a bloke on Saturday, he was wearing white shorts. They were unfortunately see through every time he bent down, even more so after a ‘brief’ shower of rain!
Blue & white stripes incase you were wondering?

I bet you're one of those people who wear white socks and black shoes.

If you're wearing white shoes and a white cap it is de rigeur to wear a white belt. Certainly not a dark belt that would be a serious faux pas. Potentially you could consider a light colour with a discreet motif or a bright colour to accentuate your waistline and décolletage. Add a statement buckle to create an element of je ne sais quoi, and that is your chic look fit for the links or catwalk.
