As a counterpoint to the Best Purchase thread,how about we all fess up to our worst vanity purchase,or just plain baaaad buy!

I will start with a couple of beauties in a long long list.

1, A pair of red (Imean RED!) nike shorts in Portugal 2 years ago. They were way way too tight (had to get mates to pick ball out of hole tight) and only fitted after a dose of dysentry.

2, My Pink and White MyJoys. I thought I looked sooo cool until I rocked up at Benamor last year to play with my mate who is President and the Pro. The Pro (top bloke) took one look at my feet and said "F*** me you must be good to wear those" then after suggested I put them away until I had a game to match.

And there are more....so many more!!

Hahaha, i was just trying to think but ave not been round the block yet.

To be fair my worst buy aint that bad, just a plain blue callaway jumper with white down the sleeves.

Only cost me £15 and bought it because i forgot my jumper on the day and it was well cold.

I dont think al ever wear it again after seeing it on a pic! Reminds me of a school jumper!

J Lindberg sweater. It was so cool, it was classic old, grey V neck.

But, and it's a big but, it was too small. Way too small.(and I'm only a 12 stone weakling!!)

But it would have looked really, really good!

old school baby!!

I also bought some Footjoy realfit shoes - but they're really comfy (for now)!!

Hopefully they won't fit into this category!???!

Probably my blue stromberg trousers (with blue trim) matched with a pair of baby blue and white myjoys and a light blue callaway top for the Masters at my club last year.

Not the look to shoot +5 and +8 in
