Pro Tour clothing: Pushing the fashion boundaries at club level

[Chilled]

When do I get to wear fashion at my local club like they do on the tour? Namely hoodies, "tracky" style pants and collarless shirts.

Golf can still be progressive without losing it's traditional values.

Dress regulations are the single dumbest thing about golf. Just about anything goes at my local. Jeans, hoodies, t shirts etc. Hopefully more clubs start doing similar.

The pros make that fashion look cool. Overweight unfit fat ... blokes wearing that make the joint look like a gold coast caravan park in june.

Patrick Reed would like a word with you on this one.

Good luck getting that over the line @ Kooey Chilled.

Actually my home club used to be uber strict with dress code (like a tier 1) that is until Drummond took over the pro shop and they pocketed a tonne of pennant players from Highercombe

I saw trackie dacks on the driving range the other day - good to see ppl are coming to their senses, all we need now is flannies with the Winnie Blues in the front pocket

I profess it's probably not going to happen at my club. But certainly if you can prove these attires are golfing gear as advertised then surely there is an argument to be able to wear them. I would love to attempt to push the boundaries but I fear when I rock on a saturday with a collarless shirt I'd be told I can't play.

I always liked the Nike AeroReact shirts, but super expensive (over $100Au when I checked) so I passed. But if I had bought one I would have been tempted to try it on at the club.

I’m fine with the hoodie and the Nike shirts provided they are not those ugly v neck basketball style tops.

There still needs to be a line though IMO for private clubs. The day we allow Fubu homeboy clothing is the day I give up the game.

Apart from a sense of superiority and the ability to exclude people, what does a dress code provide?

Im not going down this rabbit hole 3PP. Im all for a relaxed set of rules but there needs to be line somewhere. Jeans and t-shirts get the tick from me. Poo pants and bling another story

and etiquette is optional as well?

Of course not. They’re not linked. Wearing a t shirt doesn’t make you play any slower or prevent you repairing pitch marks.

Poo pants? Are you volunteer to check if the old birds are wearing depends?

[thecollective]

Obviously an SA term not shared on the eastern seaboard.

Poo pants = baggy Fubu jeans mc hammer style

They are called poo pants as they are so baggy some ppl reckon they are designed to catch turds

A litmus test for detecting those who may not abide by the Rules of Golf out on the course.

Nicely dressed people don't do wrong things? Despots and sociopaths are often impeccably dressed.

Like a story a mate once told about a client he was defending, it was a DUI charge and he turned up in footy shorts, thongs and a torn Bundaberg Rum T-Shirt.

Suffice to say the judge was probably impressed by this move.

You started of objecting you cant wear tracky pants, which are truly objectionable, i wouldnt even wear them to put the bin out, and then it becomes the idea you cant wear the latest golf shirts by Nike?
big difference between the two.

not sure what are you really suggesting?

[Johnny Canuck]

Why can’t you wear a hoodie? I’ve seen plenty of rain jackets with hoods.

Hoods for rain ok, warmth not ok?

A balaklava would be warmer than a hoodie.

It appears you can wear a hoodie at Royal Melbourne, just so long as you cover up all your visible tattoos.

And the tattoos rule applies to both men and women ............ no discrimination there.
