Here are Klinkenberg and Stephenson's golden rules of dressing for success on the fairways -- follow them and you may not score under par, but you will surely look good trying.
Here a shot of Tiger, Phil and Adam Scott all sporting conservative golf attire.
For Men:
- Always wear a collared shirt. A T-shirt is never acceptable.
- Avoid flashy colors or patterns. You don't want to clash with the scenery.
- Jeans and short shorts are never acceptable, though knee-length shorts can be worn in hot weather.
- Clothing should fit well and not hinder your game.
- Pants and shirts should be clean and pressed.
- Golf shoes should look like dress shoes, not sneakers. And they don't have flaps!
- Socks should usually be the color of the shoe, and ankle length with shorts.
For Women:
- Shorts and knee-length shorts are acceptable in warm weather, but pants are preferred. Check with the club about capri pants.
- Avoid gaudy or tacky clothes that could distract from the game. You don't want people screaming "FORE!" when they see your blouse.
- People don't want to hear jingle bells while walking or playing, so leave the charm bracelets and noisy jewelry at home.
- Spandex tube tops and spaghetti straps are a no-go.
