Would you call someone on the golf course wearing a Hogan's flat cap and using a wooden putter a hipster? I don't know what his pants were, but I believe they were skinny jeans. I also don't know what his tee shirt was, but it may have been an ironic graphic tee. It is also unconfirmed whether this individual was drinking Pabst Blue Ribbon or not. He did not smoke a pipe.

Golf has always been somewhat of an eccentric's sport. You don't think about it much these days because it's so mainstream, but in the past it used to have an attire and culture all it's own.

Doing my part to uphold that tradition I wear a big floppy hat that is anything if not goofy. It also provides a decent amount of shade for my mellon, but that's beside the point. I also have a wooden putter (it actually looks like a hybrid now that I think of it) that belonged to my grampa, but I don't use it. It has a nice lie though and you can putt with it just fine, but I keep it hanging on the wall as a keepsake.

I wear a hogan style flat cap, sometimes paired with a tight pair of poweder, blue polyester leisure suit pants.

Not sure I would call that a, "hipster". Some people just prefer the classics and old man caps and wooden clubs fit with that style.
I say to each their own, I could sit here all day and rip on the people who wear cargo shorts and golf sandals on the course, but I dont...

Whats in my :sunmountain: C-130 cart bag?
