at first i thought it was old and tacky looking. but after a few looks its pretty cool sort of updated retro feel. def dont like the lavender cardigan though.

[TXjammer]

Maybe Roddy McDowell and Mary Tyler Moore?!?

[Fourputt]

I think they look fantastic.

Absolutely! The best the US has sported in years.

people these days actually make sly comments about the color of a certain clothing article...? what exactly is wrong with lavender? is it not macho or american enough or something?

Yeah-some serious insecurity going on here or something. Purple (lavender included) is the color of royalty. And besides, it looks great.

Now we can't have this sport going all queer on us. it's just not the american way. we need big oversized polo shirts with big parachute pleated pants.

Yeah-we've got a tenuous hold on our man-cards, a purple shirt might cause us to lose our fully exempt status...

Maybe you guys are being serious or maybe you're not, but if I was on the European team I'd be on the ground laughing right now.

I can hear Pavin's big Sunday speech right now: "Okay boys, we're rolling out the lavender this morning. Those Euros won't know what hit 'em. Hey, don't run off there Dustin, I've saved the best for last - I got my old friends at Cleveland to set each of you up with custom made Cleveland Vas clubs - that's right - even your clubs will be lavender. We'll be unstoppable, just like I was at Shinnecock!! Tiger, what's so funny - and yes Phil, they come in lefty."

Stop! Before I spit coffee on my keyboard!!! LOL

I think they look really smart. It's the poses and the physiques of the mannequins that make them look effeminate. They're actually really nice clothes.

[Where's the Cart Girl?]

Stop hating. Just because you can't pull an outfit off doesn't mean it's the clothing's fault.

I'm not a fan of the over/under style of the Sunday belt slack, but beyond that no complaints here. I like the lavender/black combination for Saturday and I'm pretty sure admitting so doesn't automatically make me a homosexual.. but what do I know?

I didn't know Jim Tressel was going to be playing practice rounds with the US though. Must've been a late captain's pick.

The far left one isn't so bad.

Not having Boo Weekly and Anthony Kim on the team let the designers go in a different direction.

it's a good look imo.

You're absolutely right of course - it's all fabulous - I'm so ugly!?!?!?!

[Koth]

I really like them. I would wear any of those uniforms, and pull them off well.

I am very very sorry if I offended anyone with my comment about lavender...I won't at this point tell you why lavender bothers me so much, and maybe some of you can really pull it off on the course, guess I should just shut up. But in my defense, I DID say I like the rest of the retro look! : ) My apologies.
