ridiculous outfits?

[jcbenefiel]

so i recieved a pair of checkered patterned knickers and a matching sweater as a gift from my grandfather i was thinking of trying them out. does anyone else have a ridiculous outfit they sometimes wear and or do poeple object to such extravagance?

[Dave2512]

Nothing crazy in my closet but I have been tempted to rock the knickers. Anyone that objects to people having fun is lame. Go for it.

i wanted to get an outfit w/ knickers and such, but my wife will never let me out of the house with it.   a guy in my men's club wears one on tournament days and it seems pretty cool.   i say GO FOR IT!

I'm tempted to wear something simular to my unit's golf tourney, just for laughs.

Would I wear that on just any given Sunday?  Probably not...

hey...whatever floats your boat!   It won't bother me any...LOL

I mostly stick with manly solids and steer clear of the girly colors...no pinks or fushcia for me, etc, etc.

I had a burnt orange shirt I pulled out of the closet that I thought I was pairing up with a pair of black pants. Wondered why the girlfriend of the guy I got paired up to golf with (she was just along for the ride) was giving me strange looks. Looked down and in the sunlight saw that the pants were purple. I certainly took acceptance to the look and we got a good chuckle after I explained what happened.

How did I end up with dark purple pants? Dark store. I'm pretty conservative with clothes.

That's funny because I remember way back when, my grandfather gave my dad a pair of plaid/checkered pants as a joke. Early 90s... Back when they were considered "Old Folks" gear.

I usually wear black pants but will rock my orange or green pants as well. I've done a green/yellow, orange/orange, and other combos before. No one ever cares. I just have to expect Rickie Fowler comments, which is fine with me.

Most recent Golf Digest has a fashion-makeover page for three male golfers. Idea is to brighten up the outfits, have better fitting shirts, and dump pleated trousers/shorts for a slimmer look. (Going to the gym also helps the slimmer look, but they didn't go there.) Also, we learn it's OK to wear a white belt if you have white slacks.

I'm wondering, if our outfit is too plain or too old-style, does the starter have fashion-police authority to give us a one-stroke style penalty on the first tee?

I usually don't play golf in brand new clothes unless I'm at some upscale private club with a mean dress code. Otherwise, it's slacks and shirt several months old that are probably starting to show some rub marks.

GD needed some filler until next time they tell us to dump all our golf clubs more than 18 months old.

How bout red leather g-string with a bunny tail. Top it off with a gag ball. Sent from my Holographic Touch Android.

Nothing looks better than my + 5s and jaunty cap if any one says anything I just say it is my tribute to a great golfer.

I would look like a poor mans Babe Ruth if I wore those kinda pants, lol

Babe Ruth looked like a poor man's Babe Ruth.

I remember seeing Payne Stewart at a practice round during the 87' us open not wearing knickers and I didn't recognize him until he was much closer, some of the color schemes were a little wild but some looked good, I think the chicago bears look was a good one as was the patriots and this from a raiders fan.

I told my wife when I reach a 10 HC I'm gonna get a crazy knicker outfit. She just rolled her eyes......

[VegasRenegade]

I wear them when I go out to a very upscale course. It keeps everyone from looking at my swing. I is kind of a hoot and I think I play better for some reason.

I definitely want to get something along the lines of Daly, Poulter, but just for giggles, not everyday wear.

I do think it is funny though when I see a 50 - 60 year old guy wearing the bright orange flat brim cap.

I used to wear plus-fours (what most people in America would call, "knickers") and Tam O'Shanter caps as an homage to my then favorite golfer, Payne Stewart but nowdays I have a more conservative golf style: simple polos (usually with the logo of one of my fav sports teams on it) and either khaki, white or black dress pants.

I couldnt imagine wearing some of those Loudmouth pants on the golf course, its just not my style.
