Cotton vs. Microfiber Pants


Recommended Posts

for the PNW
Just wondering about people's preferences regarding golf pants/shirts, etc, because it's time for me to buy some new clothes:

Cotton vs. Microfiber


Favorite brands and specific models (form and function)


Best places to buy them (or golf clothes in general)



Personally, I want to look nice, but I don't care about fashion. And I really don't want to spend a ton of cash that could be spent on new clubs and on lessons.

Links and photos appreciated.

I prefer the Microfiber pants/shorts. Very lightweight, breathable and don't wrinkle as easy.

 

Thanks. Good to hear that they are still breathable. I have seen a couple of versions that had a "rubbery" feel to them (if that makes sense). Not sure if I could deal with that. But as long as they are somewhat natural feeling, I think I may try a pair. Any particular brand recommendations?

Gotta go with microfiber, especially in the PNW. As often as I have to put on and take off my rain pants, microfiber is much more comfortable to wear under rainpants than cotton. Plus, it seems to melike the microfiber will stay drier than the cotton. I picked up a bunch of pairs of microfiber shorts at the Izod outlet in Northbend, WA. The Dockers Golf microfiber pants are also a good deal (about $25 at Fred Meyers). Hope this helps.

You guys rock!

 

Thanks for al the info. Sounds like MF is definitely the way to go.

 

knollwoodassistant, those C&B pants look niiiiiccccee. I may have to get a pair in the future. But for now, I think I'm going to give the Dockers MF pants a shot. Lots of recommendations and good prices.

 

What do you guys do for long sleeve/warmer shirts. On a muny, I would probably just grab a fleece jacket or vest. But I'm starting to go to nicer courses and I want to fit in. My game is already going to make me stand out, and not in a good way, so I don't want to also look like a slob.
