Jon Rahm - Fashion Disaster

[shinobi]

As much as i admire streetwear and nice sneakers I was NOT a fan of that shirt but at least everyone can agree that Jon's gf is pretty hot.

Now his wife

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but the shirt would look good on someone with a thinner frame etc. I know others have said this, but Rahms body is just so odd for an athlete...literally nothing looks "good" on him. I don't know what you could put in him to make him look good.

A body bag (XL) LOL.

Geez guys it’s not like he’s wearing a garbage bag and swim trunks out there. Sounds like the same people who were “fat shaming” JDay as well.

Personally I think he looks fine. I’m more that body type than the “Adonis golf bod” type people around here seems to be or want to be, so I guess I have a biased opinion.

Yah “maybe” certain things could be a better match for his body type but who cares. If he feels confident in what he’s wearing, great. Dude is played well today so I don’t think he’s lacking confidence right now.

Nah, it's way simpler than that.

The more modern , slim fitting golf clothes look a little uncomfortable on the guys who are a big bigger in the mid-section. Same way the baggier, longer in the sleeves and roomier in the body golf shirts don't look right on the thinner guys.

I hope Rahm doesn’t read this as he is known for having that Spanish fiery temper. They’re not immature jag bags guys they just have that Spanish fiery temper.

We both prob come from an era when skateboarding was anti corporate influence and anti mainstream, and mainstream was anti skateboarding.

He looks great today (Rahm). I like the shirt, pants, shoes combo. Adidas could do something great with the guys they have. Johnson, Schauffele, Rahm all are shaped differently, they should cater to their unique body types.

As someone with more of a "husky" build, I sure wish some of these companies would focus more on making clothes that actually do fit bigger guys. I'm a former professional athlete and still in decent shape in my late 40s, but the trend towards the slim, shape-hugging styles simply dont work for guys like me with a broad chest and shoulders and a thin"ish" waist (by comparison). I'd love to see someone make a true "athletic" fit to cater to the former linebackers and baseball catchers among us.

"I'd rather damage the sport in order to defend an absurd level of inaccessible elitism that was originally designed to disenfranchise and disallow poors and blacks from the game rather than make a completely inconsequential change that does not affect me at all but might make people more willing to give a shot to a sport that historically had too stuffy and rich of a reputation to attract the middle/lower class"

Sometimes you have to test the edges to be able to shift the median. Not loving this look, and finding new ways to put neon colors on golf clothes has to stop. But at least Adidas is pushing boundaries.

Looks like a Henley style shirt. Good for regulating body temperature when performing farm chores.

I love it. Predicting a pretty radical shift in golf fashion in the coming years. The game needs to be accessible for younger people, and collabs with brands outside of the golf sphere is one of the best ways to do it. We've seen a collab with Koepka and Off-White (arguably one of the biggest streetwear brands in the world), Jordan has released a huge range of shoes, now the Palace/Adidas collab and I heard on an EAL podcast that Buscemi is working on a range of shoes also. There's going to be a new era of pro's and media who grew up admiring and wearing these brands, and to think that they won't experiment and push the boundaries of tradition and what is acceptable on the course, is probably a little bit naive. Dress codes change over time, there is no reason why our game is any different in that regard.

Rahm doesn't really emit an aurora that he seems to care about what he is wearing , unlike the Justin Thomas's, Billy Horschel's of the world. Nothing wrong with either group - just different vibes.

[1puttTUT]

That's all fine by me, but it doesn't mean Rahm's shirt isn't ugly AF!

[soap1984]

That's true but his sponsors don't want him looking awful. I'm sure rahm doesn't want to look bad but he's got a giant trunk and legs and not much shape to his body so from a fashion standpoint it is hard to find something that looks good on him.

[jacksonchristie]

I 100% get it, I wouldn't wear this shirt either. Companies are going to get it wrong from time to time and not everything will suit everybody's particular style. Just stating that I love Palace's willingness to enter a new market and that streetwear and golf are coming together like never before. It excites the hell out of me as someone who loves both.

who is this quote from??

Don't got a problem with the shirt itself really. Looks tidy, better than some of the trash people wear. Golf's always been a showcase for fashion experiments, this one passes without offense.
