Joggers?

[Sneakbox]

I'm not a fan of joggers, but more power to you if you like it, wear what you want...

Every pair of "joggers" I've ever seen makes it look as though the person wearing them is wearing a diaper under them. No thanks.

That's not right. Those people are wearing the joggers wrong. The waist band is supposed to sit under the butt, below the diaper.

Nice!

Being able to dress, and wearing what you want is one thing. Unfortunately, joggers (when not being used for jogging, or other aerobic activity) are considered to be for people that don't know how to dress. So when you are wearing joggers, you really are letting your pants down about not having style.

 

-> So why do Puma et al., dress their players in joggers? Well there seams to be enough people unable to dress themselves properly, that a market niche has opened. It's not a niche that I would want to fall into!

Actually, wearing chinos and saddle shoes is considered the attire of people who don't know how to dress. So when you're wearing khaki golf pants and anything made by Footjoy, you're really letting your pants down about having zero style. See? Style is subjective.

 

I like the more athletic style of golf wear (men and women) and think joggers and tapered golf pants look great. I think Justin Thomas dresses like a Dad on the course and I think someone needs to burn all of Phil Mickelson's clothing, but that's my opinion.

I often wear my Nike Running joggers to the range and for practice rounds (I mostly play in the early afternoon when it's empty so I don't care) and I noticed that both Nike and Puma have "dress joggers" now. What's the consensus on those? Would I be a ****** to wear them when playing for real or nah?

 

Search Nike Oxford Jogger if you're confused.

 

I'm personally not a huge fan of joggers. Honestly, I'm more comfortable in traditional golf clothes and wear them as casual clothes a lot. Nonetheless, if you like them then wear them with pride. The only reason not to wear them is if your private club or the random course you're at doesn't allow them or threatens to not let you on the course for wearing them. As for the stuffy naysayers, who cares what they say. I think thats the reason golf gets a bad name from some.

Not my look.... but if that's what you like....???

I personally am not a huge fan of these out on the golf course. I am a proponent of the traditions of golf, especially on tour. I would rather see the traditional classy style with a number of the tour players.

We will still be wearing the same styles next year while your joggers will be off to the Goodwill store. Phil and Justin dress like men with class.

 

I'm not a fan of DJ's skinny pants.

I personally would rock them to the range but not on the course. However, just wear what you want!

This thread is starting to warm up :taunt:

Lets think about the psychological side of the game. You've got to feel confident. If I've still got my joggers on, I'm going to feel even more like a right wanker if my tee shot lands in the pond than if I was properly dressed for business. Thus, not looking like I just got out of bed helps me play better.

Cheers,

David

I personally think you should wear what you are comfortable in. I primarily wear shorts when I play but if it's cooler or windy I wear the puma joggers and find them incredibly comfortable. I also rock the Puma Ignite Hi Tops too and even will play a red volvik vivid ball and that really gets the group going. Why would I want to dress a certain way on the golf course that doesn't coincide with how I dress off it? I also love giving the middle finger to the golf snobs that hate that style. The point is that golf is hard enough as is, why make it more difficult or uncomfortable wearing something you aren't comfortable in.

Phil dresses like a man who lost 50lbs, didn't buy new clothes, and then reached into the closet and grabbed the first thing his hands touched.

 

Fitted clothing is not evil.

I'm not into joggers on the course, but I have to agree with the khaki/saddle shoes comments. I can't believe JT wears that boring crap at his young age. I could be totally off, but it seems more common in certain parts of the South.

Yea C'mon!

[mission_scratch]

It all comes down to what you like and your own style. Personally I am not a fan of joggers but I have 0 issues with someone wearing what they like.

[BYK]

Meh. Pass

[dont rory be happy]

I think it takes a certain build & style to wear joggers on the course. I have a few pair & have never had anyone say anything to me about them. But, I've seen some people on the course try to sport them that shouldn't be - but wear what makes you comfortable.

[leejohnkieh]

flex joggers hands down.

Get the all black.

 

I got lucky and found a pair at the Nike Centralia Outlet (not factory store) for $30.

[LeoLeo99]

Was recently at my local Marshall's and picked up a pair of sweatpants. Didn't really look at them much. Fabric looked nice I threw them in the cart. When I got home and wore them...They're joggers. LOL. They are very comfortable but just don't look like golf wear for a 50 year old man. At least not me.

[hahanice]

quick story,

 

im all for joggers and slim fitting clothing, just as i like to wear slim fit clothing in real life. started getting really trendy when a female intern asked me why all of my suits looked like they were my dads because they didn't fit me (i was like 23 at the time... they literally were my dads). so now i try to stay as up to date as possible, and generally take pride in my appearance (less so now that i'm old and married).

 

i really like trying to incorporate an athletic look into my golf game. I have a pair of joggers in black that i wore through the colder months. with some 90 IT's i thought they looked great. even got some compliments at my club, though im sure some people were looking at me like i was crazy.

 

anywho, i just got some white pants for an alumni tournament I am playing in. well i wasnt sure if i was sold on the white pants idea so i wore an old pair earlier this week to practice at the club. really liked the white pants/ color scheme so i was pretty happy... until i went down to the locker room and saw myself in the mirror. they were like, older, non fitted pants. i looked like i was wearing sleeping bags on each leg. they were by no means baggy, but i just didnt feel right.

 

i ended up playing in a group, and played pretty well so i was happy. but all round i kept thinking to myself "man i look like a tool."

 

 

sorry for my rambling, and punctuation. slow work day :)

me! "some folks think they can pull off wearing shorts in Cleveland"

[kasparaitis]

I say rock em' if you can. I wear board shorts to the range, and my "slightly" dressier Ripcurl boardwalk board shorts when playing. If it's cold out, I'm still wearing them, just with a jacket.

[Geaux Gators]

If its cold out... lol dude you live in OC.... cold out means 75 for you.

 

 

:lol:

[1puttTUT]

If it's cold out I don't play...but cold for me means < 50º

Exactly... lol, I like to play first tee time if possible, so it can get into the 50's (coastal weather can get a bit chilly. lol) it's still OC though, so it's warm compared to other places.
