Golf Shorts

Golf shorts should reach just above the knee, typically 9-11 inches inseam. Most clubs require this length for dress code. Avoid cargo styles or very short cuts. Should look smart with golf polo shirts.

Golf shorts include moisture-wicking fabrics, secure pocket designs for scorecards and tees, and stretch panels for bending. Usually more tailored than casual shorts. UV protection and quick-dry properties for summer rounds.

Most amateur competitions allow proper golf shorts. Some traditional clubs and tournaments may require trousers. Check specific event dress codes. Professional men's tours typically require golf trousers.

Look for lightweight, breathable fabrics with UPF protection. Moisture-wicking material essential for sweat management. Consider shorts with mesh pocket bags for extra ventilation. Light colours reflect heat better.

Shorts should fit at the natural waist, not low-rise. Allow full range of motion for golf stance. Not too tight across seat or thighs. Pockets should keep contents secure during swing.
