Golf Clothes For Women – The Difficult Process Of Selection

Women don't have it easy when it comes to finding the right outfit to hit the links wearing. Golf apparel for women are improving, but it is still sometimes hard to find clothing that fits right and is acceptable to wear to your local club. So, how do you find the best outfit for golfing? Below, you will find a few tips to help you choose the clothes that you wear to your next golf outing.

Modesty

Most, if not all clubs have some kind of dress code in place. Before you go and purchase things that you think are cute and comfortable, contact the club to learn about the actual dress code and how strictly it is enforced. Some clubs haven't updated their dress codes in many years and still have written in their policies that shorts and skirts must be knee-length, but in reality, they just don't want you showing up with shorts that let your cheeks hang out when you bend over.

Generally, if you can find shorts with a 5" inseam or skirts that extend beyond your fingertips when you stand straight with your hands at your sides, you should be safe. Again, check in advance to avoid the aggravation and possible embarrassment when you show up in an outfit that looks great but doesn't meet the standards of the club.

As for tops, avoid those spaghetti strap tank tops. Instead choose polo shirts or high-collared sleeveless shirts that will keep you covered each time you bend over to tee your ball.

Breath-ability

The clothes that you wear must be made of a breathable material. Although the workout you will get on the course isn't as strenuous as what you get at the gym, you will become overheated while walking the course or standing in the sun.

If you tend to sweat a lot, look for moisture-wicking shirts. These will help keep you cool and dry all day.

Shoes

Who doesn't love a great pair of shoes? Golf shoes for women have come a long way over the years. Today, you can find all kinds of styles, colors and patterns to choose from. Don't forget the fit! The shoes you find may be perfect for completing your outfit, but will you be able to stand keeping them on your feet during a round? Try them on and wear them for a while before heading to the club for the day.

Tip: If you're breaking in new shoes during a day at the club, take an extra pair of shoes with you. Shoes that feel great for the first few holes may not feel so good once you reach the tenth.

Take your time to find just the right golf clothes for your game. What you wear can have a significant impact on your game and how much you enjoy your time at the club.
