Why is it traditional for golf clothes to be so “ugly” (for lack of a better term)?
Some folk’ say that golfers generally wear loud &/or odd patterned clothes… Just a matter of opinion, I suppose.
I know that golf’s origins are from Scotland so, are the patterns & colors clan-colors? That’s my guess but, I’m not certain.
Just to avoid confusion regarding my actual question, (please see the Title Question)-> “Whу іѕ іt traditional fοr golf clothes tο bе ѕο ‘hіdеουѕ′?”
