I don\u2019t know many men who can pull off such a bold pattern in a pant. I\u2019m thinking even David Beckham would look ridiculous and that is hard to do. (Note: not that you will EVER look like David Beckham, fella\u2019s\u2026.but, he is good barometer for overall awesomeness)<\/li>\n<li>If your belly hangs over the top of your pants, it\u2019s time to go up a size. No one really thinks you have a 32 inch waist anyway.<\/li>\n<li>Metallic lame? Remember the show \u201cSolid Gold\u201d? Do you think this was a leftover costume? And, speaking from experience (aka: past dance recitals), this fabric is hardly sweat-wicking. Can\u2019t be comfortable.<\/li>\n<li>The monochromatic look. This poor guy looks like he belongs in Cell Block H. While I do always enjoy a nod to a designer (in this case, Puma), this is a little bit over the top. Plus\u2026.that hair is awful. Golf is a gentlemen\u2019s sport. No surfer dudes allowed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Here is a pretty darn good example of what to look like on the golf course:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.unionvilletimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Kelly21.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" alt=\"Kelly2\" src=\"http:\/\/www.unionvilletimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Kelly21.png\" width=\"197\" height=\"262\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Why hello, Adam Scott!<\/p>\n<p>Now, pay no attention to his chiseled jawline\u2026.look instead at his outfit. Trendy and preppy? Yes. Outrageous and immature? No.<\/p>\n<p>True, he is wearing Burberry, but that shouldn\u2019t matter so much (alright, it\u2019s EVERTHING\u2026.I\u2019m not gonna lie)<\/p>\n<p>There.<\/p>\n<p>No excuses to look anything but handsome on the golf course this summer!<\/p>\n<p>Happy Father\u2019s Day!
