Adidas Climacool Men's Golf Pants

If you couldn't tell already, I'm a huge fan of golf clothes, and am always on the lookout for a great pair of mens golf pants. So, when I recently stumbled upon the new Adidas Men's Climacool Flat Front pants I just had to have a pair. Not only do they look great and feel great, but they are designed to keep you cool, so if you ever feel like wearing pants on the course during the summer you don't have to worry about sweating it up.


These Adidas ClimaCool Mens golf pants have a bunch of great built in features:
- they are 100% polyester and provide UV protection;
- the fabric stretches for freedom of movement;
- they are super comfortable;
- they make you look great; and
- they come in a bunch of different colors.

As more of a stand out type of golfer, I am always on the lookout for colorful mens golf pants. The great thing about these pants is that they come in a variety of colors. In fact, last week I saw Sergio Garcia wearing a bright blue pair, and I'd assume all of the other colors he wears are also part of the Adidas ClimaCool pant line. The only problem, however, is that I haven't been able to find the really cool colors in the store - yet. Most offer black, white, stone, navy, and khaki, but I'm waiting for blue, red, yellow, orange, or pink men's Adidas golf pants to come out in stores so I can snatch them up.

And from a performance perspective these pants are great. They actually feel a little bit like rain pants - no cotton feel to them at all. This means they don't ride up when you are walking, they don't absorb sweat like cotton, and they look a lot more polished than cotton (no fading!). If you are in the market for some new mens golf pants, give these a try, you won't be disappointed!

Men's Golf Pants

I don't know about you, but I am a huge golfer. I love to play golf and would play every day if I had the money and had the time. But I don't, neither the money nor the time. So, I have to live with playing golf between once and twice a week when the weather is nice. When I do play golf, however, I like to have a good golf fashion sense. This means wearing great men's golf pants. The only problem I am having, though, is finding the kind of mens golf pants that I really like and can trust while I'm out on the golf course. nike dri-fit golf pants To tell you a little about myself, I'm 28 years old, have been playing golf for about 10 years, and right now carry about a 7 golf handicap. I am pretty fit (I weigh about 175 pounds, have a 32 inch waist, with 32-34 inch length, depending on the type of golf pants I wear). I like the traditional mens golf pants, but also like to switch it up and wear bright men's golf pants in pink, yellow, orange, or any other color that is, to say the least, fashion forward. My brother-in-law is two years older than me and we both enjoy looking great on the golf course. A problem I'm having with maintaining my golf style is finding the kind of mens golf pants that look really cool on the golf course. I have googled "men's golf pants," "pink mens golf pants," "cool mens golf pants," and almost every other variation on the theme, but I have yet to find a great website or store that has all of those golf clothes that I am looking for. I've been to TGW.com, Golfsmith, J. Lundeberg, and even Eastbay and I just can't find anything I like (or that is under $100). But I know I am not the only one out there. And the influx of professional golfers wearing great looking golf clothes has me thinking there has to be something out there.

Puma golf pants
I've thought about trying to make my own mens golf pants, or my own little golf clothing line. The only thing is, I don't know anything about making golf clothes, let alone designing them. I've got some great ideas for some great men's golf pants, but I don't know where to get the fabric, who to get to put them together, or anything else involved that I don't even know. Maybe in the future I'll look into it a little more, but right now I hate that I can't find any cool golf pants anywhere. I just want to have some golf pants like Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Ian Poulter, or even Camillo Villegas. Maybe some day I'll be able to find them.

bright golf pants
I recently bought some Men's Adidas Climacool White Golf Pants and will give you a review of them sometime soon. They are made out of a polyester type of fabric, making them very lightweight but also look very cool too. The other thing I think makes golf pants look very cool, which isn't provided for on every pair of golf pants, is what I call the European golf pant cut. I've put in a picture of it below, but the European mens golf pant cut puts a little slit in each side of the golf pant so that it fits better around your shoes and doesn't clump up and look messy around your shoes. Maybe this is a bad thing to think, but I want to look as good as possible on the golf course, whether I'm out there on business or for fun, and my golf pants can help me look better.


Don't forget to find some golf pants that fit your eye, fit your body, are a bright color, and look good. And remember, they don't have to be Adidas golf pants, or Nike golf pants, or Puma golf pants, or Loudmouth golf pants, or Ashworth golf pants, or Cutter & Buck golf pants. The name doesn't matter. What matters is that they fit you and they give you confidence on the golf course.

College Sports Golf Headcover | Kansas Jayhawks

I am a huge Kansas Jayhawks fan. Huge. For the last 6 years or so I had a sweet jayhawk golf head cover that looked exactly like the one you see here. It was perfect for not only starting conversations at the course, but for showing off my true Kansas Jayhawks spirit. It was firmly attached to my three wood, and it was aging perfectly (you know how some things just get better with age, like a pair of jeans or a t-shirt? So was the same with this Kansas Jayhawk golf head cover).


One day I was out at the course, I took the Jayhawk off my three wood, and never saw it again. When I went looking for another one (which I did immediately since I need to express myself through my golf clothes and golf equipment) all I found was this new age version. And I think it looks okay, but it just isn't the same as the old one. It just doesn't have the character, you know? It doesn't look at me like the old one did. But, have no fear, because the other day I found one in the old school style. I had to actually buy it from a Bass Pro Shop I think, instead of the usual The Golf Warehouse (which by far has the best deals on men's golf clothing, particularly men's golf pants, men's golf shirts, and golf shoes). But it's on its way home.

Don't be afraid to use your time on the golf course to express yourself. It isn't just about hitting golf balls straight and putting the golf ball in the cup. It is about doing those things while looking good doing it. It is doing those things and having people automatically think you know what you are doing because you are dressed nice. It is even people believing you are a nicer person because you are dressed nicely (it is sad but true that first impressions mean a lot).

Check back in as I give you some more great golf clothes and golf equipment ideas.

Welcome to Golf Clothing | Golf Equipment

Welcome to Golf Clothing | Golf Equipment, a golf clothing and golf equipment blog where I get the opportunity to let you know about the golf things I'm buying, the things I like, the things I don't like, the things I want, and the things I think are really not cool. I've created this blog for a couple reasons: first, because I think some of the things I put on here you might like and might not know about; and second, because I have a distinct style that I don't think is very well represented right now with a lot of golf clothing and golf accessories. If you like the things I like, I'm going to help you try to get those things.
Now a little bit about me. I'm 28 years old, a 5 handicap at my best, a 10 at my worst (depending on what season it is), and I enjoy using the golf course as an opportunity to express my style. This means I'm not afraid of wearing a pair of men's seersucker golf pants on the golf course or to consider buying a pair of pink men's golf pants (harder to find than you might think). In light of my style choices, however, my goal is not necessarily to stand out on the golf course but to truly look good, to be stylish (think many of the European golfers on the PGA - not so much Ian Poulter maybe as Luke Donald or Adam Scott). This means great colors, great products, and, most importantly, great fit.
So, thanks in advance for reading, and hope you'll be able to find some golf clothes and golf equipment here that meet your golf course needs.
