The sun’s out. The tee times are stacking up. And your golf wardrobe? It’s begging for a refresh.
Golf shorts have become the everyday go-to—not just for the course, but for everything that comes before and after it. Whether you’re warming up on the range or grabbing lunch post-round, the right pair of shorts brings comfort, style, and versatility to the table.
While tour players are still bound by traditional dress codes (trousers, always), the rest of us are free to lean into function and feel. The best golf shorts today don’t just look sharp—they perform under pressure, breathe when it’s hot, and hold their own off the course.
