After Tom Brady’s hole-out during The Match II, things got a bit embarrassing for the QB. In the pandemonium immediately following his birdie, Brady split his trousers right on the fanny. Social media caught onto the mishap rather quickly.
Luckily Brady was a good sport about the incident even as he and partner Phil Mickelson fell to rivals Tiger Woods and Peyton Manning 1 down. And while the moment was embarrassing, it is avoidable. Check out some of our picks for the 10 best golf pants you can buy to avoid Brady’s fate.
Peter Millar Durham Performance
Available in seven neutral and earth tones, these pants are as professional as it gets: not too tight, not too loose, and offered in three inseam lengths. The result is a perfectly tailored look that doesn’t require dry cleaning or even ironing. The polyester woven twill fabric is also moisture-wicking, and two-way stretch ensures comfort.
Lululemon ABC
Inspired by the style of five-pocket jeans, Lululemon’s ABC pants are both stylish and sporty. Featuring sweat-wicking, four-way stretch Warpstreme fabric, these pants are suitable for wear both on and off the course. There’s even a hidden zippered pocket on the back that can fit a phone or passport. Available in nine colors.
Adidas Ultimate 365 Classic
These pants aim to do it all: A silicone grip tape liner on the waistband helps keep your shirt tucked in, while a blended stretch fabric construction allows a full range of motion. Did we mention they’re also moisture-wicking and offer UV protection? Available in eight colors too, including an eye-catching dark marine blue.
Nike Flex
If you like a more tailored, European-style look, with tapered legs, you’ll love the Nike Flex. Stretchy, sweat-wicking fabric provides comfort while multiple pockets offer plenty of space for tees, ball markers and your scorecard. Available in five colors.
Puma Jackpot
Available in a whopping 13 color options, the Jackpot allows you to never have to worry about having the right pants to match your polo. Like the Ultimate 365, the Jackpot incorporates a sticky liner on the mesh stretch waistband to help keep your shirt tucked in, and is composed of moisture-wicking stretchy fabric for comfort, but it also has a bit of hidden flair, with floral-inspired printed pocket bags.
Under Armour Showdown
A straight-leg fit gives the Showdown a professional look — you get the sense you could go straight from the course to a job interview. But the light, stretchy, quick-dry, moisture-wicking fabric also welcomes sporty movement, and the company dubs the comfort level “insane” on the website, so if that doesn’t intrigue you, what will? Available in five colors.
Dunning Player Fit Woven
It’s hard to appreciate Dunning’s fit until you see it in person, but the pants really are special for golfers looking for a snug, stylish fit that’s also comfortable. Four-way stretch material offers breathable moisture management, and matte black buttons and understated branding give the pants a refined, polished look. Available in eight colors.
FootJoy Traditional
If European styling is not your thing and you prefer pants with a roomier fit, FootJoy Traditional pants are for you. Easy-care fabric construction avoids both wrinkling and shrinkage, and deep side pockets offer plenty of room for your golfing accessories. A generous 18-inch straight leg opening will cover your shoes with no problem, while four-way stretch provides comfort. Available in six colors.
Greyson Montauk Jogger
These dressy joggers by fashion-forward golf brand Greyson Clothiers are sure to turn heads. The satin-finished, eight-way stretch performance fabric is imported from Italy while the brand’s exclusive sport waistband provides comfort and flexibility. Available in six flattering, earthy colors.
Bonobos Highland Tour
With the Bonobos Highland Tour golf pants, you can customize your pants by selecting from four options (tailored, slim, athletic or straight), nine colors, 11 waist sizes and five lengths to give you an ideal, customized fit. The performance stretch fabric includes a durable water-repellent finish. For additional comfort, the pants feature M-flex side panels and embroidered eyelets at the inseam for added breathability.
