Best golf shorts 2018. We’ve reached that time of the year when it’s finally safe to venture out on to the course in a pair of shorts.
Or maybe you are starting to get ready for that golfing holiday this summer?
Golf clubs can be quite fussy when it comes to the sort of shorts which are acceptable. Which is absolutely bonkers by the way – what sort of sport turns people away for wearing the wrong shorts?
Anyway, we don’t make the rules. But we do the research to what is available on the market, how much they cost and what performance benefits can be expected.
While you’re at it, you might want to treat yourself to a new belt and a few pairs of ankle socks.
