If you’re a typical golf pro wannabe, then you’re probably looking for a few things in your game. You’re looking for some decent form (good finishing pose is especially important), you’re looking to use all the right expressions (“missed it by a groove”) and, most importantly, you want to “look” the part. Unfortunately, buying the kind of shirts that most PGA Tour players wear will set you back a few large ones. Enter Dockers Tour.
Dockers has always been about affordability, durability, and decent “form.” However, their new line – Dockers Tour – ups the ante in the good looks department. It’s a perfect line for golfers who want to look the part, but don’t want to pay the part. Dockers Tour offers shirts in the $40 - $60 dollar range. However, Dockers Tour apparel resembles the kind of stuff offered by many private club lines that retail for three times that.
Styles for 2005 include an ultra-smooth solid pique with knit collars and cuffs, an open-sleeved Jacquard knit polo with double mercerized cotton, and some “tourish” looking mock necks.
So you habitually smear ketchup and salsa on your shirt at the turn? Not a problem. Dockers Tour is also about high performance from high technology. In other words, things like Spot Lifter finish, Dry Ply, and Stain Defender won’t expose your weaknesses when your “form” is more hacker-like. www.dockerstour.com
