Fashion Dimes
Webb Simpson (FootJoy)
I’ve been critical of Webb in the past, however, he has stepped up his game lately. The sweater and shoes steal the show but it’s his tailored pants that elevate the look.
Rory McIlroy (Nike)
We’ve been harsh on the Nike athletes (and deservedly so) but let’s give credit where credit is due. This arctic blue pullover/polo combination paired with the sail/wolf grey-colored trousers is the best look I saw from Nike at Winged Foot.
Zach Johnson (Kjus & FootJoy)
Another cool shade of blue that caught my eye; Zach Johnson matched his technical vest with his long sleeve polo for a Dime-worthy look.
Alex Noren (Nike)
Others tried but failed to pull off this fruity pebbles inspired woven belt (looking at you Jason Day). Alex Noren made it work by letting the belt be the centerpiece of his kit. The navy trousers and a white top were the answers to this belt riddle.
Justin Thomas & Billy Horschel (Ralph Lauren & FootJoy)
Justin Thomas and Billy Horschel show off the difference between Polo Golf and RLX. JT looks clean, classic, and all-American in the blue and white from Polo Golf. Billy-Ho gives us a sportier, preppy look from RLX. What’s your preference?

Louis Oosthuizen
With so many stylish technical vests available, Louis opted for this cotton v-neck sweater vest that made him look like he should be teaching high school chemistry.
Definitely prefer RLX. Obviously Polo is nice, but I just prefer the sportier look that RLX provides.
Thanks for the great reporting from a strange week. Can’t wait for the autumnal looks at Augusta.
Thanks, Jason. You can count on us to be back for The Masters! I am equally excited.
Did you notice DJ covered up his vertical stripes shirt on the days he wore it?
