What to Consider When Planning Outfits for the Scottish Open 2025Before you start putting outfits together for the Scottish Open 2025, there are a few factors to take into consideration for a comfortable day on the course. Location and atmosphereSince 2019, the Renaissance Club in North Berwick has been home to the Genesis Scottish Open. This prestigious golf club was established in 2008 and is known for its exclusive memberships and luxury amenities. This upscale setting calls for a polished outfit that reflects the club's elegance while still keeping you comfortable. Time of yearThe tournament is set to take place from 9–13 July 2025. North Berwick’s weather during this time of year is typically mild, though it can be a bit unpredictable. Daytime temperatures average around 18°C, but early mornings and evenings often feel much cooler. It’s a good idea to dress in layers and come prepared for the occasional shower. Length of your visitNext, consider how long you’ll be spending in North Berwick. Some spectators enjoy the full four days of the Scottish Open, while others just attend for the final round. You might even extend your trip to a full week or longer, especially if you’re planning to play a few rounds of golf. Your trip duration will help you determine how many outfits you’ll need to pack. |
Men's Outfit Ideas for the Scottish Open 2025
For men, dressing for the Scottish Open mirrors the attire you’d choose for a round of golf. Think breathable polo shirts, golf trousers, and cosy sweaters, depending on the weather. Let's take a closer look at some of the elements that make up the perfect look.
Shirts
Your shirt is probably the most important component of your outfit, as it acts as your base layer. You want to choose something breathable, preferably made from a moisture-wicking fabric, such as cotton. This type of material will keep you cool during daytime rounds, while still protecting you from cool breezes in the evening.
A timeless polo shirt is a safe bet, though a smart button-down works too. Just steer clear of casual t-shirts to maintain the event’s polished vibe.
Our recommendation: Show off your love for Scotland while staying comfy in the Saltire Performance Golf Shirt.
Trousers
It's unlikely that the weather will be warm enough for shorts during your time at the Scottish Open, so stick to lightweight, tailored trousers. Neutral colours usually work best, but you could add a bit of flair to your look by going for a classic pattern like tartan.
Whatever you do, don't wear jeans.
Our recommendation: Our g.ROSS Lightweight Performance Golf Trousers offer a relaxed fit and all-day comfort.
Outerwear
Scotland in summer can still be cold and rainy, so protect yourself against the elements by packing a cosy sweater and a water-repellent jacket. Even if it looks like it's going to be a sunny day, you won't regret taking a piece of outerwear along with you.
There's nothing worse than shivering while you're trying to enjoy a world-class display of golfing excellence.
Our recommendation: The g.KYLE Lightweight Showerproof Jacket is perfect for keeping you warm and dry on and off the course.
Women's Outfit Ideas for the Scottish Open 2025
Women are encouraged to wear comfortable, modest outfits that echo golf course style. While July offers some sunny days, cooler temperatures make trousers and light jackets a better choice than dresses. Here’s how to build a chic and functional outfit.
Shirts
Like men, many women wear polo shirts to the Scottish Open, but you could also wear blouses or even sleeveless tops. Just keep it classy by not wearing anything too low-cut. Also, stay far away from boob tubes, tank tops, and t-shirts.
Keep it simple with something soft and breathable to ensure your comfort throughout the day.
Our recommendation: The g.STELLA Mesh Panel Golf Shirt is designed for optimal breathability. While it comes in a range of different colours, we recommend the blue and white colourway for a classic, sleek look.
Trousers
Since you may experience chilly temperatures and even rain during your time at the Scottish Open, it may be best to forego shorts, skirts, skorts, and dresses. Instead, pack comfortable golf trousers with enough stretch to give you a full range of movement as you stroll, sit, and stand throughout the day.
Our recommendation: If you're looking for flattering trousers with a slim leg, the g.KALEY Lightweight Performance Golf Trousers are perfect for you. You'll love the 4-way stretch and the fashionable colours and prints on offer.
Outerwear
When it comes to outerwear, you have plenty of great options available, including wool sweaters, water-resistant jackets, and golf gilets. A jacket with a hood can help protect your hair from the rain, just make sure it's breathable enough to prevent you from getting too warm.
Our recommendation: Stay cosy and dry with the g.TILLIE Showerproof Lightweight Golf Jacket thanks to its water-repellent finish.
Don't Forget About the Accessories
Not only do accessories put the finishing touches on your outfit, but they can also help protect you from the elements and ensure all-day comfort.
Footwear
It can be challenging to find the right footwear for the Scottish Open. While the weather is usually warm and dry in July, unexpected rain showers can leave the course waterlogged, and the last thing you want is soggy feet! So, consider shoes that are breathable, water-resistant, and comfortable.
Your best bet would be to go for a pair of comfy trainers or golf shoes, so long as they don't have spikes. Make sure you wear a pair of high-quality socks to prevent blisters or aching feet at the end of the day.
Headwear
Since you'll be in Scotland during the peak of summer, it's a good idea to wear a hat to shade your face from the sun. Some options include the g.COWAN Golf Cap or the g.DUNDAS Tweed Golf Cap. You may also want to wear other forms of sun protection, including sunglasses and SPF.
To protect yourself against the chilly morning air, pack a classic Saltire Beanie for extra warmth.
Bags
While you are allowed to carry a small handbag or rucksack, spectators aren't permitted to bring oversized bags. Think carefully about what you need to take with you, and remember that your bag will be searched when you arrive. Pack only essentials like your tickets, wallet, and sunscreen to stay light and mobile.
