The excitement is building for the U.S. Open 2025, and quite rightly so! But, before you head off to Pennsylvania, it's worth giving a bit of thought to what you'll be wearing.
In this article, we'll provide you with some clothing tips and advice to help you plan the perfect outfits for this highly anticipated golfing event.
What to Consider Before Choosing Your Outfit for the U.S. Open 2025Before we get into clothing recommendations, let's look at some of the factors to consider when planning your outfits for the U.S Open Championship. The locationThe 2025 U.S. Open will be held at the esteemed Oakmont Country Club in Pennsylvania, a venue with a rich history of hosting this championship. To honour this tradition, it's best to aim for smart, golf-appropriate attire. Think along the lines of what you might wear for a round yourself, avoiding anything too relaxed or revealing. The time of yearThis year, the tournament falls between the 12th and 15th of June, which is typically a warm period in Pennsylvania. You can likely expect daytime temperatures of up to 28°C and around nine hours of sunshine a day. However, it's always wise to be prepared for the possibility of a summer shower, as they're not uncommon. How long you're going forIf you're travelling from outside of Pennsylvania, you will need to decide how many outfits you're going to pack. The number of shirts and trousers you'll need will depend on whether you're just going for a day or you plan to watch the entire event. Either way, remember to always pack a few spares, just in case. |
What Should Men Wear to the U.S. Open Championship 2025?
For men, a good rule of thumb is to dress as you would if you were playing a round of golf yourself, aiming for that sweet spot between comfort and looking smart. The good news is, there's a wide range of choices to suit everyone's taste.
Shirts
Given the warm weather in Pennsylvania this time of year, it's a good idea to choose shirts made from moisture-wicking fabrics, keeping you nice and cool throughout the day by drawing away any perspiration.
Short sleeves are a sensible choice, and it's best to avoid anything too snug. While a traditional polo shirt is always a safe bet, a button-down shirt or any other collared style would also be perfectly suitable.
Our recommendations:
-
The g.SALTIRE Performance Pique Golf Shirt, made from lightweight pique fabric that easily wicks away moisture.
- The g.SILLOTH Tailored Collar Performance Golf Shirt, a super versatile choice that comes in a range of colours.
Trousers
Seeing as you'll be in Pennsylvania as summer gets going, it's best to leave those thick winter trousers at home. While packing one warmer pair might still be a good plan, focus on lightweight options like golf or linen trousers, along with a few pairs of comfortable golf shorts.
When it comes to colour, it's best to stick with classic neutrals such as black, grey, navy, and brown.
Our recommendations:
-
The g.ROSS Lightweight Performance Golf Trousers for the cooler days.
-
The g.JACKSON Stretch Performance Golf Shorts for when the sun is out in full force.
Outerwear
While you may not need a jacket every day, you still want to be prepared for those breezy days and unexpected showers.
Our advice would be to pack a lightweight sweater or midlayer and a decent rain jacket, just to be on the safe side for whatever the Pennsylvanian weather decides to do.
Our recommendations:
-
The g.WICK Lightweight Performance Golf Midlayer is perfect for when there's a slight nip in the air.
-
If there's a chance of rain, be sure to take the g.KYLE Showerproof Golf Jacket along with you to keep you dry.
What Should Women Wear to the U.S. Open Championship 2025?
When it comes to outfit options, women generally have a few more options than men. This is your chance to look chic and fashionable as you watch one of the greatest golf championships in style.
Shirts
Keeping the warmer weather in mind, packing a selection of both sleeveless and short-sleeved shirts would be a sensible approach. Breathable fabrics are also ideal to help you stay cool and comfortable.
A classic polo shirt is always a winner, but you could also consider a smart button-down blouse or any other modest style of top.
However, it's best to avoid more revealing styles such as boob tubes, tank tops, and strappy tops.
Our recommendations:
-
The g.AMELIA Quarter Zip Patterned Golf Shirt comes in a variety of trendy patterns, with the animal print being our favourite.
-
For those warmer days, go for the g.JENNA Sleeveless Performance Pique Golf Polo Shirt, which features a stylish classic cut with enhanced breathability to keep you feeling fresh.
Trousers
Whether you prefer the comfort of tailored golf trousers or you want to show off your feminine side with a golf skort, women are spoilt for choice when it comes to bottoms. Our advice would be to take a few different options to mix and match with your selection of tops.
Keep in mind that shorts and skirts are great for the warmer weather, but you want to ensure that the length is still modest and doesn't sit too high above the knee.
Our recommendations:
-
The g.PHOEBE Lightweight Pedal Pushers are the perfect length for early summer in Pennsylvania.
-
For a stylish skort, you can't go wrong with the g.EMELI Lightweight Performance Golf Skort.
Outerwear
Even if the forecast promises glorious sunshine, it's a wise move not to head to Oakmont Country Club without a lightweight sweater or trusty rain jacket tucked away.
You never know when the weather might turn, and you want to ensure that you're comfortable when watching the game in progress.
Our recommendation:
-
Keep cosy while looking stylish with the g.AMIRA Merino Lightweight Golf Sweater, made from extra-fine merino wool.
-
Consider the g.TILLIE Showerproof Golf Jacket, made from water-repellent fabric, to help you stay dry during unexpected rainfall.
Don't Forget About the Accessories
Accessories play an essential role in bringing an outfit together and adding extra practicality to your look. So, let's have a look at some of the shoes, headwear, and bags you should be wearing to the U.S. Open.
Shoes
Watching the U.S. Open involves a significant amount of walking, usually on grassy embankments and dirt paths. Make sure you're prepared to traverse uneven surfaces by wearing a pair of golf shoes or sneakers.
While some people wear sports sandals, it's generally best to stick to comfortable, closed footwear options.
Headwear
To keep the sun's rays at bay, it's a good idea to wear sunglasses and some form of headwear, such as a cap, peak or a wide-brimmed hat—our go-to recommendation is the ultra breathable unisex g.COWAN Structured Golf Cap.
A hat with moisture-wicking qualities is particularly useful for keeping you comfortable and protected from UV rays.
Sunscreen is also advisable, though do remember that there's a limit of around 100 ml for any liquids you bring onto the course.
Bags
Bringing a bag along can certainly be handy for keeping your bits and bobs together. Just keep in mind that there are size limitations, and any bags need to be smaller than 15 x 15 x 15 cm.
In addition to a small handbag or backpack, you can also bring a clear plastic shoulder bag that should be smaller than 30 x 30 x 15 cm.
Putting Your Outfit Together
Just before you head out the door, it's worth having a quick glance in the mirror to make sure your chosen items look the part together.
Sticking to colours that complement each other is generally a good plan (perhaps within the same colour family) and it's best to avoid any jarring clashes or anything that might look a bit out of place.
Layering is also a great idea, as those Pennsylvania mornings and evenings can be a tad cooler than the midday sun, so having options for different temperatures is key.
