Are you excited to watch your favourite golf player play at the US Open? We can't blame you! But before you head off to watch this annual tournament, you'll need to plan your outfits in advance. This is especially important if you're travelling to North Carolina from out of state.
So, if you're wondering what to wear to the US Open Championship and you need a little inspiration, have no fear. That's where we come in! We've got outfit recommendations and some tips and tricks up our sleeves to help you look and feel your best.
What Should You Consider Before Picking An Outfit For the US Open?When you're picking an outfit for the US Open over the 10th to 16th of June 2024, the most important thing to consider is the weather, especially if it's your first time attending. You'll want to remember that this championship will be taking place in the city of Pinehurst, North Carolina. Based on the location, this means you can expect warmer weather with a touch of humidity. Pinehurst in June is absolutely beautiful, as the early summer weather starts to heat up. In fact, it averages around 86°F (30°C) during the day, which means you can enjoy the warmth of the North Carolina sun (when it's not overcast, that is!). In the mornings and evenings, it can be a little cooler, with the temperature hanging at around 66°F (around 19°C). So, when you're packing your bags for the US Open Championship, you're going to want to pack lighter, with more layerable clothing. Layering is essential since you don't want to be out on the greens for a morning or night session and catch a chill. However, you also don't want to feel hot and stuffy when you're watching an afternoon game. Of course, no matter what, you'll always want to check the forecast for the day before you head out the door. You should also consider how the weather is going to translate into your fashion choices... Since it's going to be warm, you're going to want to opt for light, breathable fabrics. But don't forget to add a light jacket or a pair of lightweight trousers to your suitcase. But we'll get more into what you should be wearing to the US Open below. |
What Should Men Wear To The US Open?
Men should typically wear something sleek and semi-casual to the US Open.
Just because the weather is going to be heating up in June doesn't mean that you can't strike a balance between comfortable and stylish. So, gents, let's break down what you should wear to stay cool and prepared for the US Open annual tournament.
Shirts
Want to make sure you're staying cool while you're watching your favourite player on the course? Then you're going to need breathable or moisture-wicking fabrics. Oh, and short sleeves, of course!
A short-sleeve button-down or polo shirt can be a great choice here. For a sleek, tailored look, we'd suggest the g.SILLOTH Tailored Collar Shirt in navy or ascot blue. And, if you really want to wow everyone else attending the event, then you can always add a few patriotic country colours to your wardrobe.
Our other top choices: g.KINLOCH Cotton Polo Shirt, g.KEITH Mercerised Cotton Shirt
Trousers
Now, let's move on to trousers. There's nothing worse than having a thick, heavy pair of trousers on when the sun is baking down. Instead, you'll want to pick a sensible pair of tailored lightweight or linen pants. That way, you can cheer on whoever is playing without a care in the world!
Remember, you still want to look chic, so pay attention to the cut of your trousers. A slim cut can make you look well-dressed. For instance, the g.ROSS Lightweight Trousers in navy are the perfect balance between comfy and put-together.
Our other top choice: g.JACKSON Lightweight Shorts

Outerwear
Okay gentlemen, let's complete your ensemble.
Although you don't technically need a jacket, since the championship is set to begin in early summer, you don't want to be shivering when the weather starts to cool down. Rather, opt to take a lightweight sweater, like the g.ETON Suede Placket Sweater in Bordeaux! As the saying goes, it's always better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it...
Our other top choices: g.THORNTON V Neck Slipover, g.EDEN V Neck Sweater
What Should Women Wear To The US Open?
Ladies, when you're attending the US Open, you are going to want to wear something cool and eye-catching. That's right, you're going to want to stay on top of your style game! Just because you're not the one on the course in front of adoring fans, it doesn't mean that you can drop the (golf) ball when it comes to looking sharp.
Shirts
Although you may be tempted to pull out your favourite blouse, it's important to remember that as a spectator, it can get pretty stuffy when the sun's out. For that reason, a comfortable sleeveless or short-sleeved top is a great choice.
So, whether you're rocking the g.SOPHIE Polo Shirt in Garnet or the g.SARA Midsleeve Shirt in Navy, you're going to look incredible.
Our other top choices: g.JENNA Sleeveless Polo Shirt, g.PALOMA Polo Shirt
Trousers
Ladies, you have a few more options when it comes to bottoms. At least compared to men! Ideally, you'll want to choose something light and breezy like a tailored skirt. But, if you're more comfortable in a pair of trousers, just remember to wear something well-fitted and modest! For example, the g.KALEY Lightweight Trousers are the perfect choice.
Our top skort choice: g.EMELI Lightweight Skort

Outerwear
While the daytime temperatures may be warm, it's important to be prepared for a little bit of cooler weather. Layering is also a good idea, so be sure to bring a lightweight pullover or jacket along with you. Alternatively, a cardigan or shawl could work well. Just remember to keep your outfit looking sleek and well-thought-out!
Our top pick for attending the US Open would be a sleeveless pullover, though, like the g.ASTRID Cotton Slipover. It's just enough to keep you warm, but not so warm that you're going to overheat.
Our other top choices: g.DARCY Ladies Sweater, g.AMIRA Merino Sweater
What Are The Best Accessories For The US Open?
Now that you know exactly what you're wearing to the US Open, it's time to accessorise! Remember, a good pair of shoes and a stylish hat can make or break an outfit, so you're going to want to pick them wisely...
Shoes
Although watching the golf doesn't seem like it would be taxing on your feet, believe us when we say that it definitely can be! Especially if you're planning on doing a lot standing on the side of the course or walking around the greens.
Ideally, you're going to want to pick shoes with a good amount of support. They should also be breathable to keep your feet cool during the day games.
If you want your shoes to pair with any outfit you're taking with you, then a pair of white sneakers or sandals will look fantastic.
Headwear
Since you're going to be out in the sun, you'll need a way to shield your eyes and protect your face from sunburn. The best way to do this is to take a wide-brimmed hat with you. A plain cap in neutral colours will work well, too, like the unisex g.COWAN Golf Cap in navy or white! Ladies, you also have the option of the g.LEXI Soft Peak Visor in navy.
We'd highly recommend choosing a hat that has moisture-wicking properties to keep any sweat at bay. But if you don't have one of those on hand, then try to pick something that is made from lighter materials. Oh, and don't forget to coordinate your hat with the rest of your outfit for a more put-together look.
FAQsIs there a dress code for the US Open?No, there is no dress code for the US Open. But even though there are no hard and fast rules regarding your attire, there are certain expectations. Typically, the unspoken dress code is semi-formal, with short-sleeved shirts and nice pants for men and casual yet modest clothing for women. However, it's important to dress appropriately and know what to avoid, which includes clothing with indecent, inappropriate, or offensive imagery on it. Can I bring a bag to the US Open?Yes, you can bring a bag to the US Open. However, there are certain size limitations and restrictions on the types of bags you can bring. Small purses, bags, and backpacks are allowed, but they will need to be smaller than 6" x 6" x 6". Additionally, you can bring along a clear plastic shoulder or handbag no bigger than 12" x 12" x 6". |
