This is what's included in the 30% sale
A Matter of Inches is a limited-time collection where a selection of Local Rules garments are sold at 30% off. It's not about leftover stock of a single model, but about four of the brand's core garments in several colours and seasonal versions at the same time.
Specifically, here you'll find:
- Lightweight Tech Pants in Navy, Beige, Dusty Olive and Light Grey, all in the '25 version
- Tech Shorts in Navy, Beige, Dusty Olive and Light Grey, in both older and '25 versions
- Midlayer Q-zip and Q-zip Midlayer in Dark Green, Navy, Light Green, Light Brown, White and Forest Green, among others
- Tech Anorak in Navy and Dusty Olive
That means you can build an almost complete wardrobe for the course from here: trousers or shorts on the bottom, a half-zip as a mid layer, and an anorak on top when the weather turns. Since the discount applies to the entire garment and not just individual sizes, this is the moment to complete what you already have, rather than hunting for a single remaining leftover.
Lightweight Tech Pants or Tech Shorts on the bottom
On the bottom you choose between two garments with the same technical starting point but different lengths. Lightweight Tech Pants are the lightweight long trousers for cooler rounds and spring and autumn golf, while tech shorts take over when it gets warm enough to show your legs.
The colour options carry over between the two, so you can match the same tone regardless of length. If you want something that blends into the rest of your wardrobe, the lightweight tech pants in and light grey are the most neutral. If you're looking for more colour, the trousers come in beige and dusty olive, and the shorts in both beige and dusty olive.
One practical thing to note before you add to cart: Tech Shorts go up to size XXL in several variants, while the '25 version of the shorts starts at S. Lightweight Tech Pants follow the XS to 2XL range throughout. So if you're between two sizes, it's worth checking the specific variant you're after, since sale garments rarely stay in stock in all sizes all the way through.
Midlayer Q-zip as a mid layer
Midlayer Q-zip is the garment that lets the same outfit work through a longer day. A half-zip, that is a top with a zipper running part way down the neck, lets you regulate the warmth without having to take anything off: zip up on the chilly morning round, zip down when the sun comes out.
The colour selection in the sale is unusually broad for this garment. In addition to dark tones like navy and dark green, there are lighter options such as light green, light brown and white. You'll find the latest variants as q-zip midlayer in, light green '25 and navy '25.
A light midlayer like White or Light Brown contrasts against dark trousers and stands out in photos, while a dark green or navy stays more subdued and handles stains better over a whole season.
Tech Anorak when the weather turns
At the top of the layers sits the tech anorak, a pull-on garment for wind and light rain. Unlike trousers and shorts, which you buy according to temperature, the anorak is the one you bring regardless of the forecast: it weighs little, is quick to pull on over a midlayer and just as quick to stuff back into the bag when the drizzle passes.
In this collection it comes in navy and dusty olive. Dusty Olive ties in with the same tone found in the trousers and shorts, so if you want to pull together a subdued, earthy look it carries through all three layers.
How to build a complete set from the sale
The point of having several of Local Rules' core garments discounted at the same time is that you can buy a whole shell at once instead of picking up individual pieces. A simple setup for Swedish spring and autumn weather:
- Start with trousers or shorts according to temperature: Lightweight Tech Pants for cool, Tech Shorts for warm.
- Add a Midlayer Q-zip that you can open and close during the day.
- Complete it with a Tech Anorak in the bag for wind and rain.
If you stay within the same colour family, for example Navy throughout or the earthy tones Beige, Dusty Olive and Light Brown, the garments tie together without you having to think about it every time you pack. If you want to see how the same pieces work in everyday life too, there are more ideas in the guide golf outfit ideas for men, and if you need tips on which garments actually handle our climate, which golf clothes are best for the Swedish climate is a good starting point.
Check size and variant before the sale ends
Discounted collections differ from the regular range in one respect: stock is normally not replenished. When a size in a particular colour sells out, it's usually gone for this round.
That's why it's worth double-checking two things before you decide. One is the size range, which varies between variants: most garments go from XS to 2XL, but some Tech Shorts reach XXL and the '25 versions of the shorts only start at S. The other is which seasonal version you're buying, since the same garment comes in both an older design and the '25 version, sometimes in similar colours. If you already know which size you wear in Local Rules garments, it's quick. If you're unsure, it's easier to try your way to the right one while several sizes are still available in your colour.
