{"title":"Mens navy golf shorts","description":"\u003ch2 style=\"margin-top:32px; margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eWhat navy gives you that other colours do not\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eNavy is the shade that does the most work in a golf wardrobe. It reads as dark and clean under bright sun, hides grass stains and dirt far better than beige or white, and sits next to almost any polo you already own. A pale pastel polo, a white one, a bold green, even a patterned top all land cleanly against navy, which is why it is the colour most men reach for when they want one pair of shorts that covers the whole season rather than a specific outfit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eIn this collection that logic shows up in two pieces built for slightly different days. The Shibuya Shorts - Dark Navy sit at the deeper, almost ink end of navy, which pairs especially well with lighter tops, while the Tech Shorts - Navy run a touch brighter and lean more technical. If you are not locked into navy, it is worth seeing the full range of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/local-rule.com\/collections\/black-golf-shorts\"\u003eblack golf shorts\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/local-rule.com\/collections\/grey-golf-shorts\"\u003egrey golf shorts\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/local-rule.com\/collections\/golf-shorts-beige\"\u003egolf shorts beige\u003c\/a\u003e side by side before deciding, since navy's main rival for versatility is a mid grey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"margin-top:32px; margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eHow to find the right size and fit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eGolf shorts are measured on waist in inches, so the first number to get right is your actual waist, not your jeans label, which often runs vanity-sized. Measure around the narrowest part of your waist where the shorts will actually sit, keep the tape snug but not tight, and compare that figure to the size chart on each product page rather than guessing from a trouser size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eFit then comes down to how the leg sits. A relaxed or regular cut gives room through the thigh and seat so nothing pulls when you bend to read a putt or rotate through the ball, while a slimmer cut tapers closer to the leg for a sharper line. Neither is more correct; it is a question of how you like to move and look. If you prefer the roomier end, the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/local-rule.com\/collections\/relaxed-fit-golf-shorts\"\u003erelaxed fit golf shorts\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/local-rule.com\/collections\/loose-golf-shorts\"\u003eloose golf shorts\u003c\/a\u003e collections show that cut specifically, and the general guide to \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/local-rule.com\/blogs\/blog\/how-should-mens-golf-shorts-fit\"\u003ehow mens golf shorts should fit\u003c\/a\u003e walks through waist, rise and leg opening in more detail. Many modern pairs, including both styles here, use some stretch so the number on the tag matters less than it used to, but you should still order to your true waist and let the stretch handle the movement rather than the sizing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"margin-top:32px; margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eThe right length for navy shorts on the course\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eLength is where golf shorts separate from casual shorts. The widely accepted sweet spot lands the hem at or just above the top of the kneecap, which looks tidy, stays within most club dress codes, and keeps the leg from looking either baggy or too short. Measured as an inseam that usually falls somewhere around 9 to 11 inches for an average height, with taller players sizing up and shorter players sizing down so the proportion stays the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eNavy makes length a little more forgiving visually, because the dark colour reads as one clean block rather than drawing the eye to the hem the way a pale colour can. Still, if you are buying for a club with a strict code, check the hem before the hem checks you. The dedicated piece on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/local-rule.com\/blogs\/blog\/what-length-should-golf-shorts-be\"\u003ewhat length golf shorts should be\u003c\/a\u003e covers how to measure your own inseam and why the knee line is the reference point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"margin-top:32px; margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eWhat navy golf shorts should be made from\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eThe material is what makes a pair of golf shorts work for four or five hours of walking, bending and swinging. Look for a stretch woven fabric, usually a polyester or nylon blend with a small percentage of elastane, which gives the fabric enough give to move with the swing without bagging out. The key properties to want are moisture-wicking, so sweat is pulled away from the skin and dries quickly rather than sitting heavy, and breathability for warm rounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eBoth pairs in this collection are built on this kind of technical fabric rather than cotton chino cloth. Cotton looks good off the course but holds sweat, dries slowly and wrinkles, which is why it has largely been replaced by performance blends for play. If you want to understand the trade-offs before you buy, the broader explainer on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/local-rule.com\/blogs\/blog\/what-are-golf-shorts\"\u003ewhat golf shorts are\u003c\/a\u003e and the overview of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/local-rule.com\/collections\/performance-golf-shorts\"\u003eperformance golf shorts\u003c\/a\u003e go deeper on fabric construction and stretch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"margin-top:32px; margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eWashing and caring for performance fabric\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eTechnical golf shorts last longest when you treat them like sportswear, not like a cotton chino. Wash on a cool cycle, around 30 degrees, turn them inside out to protect the surface and any printed branding, and use a normal detergent. The two things that actually damage performance fabric are heat and fabric softener: high dryer temperatures can break down the stretch fibres over time, and softener coats the fabric and reduces its ability to wick moisture, which is the whole point of buying technical shorts in the first place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eSkip the softener, and hang them to dry rather than tumbling on high. Navy holds its colour well with cool washes, and avoiding hot cycles keeps the dark shade from fading toward a washed-out grey-blue. Done this way a good pair will keep its shape and its moisture handling across years of rounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"margin-top:32px; margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eWhy the back pockets may be sewn shut\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eIf your new navy shorts arrive with the back pockets stitched closed, that is deliberate and not a fault. Manufacturers tack the pockets shut so the garment keeps a clean, flat line in the shop and in transit, with no gaping or sagging at the seat. You simply snip the loose thread to open them. It is a small detail that trips up a lot of first-time buyers, and the reasoning behind it is explained in full in the note on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/local-rule.com\/blogs\/blog\/why-are-back-pockets-sewn-shut-on-golf-shorts\"\u003ewhy back pockets are sewn shut on golf shorts\u003c\/a\u003e. Front pockets are the ones you will actually use on the course for a scorecard pencil, a spare tee or a ball marker, so check those are deep enough for your habits when you try a pair on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"margin-top:32px; margin-bottom:12px;\"\u003eBuilding outfits around navy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eThe reason navy earns a permanent place in a golf bag is how little thought it demands the morning of a round. It anchors almost any top, which means you can pick the polo first and trust the shorts to follow. White and cream polos give the cleanest classic look against navy; mid and bright colours get grounded by it; and a navy-on-navy monochrome works if you want something quieter and more modern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eTo pull a full look together, pair these with something from the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/local-rule.com\/collections\/golf-polo-shirts\"\u003egolf polo shirts\u003c\/a\u003e range and finish with a cap from \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/local-rule.com\/collections\/golf-caps\"\u003egolf caps\u003c\/a\u003e.

The usual requirements are a collared shirt, shorts rather than cargo or athletic shorts, and a length at or near the knee, all of which these pieces are designed to meet. Where codes get stricter, it is almost always about length and shirt rather than colour, and navy is as safe a colour as exists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:0; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eIf you are unsure what a given club expects, or you want to understand why some older clubs historically resisted shorts at all, the explainers on the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/local-rule.com\/blogs\/blog\/golf-dress-code-style-on-and-off-the-course\"\u003egolf dress code\u003c\/a\u003e and on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/local-rule.com\/blogs\/blog\/why-cant-you-wear-shorts-in-golf\"\u003ewhy you can't wear shorts in golf\u003c\/a\u003e at certain venues are worth a read before you travel to a course you have not played.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"shibuya-shorts-dark-navy","title":"Shibuya Shorts - Dark Navy","description":"\u003cp data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\"\u003eThe Local Rule Shibuya shorts are designed with technical cotton-elastan twill fabric. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese shorts sit at a regular waist and feature a comfortable wide leg for ease of movement and a relaxed look.
