There's certain etiquette when playing golf that says you shouldn't distract other players during their swing or while they're putting. Even when there's money on the line and you're losing. I'm pretty sure that only applies to making noises or wild physical motions. The clothes you're wearing? Fair game.

Throw on a pair of these pants by Loudmouth Golf and you'll be distracting other golfers on every fairway within sight. The ranger and the cart girls too. Think your buddy can focus on sinking a 15 footer while you stand behind the hole wearing pants covered in retina-searing polka dots? Not a chance.

Loudmouth bases their designs on the ultimate loud period in fashion: the 70's. But with an updated look, and in a 97% cotton/3% stretch poly blend that's way more comfortable than the polyester of thirty years ago. Designs range from oversized houndstooth (there's a black/yellow version that could take an eye out), to madras plaids, to bold stripes, to sherbet-colored argyles. They also have a new collegiate line of argyles, so you can show school pride. At full volume.

The pants come in two cuts: American Fit, for those of us raised on fast food, and a slimmer European Fit with a flared leg. (I'm not sure if I should be insulted or not.) They also offer most designs as shorts, for loud summer play.

And to complete the ensemble, they have the perfect accessory to top off a pair of brightly-colored pants. A white belt. (Other colored belts are available as well. In hues that would make the Easter Bunny smile.)

It's time once again for golfers everywhere to embrace our love of obnoxious pants. And wear them loudly. I mean proudly.
