Tokyo Golf Club

Regarding the new dress code

Updated: July 8, 2022

Fellowship committee

The Tokyo Golf Club’s dress code respects the club’s dignity, history, and tradition. Please be sure to read this before coming to the club.
In particular, we ask that members that accompany or that have introduced guests be responsible for informing them of theseregulations and requesting their strict conformance to them. Please be aware beforehand that, in cases of violations, violators might not
only be given a warning but might be asked to refrain from entering the premises.
Additionally, in principle, men should wear long pants throughout the year. However, men are permitted to wear knee-length shortpants during play as a means of dealing with seasonal heat.

Regarding dress for club entry and after completing play
Please wear a jacket in the clubhouse before and after playing golf, the period from July through September is, however, exempted fromthis requirement. Members and guests are also asked to refrain from entering the club wearing colorful or otherwise flamboyant attire.
Members and guests are not permitted to enter the club wearing short pants. Please use the locker room to change.

About dress during play
■ Shirts, sweaters
 Men's shirts must have a folded collar or a folded turtleneck. T-shirts, sweatshirts, high necks, and stand-up collars are not permitted.
 Please refrain from attire that has gaudy colors, camouflage patterns, or large patterns, letters, or embroidery, etc.
 When wearing short-sleeved polo shirts, long-sleeved undergarments (including those of high-tech materials) and arm covers are notpermitted. Women are permitted to wear plain white arm covers. However, such undergarments may be worn as long as they are notexternally visible, including in the area around the neck.
 When wearing short pants or a skirt, please refrain from wearing spats (compression shorts), leg warmers, etc. Women may wear
tights in the winter season.
 Always keep shirts tucked into pants.
 While it is desirable for women to also wear collared shirts, high necks and stand collars are acceptable as long as they have a sufficiently
high neck. However, shirts with a neckline less than 4 cm in height are not permitted, and shirts easily confused with t-shirts are notpermitted. Only overblouse-style shirts may be worn with the hem out as an unavoidable consequence of the style.
 When wearing a sweater, men and women are asked to wear a shirt with collar or a folded turtleneck under the sweater.
■ Slacks
 The wearing of jeans or any type of training pants is not permitted for either men or women. In addition, the wearing of cargo pants(pants with external pockets on the thigh) or anything similar to cargo pants is also not permitted.
Note: Slacks similar to cargo pants that are sold in golf shops are also not permitted on the club premises.
 In principle, men should wear high socks when wearing knee-length short pants in summer. Short pants that are excessively short are
not permitted for either men or women. Further, men are asked to refrain from wearing shin-length pants (70% length).
Note: During periods of intense heat with many hot summer days from July to the end of September, ankle socks (white only) that do
not expose the ankle, may be worn during play. Women wearing short pants and skirts must also wear ankle socks (white only) that donot expose the ankle from July to the end of September.
Additional note: Women's attire
Women's skirts should be longer than 10 cm from above the knee. Women may wear pants that are shin- or ankle-length (70%/80%length). Extremely tight pants are not allowed. In addition, arm covers for suntan prevention must be removed while in the clubhouse.
