It comes preloaded with over 32,000 courses around the world, and also features a dedicated button for showcasing the layout and shape of the Green. The coolest feature has to be the ability to keep a digital scorecard using your watch, download the data to a computer and analyze each shot. It even has a built-in odometer so they can see how far they walked during a round! No subscripti­on required, this baby is ready to roll right out of the box.

These pants can take you from work, to the golf course, to drinks without ever needing to change.
