In general I agree with your sentiments. People should be allowed to wear what they want (be it "traditional" or "modern"), traditions change and evolve, and respect should be given regardless.

But the golf analogy fails. It's a sport and there may be very valid reason to prohibit the use of certain clubs or balls. And in fact, there are such prohibitions. Modern golf balls and clubs, for example, must meet certain specifications before they are approved. And maybe the game would be better if played with old clubs just as baseball, I believe, is better played with wood bats (as is mandated in MLB) and tennis with wooden rackets (as is not mandated, much to the detriment of the sport).
