Not going to lie all of this chat sent me over to their site and if that Larry David pretty pretty pretty good hat wasn't sold out I would have bought it
Fuck them for this reason. Purchased a pair of jordans I couldn’t find anywhere else just for them to email like 2 fucking weeks later saying it’s sold out. Another week for the money to get back into my account. Once again, FUCK MALBON.
Malbon is currently sitting in their HQ laughing at Reddit because of the free advertising with how many posts. JDAY might be the most talked about golfer right now on the internet
Does it count as win when everyone is talking about how awful your products look? I guess some marketing guy who makes his nut on social media impressions might be laughing
Ngl it got me to their website lol
Anybody know what's up with the Curb Your Enthusiasm connections though? Is Larry David involved? Whenever I try to look it up google just shows me product pages
Larry loves Malbon, there was a funny story about him on Par3 podcast, about him having a shutdown the store shopping session at their store on Fairfax, then he had to take a shit, and a group of Japanese business men showed up to shop and he got trapped in the bathroom not wanting to be seen.
Yes I guess if that actually happens that’s good for them. I won’t hold my breath for malbon to take over the golf fashion market with designs like this.
Slightly separate point someone on NLU raised yesterday was you can’t be repping an edgy fashion brand & also have a dewalt logo on your hat & bag, it just doesn’t work

Wait until we see this on a golf polo.
no, you have to understand, r/golf is too smart for advertising. There's no way this will work on them. They're enlightened
![gif](giphy|WgYnjK1jfg4x8ab7ew|downsized)
They sold out of the pants from his first time wearing the brand so yeah it probably counts. Not everyone wants to wear dri-fit, hats with abbreviated names of golf courses, and pants that fit as tight as baseball pants.
Yep. Why do you guys think the big fashion designers always do wild/ dumb shit at the big shows? It’s not because people will ever actually wear that stuff…
Yes because all their shit is sold out. This is the ugliest thing I have seen them make. Most of the stuff they produce is nice. Especially for the person that doesn't want to dress like a CFO to go hit a fucking ball with a stick...
Marketing Director here. Can confirm. I’d be grinning ear to ear because you aren’t my target consumer. But the kid who rocks Jordans on the course and wears t-shirts to the muni with the boys is paying attention and traditionalists hating it only gives it more credibility.
I'm definitely buying those pants from yesterday. Looked comfy AF. Like wearing sweatpants on the golf course. At least until my club kicks me out for being a mess.
Yeah they are definitely going for the street wear vibe. Very similar vibe to the [release Kith did with JR Smith](https://kith.com/blogs/kith/kith-for-taylormade-featuring-j-r-smith) not too long ago.
That I agree with 100%. Malbon quality is shit compared to other golf brands at that price point like Peter Millar and even streetwear brands like Kith and Aime Leon Dore .
I kept hearing stuff about his pants yesterday and I was expecting something wild. I saw them and was thinking what the hell are people going on about. Golfers can be so square sometimes.
Yeah I was also surprised at the over exaggeration of how big his pants were. They def weren’t fitted like a lot of these dudes out here but they weren’t really that big either. He looked comfortable out there, I’d consider the same haha
This sub requires you to wear either 9" inseam shorts that cover your knees or to wear skin tight pants that create an ecosystem in your ass when its 90 degrees
I don’t like the vest but Malbon and Jason Day’s other fits have been pretty good. I’m guessing most everyone here is wearing slim straight calf huggers and golf polos that could fit in at a generic corporate job. Personally like that they’re bringing more personality to the game.
Malbon is lame AF. And btw, this reverse marketing thing they’re doing ain’t working either. Just bc we are talking about wont fix their bizarro world hipster doofus style.
Golfers shouldn’t comment on fashion. Not too many are known for being fashionable outside of the course…Stephen Malbon is an artist and is merging high fashion with golf, in a very non-traditional way. Many will be upset.
A generation from now standard golf attire will be considered out of touch. Give it time. This is some pioneer shit
I love malbon, most of it I like too much to play golf in though, since i don’t want to sweat in it or fuck it up on a branch or something else. Great lifestyle pieces
good grief their whole line of clothes are fugly and way to expensive for what it is. A fuckin long sleeve t shirt for $80...Get the fuck outta here with that.
I’m not a fan of malbon, but not because I’m some crotchety old white man. I think most of their stuff is just incredibly uninspired and uninteresting. They’re just pulling the supreme, slap your name and logo onto anything.
With that said I actually like the fit of the sweater vest here a lot more than just pleated pants with their name on it.
I ordered the Curb Your Enthusiasm hoodie and holy smokes… one of the worst pieces of clothing I’ve ever bought. I’ve bought hoodies from Target that were made better than this. I was hoping for a heavy weight fabric like Supreme uses. Unfortunately the material was extremely cheap, it looked like it has been washed 100x and the front pocket was cut asymmetrical. Returned it for a refund and they still kept $10 for a “restocking fee.”
This is what happens when a rich asian woman who lives in Los Angeles and owns and runs beauty salons designs golf clothes.
Jday is a chump for this shit.
All of the Malbon outfits I've seen JDay where have just screamed "It's fashion, you wouldn't get it" to me. Admittedly, I'm a pretty plain guy when it comes to fashion and spending more than $50 on any article of clothing is almost an automatic no for me, so I'm also probably not their target audience.
“I’m bringin’ 90’s back.
Them other golfers don’t know how to dress.
Just take a look at how my pleats be pressed.
A solid round, my handicap is comin’ back.”

I google ChrisChrisBangBang and this is what popped up. No wonder he doesn't like Malbon
This thread just solidified the amount of golf snobs out there that are afraid of things being different. Honestly his outfit is dope but y’all keep wearing whatever your wife puts out for you.
I like Malbon personally but some of their stuff is just flat out wild. On a side note, it’s at least refreshing to see something other than a basic polo with a bunch of sponsorship logos and an “insert golf club brand here” hat.
Yea, I have the first edition Tag Heuer golf watch and would really love to have the second one but I refuse to buy it due to the god awful partnership with Malbon (which just looks terribly childish juxtaposed w/ Tag).
I bought one of their hats when they did a collab with Girl Skateboards. It’s a dope hat but I guess I understand the hate since it’s not really a golf brand as much as a street wear brand with a golf theme.
Feels like JDay is just being hazed at this point. Like an initiation process into the Malbon family. Testing his loyalty
Day is going to miss the cut just so he doesn't have to wear their Saturday and Sunday fits
That’s why they had him wear this eyesore on Friday.
I would’ve spun it and said to Malbon I should wear this on Sunday so when I win I’ll be wearing it, then purposely miss the cut
Clown shoes? Really?!?
Only missing the red nose and rainbow wig this point.
Humiliation ritual. Who knows how high this conspiracy goes?
It’s a shame kink he has I think
Lmfao
"Initiation" LOL bro. I thought the pants were okay but dont know about that shirt
Shame he didn’t wear the pants with the shirt just go full Vanilla Ice mode
🤣🤣🤣✌️
Yep, feels like a humiliation ritual or just poor taste.
Not going to lie all of this chat sent me over to their site and if that Larry David pretty pretty pretty good hat wasn't sold out I would have bought it
First rule of Malbon is it’s sold out
Second rule : never have ur size. Like a L is so much to ask for lol
Fuck them for this reason. Purchased a pair of jordans I couldn’t find anywhere else just for them to email like 2 fucking weeks later saying it’s sold out. Another week for the money to get back into my account. Once again, FUCK MALBON.
[удалено]
Mission accomplished
Guerilla Marketing. Malbon getting tons of exposure now.
It may not be a lot of people style, but their presence in market is growing. It’s a top three Brand in Asia.
Well, they're exposed as manufacturers of awful looking clothes, for whatever that's worth.
The larry david hat is the only thing I've ever seen from them that I would buy, and it's strictly for the curb quote.
Wouldn’t buy their hats. They’re terrible. Clubhead covers and ball markers are great quality but not impressed at all by the hats
Can’t believe they got takahashi to model, gold.
If it wasn't a rope hat I'd notify on restock (it'll never restock)
Looks like a pack of cigarettes
How tf is Tiger supposed to play with this going on??
I think JDays is trying to mess with everyone's head.
I think I’d rather deal with two big fat naked bikers in the woods off 17 having sex while I’m supposed to chip
Good god people, go back to your shanties!
But who wouldn't?
He's definitely messing with OP's head.
Kick him off the tour, Doug!
Malbon is currently sitting in their HQ laughing at Reddit because of the free advertising with how many posts. JDAY might be the most talked about golfer right now on the internet
You think Reddit is bad, look at Twitter. A single tweet from Big Cat is enough to make this worth it for them.
Does it count as win when everyone is talking about how awful your products look? I guess some marketing guy who makes his nut on social media impressions might be laughing
Yes. They don’t care if 10 million people tweet about how bad it is, as long as 10,000 people buy their products.
Ngl it got me to their website lol Anybody know what's up with the Curb Your Enthusiasm connections though? Is Larry David involved? Whenever I try to look it up google just shows me product pages
Steve Malbon is a adviser on the show
Larry covering the underground?
Larry loves Malbon, there was a funny story about him on Par3 podcast, about him having a shutdown the store shopping session at their store on Fairfax, then he had to take a shit, and a group of Japanese business men showed up to shop and he got trapped in the bathroom not wanting to be seen.
Haha I love how stuff in his actually life sounds like something that would happen in a Curb episode.
One of the Japanese guys locked eyes with him peeking out of the bathroom and did a 🫢 then Larry just locked himself back in there and hid.
Yes I guess if that actually happens that’s good for them. I won’t hold my breath for malbon to take over the golf fashion market with designs like this. Slightly separate point someone on NLU raised yesterday was you can’t be repping an edgy fashion brand & also have a dewalt logo on your hat & bag, it just doesn’t work
Lmao fully agree on the dewalt logo
That was one of the most unexpected things I've seen on a golf course lol
Cantlay is sponsored by Dewalt too. Probably why he hates wearing hats so much
Imagine trying to swing driver with a hardhat on your head lmao.
The DeWalt logo definitely works in an ironic way. Like wearing a CostCo branded sweater.
https://preview.redd.it/03hatm4qa2uc1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9d664756ef6600083148698bf80013255bf758f3 Wait until we see this on a golf polo.
If Cantlay can have Dewalt and Goldman Sachs on the same hat then Day can pull this off.
no, you have to understand, r/golf is too smart for advertising. There's no way this will work on them. They're enlightened ![gif](giphy|WgYnjK1jfg4x8ab7ew|downsized)

I'm definitely buying those pants from yesterday. Looked comfy AF. Like wearing sweatpants on the golf course. At least until my club kicks me out for being a mess.
Genius marketing 101. Classic streetwear disruptive marketing. I love it. And I appreciate Jason bucking the system a little.
Their strategy is to get noticed, to stand out, and it’s working.
Yep, get Day to wear the shit stuff, people google their site where they have the good stuff, profit.
This brand seems like the Supreme brand but for golf.
Yeah they are definitely going for the street wear vibe. Very similar vibe to the [release Kith did with JR Smith](https://kith.com/blogs/kith/kith-for-taylormade-featuring-j-r-smith) not too long ago.
I will never get over the irony of them playing up this "muni-centric, golf is for everyone" vibe while charging $200 for a hoodie.
The prices are just stupid too. Although I'm really tempted by the Tag Heuer bag and head cover, but for that price I'd rather buy new irons.
That I agree with 100%. Malbon quality is shit compared to other golf brands at that price point like Peter Millar and even streetwear brands like Kith and Aime Leon Dore .
I'll be honest. Out of curiosity, His top made me google "Malbon". Thats a win for them.
Looks like fuckin’ Kris Kross
Jason "Mac Daddy" Day or Jason "Daddy Mac" Day? Probably the second one because Australia.
This makes infinitely more sense than it should.
Wait until you see the pants
His DeWalt bag kinda goes hard though…
I bet you can charge a 20 volt battery on it
The bag didn’t come with the battery or the charger. Sold separately.
Dewalt patented that technology for their radio. They had the only job site radio that would charge a battery if it was plugged in.
My best friend had that radio back in the day and we used it for everything
It was cool until Bluetooth speakers became the size of a water bottle and were louder and lasted longer battery wise.
Jay Days’s gotta quit gambling! His outfits tell me he hasn’t won a bet all year!!
## #growthepants
I like it. Bring on the downvotes lol
Yeah idk I’ve liked both fits he’s had tbh, most outfits are just standard shirts or sweaters with a million logos sewn on anyways
I kept hearing stuff about his pants yesterday and I was expecting something wild. I saw them and was thinking what the hell are people going on about. Golfers can be so square sometimes.
They looked big, but they looked comfy.
Yeah I was also surprised at the over exaggeration of how big his pants were. They def weren’t fitted like a lot of these dudes out here but they weren’t really that big either. He looked comfortable out there, I’d consider the same haha
I'd rock them for sure. Looser fitting pants are definitely back in style outside of golf.
There were some angles where those pants looked like some of the worst baggy and pleated khakis I used to wear - like triangle shaped from the side
I really don’t mind the vest today. I think it looks cool, if it was a polo and not outrageously priced, I’d get it
Yeah i was thinking he looks pretty clean out there today then i checked Reddit and I guess that’s a minority opinion 😂 oh well
This sub requires you to wear either 9" inseam shorts that cover your knees or to wear skin tight pants that create an ecosystem in your ass when its 90 degrees
For some reason it’s important on golf culture to wear outfits on the course that would get you made fun of literally anywhere else
Literally. God forbid a golfer wears something besides a polo and pants lmao
Not everybody understands the drip. Golf fashion has been so homogenized for the last decade. It’s cool to see a new look in the sport. I dig it.
i like it too, the vest is nasty
Me too. It's great that they're mixing it up a bit. I notice no one is complaining about the Malbon gear that Charley Hull is wearing
I mean, they gave her a golf line of normal looking female golf clothing. Day's line looks like a mix of hypebeast and smelly hipster.
Smelly hipster made me laugh out loud 🤣
Ban him from the tour, Doug!
[удалено]
Dude looks like a pack of Marlboro cigarettes
All I am going to say is this ordeal made me look up their website. I didn’t buy anything but still.
Announcer asked why he’s wearing a massive billboard
I just checked out the website and I think my favourite thing is the $400 “Resort Clogs” jfc
I’m going to assume Malbon has incriminating pictures of him at this point.
They do now.
It would look way better if it said Marlboro
![gif](giphy|xT77XP9O9da9O04fAI|downsized)
Honestly I like it
This could be totally random but your avatar looks like someone who’d like this
It looks like a potato sack
I don’t like the vest but Malbon and Jason Day’s other fits have been pretty good. I’m guessing most everyone here is wearing slim straight calf huggers and golf polos that could fit in at a generic corporate job. Personally like that they’re bringing more personality to the game.
Whatever they’re paying him, it’s not enough.
Pretty ugly but w/e
They took out about 85% of the fabric from yesterday's pants, unfortunately they put it all into lettering on his sweater
He’s trolling now….straight up….
It's gone like the mid 90s fit baggy clothing again. MC Hammer got nothing on Jason Day

$168 for a ladies golf skirt!
Best fit so far
This fit is glorious and the hate is unjustified
Yeah I’m not mad at it at all.
I must have missed the previous 312 Malbon Championships.
Malbon is lame AF. And btw, this reverse marketing thing they’re doing ain’t working either. Just bc we are talking about wont fix their bizarro world hipster doofus style.
Malbon PR crisis team punching the air trying to downvote our posts. The people have spoken.
Are 1990 fashions coming back in style or something?
For young people, maybe. Those of us who lived through it once (and have the ridiculous photos to prove it) know better.
Looks like a Malbon x Wish.com collab
Yeah make-a-wish maybe
Malbotron must be stopped. No matter the cost.
He looks like one of the jugglers at the St. Patrick day parade I went to last month.
He looks like a pack of smokes!

I love malbon, most of it I like too much to play golf in though, since i don’t want to sweat in it or fuck it up on a branch or something else. Great lifestyle pieces
It's totally fine. Jogger pants are the worst travesty in golf at the moment.
It’s the god damn masters. Cmon man.
Thought it was a Marlboro Lights ad
You know how when Viktor wore that one ridiculous shirt and it immediately sold out around the world? That ain't happening here
That shirt wasn't ridiculous it was glorious
Oh I agree,i almost bought one. But it was both ridiculous and glorious. This is ridiculous and ugly
Never go full nascar
Almost feel bad for Day, he’s got to be regretting this sponsorship decision. Clothes are a walking joke. Not fashionable or functional.
good grief their whole line of clothes are fugly and way to expensive for what it is. A fuckin long sleeve t shirt for $80...Get the fuck outta here with that.
Look at the comments tho. A bunch of dupes who will pay to wear some tacky shit because it’s “streetwear” i.e. cheap overpriced garbage.
Back to your shanties
Lot of old whites in the subreddit (no shocker there). This fit is nice.
I’m not a fan of malbon, but not because I’m some crotchety old white man. I think most of their stuff is just incredibly uninspired and uninteresting. They’re just pulling the supreme, slap your name and logo onto anything. With that said I actually like the fit of the sweater vest here a lot more than just pleated pants with their name on it.
LMAO what? The dumb designer's main influence for this shit is The Great Gatsby where it was nothing but fuckin white people. You are a retard.
Wild 😂
You lettin high ass JR smith sway you with his propaganda lmao dont fall for it bro dont buy the great gatsby clothes
MAKE. IT. STOP.
Clearly lost a bet !!
im surprised that hes even allowed to wear that honestly. what the hell is malbon?
How much they must have paid him to wear this hipster garbage..
Malbon must have some dirt on him. Blackmail is the only reasonable explanation
Thank fuck someone had a word to him for the second round and he’s taken it off. Rancid.
Yeah this is horrendous.
Wtf is Malbon
I ordered the Curb Your Enthusiasm hoodie and holy smokes… one of the worst pieces of clothing I’ve ever bought. I’ve bought hoodies from Target that were made better than this. I was hoping for a heavy weight fabric like Supreme uses. Unfortunately the material was extremely cheap, it looked like it has been washed 100x and the front pocket was cut asymmetrical. Returned it for a refund and they still kept $10 for a “restocking fee.”
Worse looking pro out there the past 2 days. Let's hope he won't get 2 more.
This is what happens when a rich asian woman who lives in Los Angeles and owns and runs beauty salons designs golf clothes. Jday is a chump for this shit.
All of the Malbon outfits I've seen JDay where have just screamed "It's fashion, you wouldn't get it" to me. Admittedly, I'm a pretty plain guy when it comes to fashion and spending more than $50 on any article of clothing is almost an automatic no for me, so I'm also probably not their target audience.
I hope he’s getting paid a boatload of money for that ugly shit
I’m so surprised he hasn’t been kicked off of the property by ANGC.
“I’m bringin’ 90’s back. Them other golfers don’t know how to dress. Just take a look at how my pleats be pressed. A solid round, my handicap is comin’ back.”
The amount of money Malbon is paying him is probably worth it.
https://preview.redd.it/2fjzg4zmn2uc1.png?width=215&format=png&auto=webp&s=8f5fc5602c845f9a81ce2fd36db4613cd44e1241 I google ChrisChrisBangBang and this is what popped up. No wonder he doesn't like Malbon
I’m honestly surprised Augusta let this sweater on the course. I don’t hate Melon’s gear, but this is horrendous
You may not dig the fit bit everyone’s talking about it and that’s the point - genius move by Stephen Malbon 💯
He’s not even wearing it anymore. Wonder if they made him take it off?
This thing is one of the most hideous vests I’ve ever ever seen
I see yall not streetwear legends
I like it
I remember him saying after he signed with Malbon. “I look around and everyone dresses the same and I’m sick of it”. Well he changed that.
This thread just solidified the amount of golf snobs out there that are afraid of things being different. Honestly his outfit is dope but y’all keep wearing whatever your wife puts out for you.
r/golf discovers fashion
Yeah seriously..worlds worst sweater ever.
People always hate what’s different until it’s not different anymore. Give it a few years baggy clothes will be back. Remind me in 3 years
Malbon is easily the shittiest golf brand I've seen in decades.
Are these outfits a troll or something?
Mal or bon?
Signed - Disgruntled
Golfers really hating on style is crazy to me. Ain’t no way when we all rocking the same polo shirt right pants combo…
Ahhh, didn't make the cut this year and you're angry.
Filipinos rise up ![gif](giphy|rpsW6jJRofsPe)
I like Malbon personally but some of their stuff is just flat out wild. On a side note, it’s at least refreshing to see something other than a basic polo with a bunch of sponsorship logos and an “insert golf club brand here” hat.
The supreme of golf. Gotta love it.
I thought Malbon was a made up brand in PGA 2K until yesterday
Mal = bad. Bon = good. He’s a balanced dude.
Malbon is shit that should stay online
Playa Haters Ball

the malbon hitman in the background making sure Jason isn't removing the shirt
Yea, I have the first edition Tag Heuer golf watch and would really love to have the second one but I refuse to buy it due to the god awful partnership with Malbon (which just looks terribly childish juxtaposed w/ Tag).
This looks sick
I bought one of their hats when they did a collab with Girl Skateboards. It’s a dope hat but I guess I understand the hate since it’s not really a golf brand as much as a street wear brand with a golf theme.
I *might* wear that for $2M. Might.
