It offered connection, balance, and a way to stay grounded. As their passion for the game deepened, they embraced its history and saw an opportunity to open the sport to a broader, more diverse audience.
They committed to blending classic golf culture with modern creativity. Fashion, music, art, and street culture all play a role in shaping Malbon’s identity, reflected in their signature script and Buckets. Malbon respects the sport’s roots while pushing its boundaries.
Malbon designs apparel with individuality in mind. Through standout collaborations and original collections, the brand encourages self-expression on and off the course. Supporters like PGA Tour winner Jason Day and skate icon Eric Koston, Malbon draws inspiration from across different cultures. Initiatives like Bucket’s Club and Youth On Course reflect its drive to make golf more inclusive.
Malbon builds more than clothing, it builds community. From the beginning, Stephen and Erica wanted to create something meaningful and personal. They saw potential in golf to become more open, more creative, and more welcoming. What started as a passion has grown into a cultural force grounded in storytelling and shared experience.
