Streetwear Meets Golf: Metalwood Studio and Maxfli Team Up for a Fashion Revival
As streetwear-inspired silhouettes make their way onto the golf course, a new wave of players are drawn to the subcultural appeal of the sport, breaking down traditional barriers. Leading this fashion revival is Metalwood Studio, a lifestyle brand that blends elements of both sport and street, old and new. In their latest collaboration, Metalwood Studio pays tribute to the fusion of tradition and modernity with heritage golf brand Maxfli, celebrating 100 years of innovation and craftsmanship.
Founder Cole Young Draws Inspiration from Golf’s Rich History
Founder Cole Young finds inspiration in vintage golf advertisements and iconic imagery, using them to reinterpret the traditional dress code of the sport. The new collection features retro-inspired polo jerseys, zip-up hoodies, co-branded crewnecks, T-shirts, and trendy caps. The hats, in particular, pay homage to a famous image of Michael Jordan on the golf course, sporting a Maxfli-branded snapback with a cigar in his mouth. Other pieces, such as the checkered sports vest, take inspiration from the cool and casual style of golf legend Fred Couples. The T-shirts and crewnecks feature retro motifs that celebrate Maxfli’s historic line of Australian Blade Golf Clubs, which were once synonymous with the game and known for their precision engineering.
Maxfli’s Tour Golf Balls Combine Tradition and Innovation
Maxfli’s Tour Golf Balls, endorsed by LPGA Tour winner Lexi Thompson and pro golfer Ben Griffin, embody the brand’s commitment to both heritage and innovation. The balls are meticulously engineered with a patented Center-of-Gravity balancing process to reduce side spin and improve consistency. The tetrahedron dimple pattern and Soft Cast Urethane shell provide a soft feel and optimal aerodynamics, helping players with control and distance. The polo jerseys in the collection feature custom appliques with Australia’s stars, a nod to the design of the Tour Golf Balls. They are available in blue/white and red/blue colorways.
Shop the Collection and Maxfli’s Line of Golf Gear
The Metalwood Studio x Maxfli collection is available for purchase on Metalwood’s website, while Maxfli’s line of golf gear can be found at DICK’s Sporting Goods and Golf Galaxy stores and online. With this collaboration, Metalwood Studio and Maxfli prove that traditions can be reinterpreted and modernized, while still honoring the rich history of the game.
