Bogey Boys was founded by Seattle native and hip-hop artist Macklemore. He broke onto the scene with his hit “Thrift Shop” but his clothing line doesn’t follow suit. So why in the world did a hip-hop artist create a golf-focused clothing line? His love for the game started like many of ours did, that euphoric feeling of flushing your first iron shot, and we’ve all been chasing the second one ever since.
In the Bogey Boys ensemble of clothes you can definitely see Macklemore’s style infused into every collection they drop. It’s not the golf attire you are used to seeing out on the course, but it’s a fresh and new take that one could argue golf apparel needs.
The Collections
Bogey Boys tends to do their apparel drops grouped by collections. With each new drop bringing a different set of prints, styles, and clothing types. They currently have four collections live on their site.
Obviously this is a play on words for golf greens but this collection actually is all green focused clothing. The collection offers everything from:
T-shirts
Cardigan Sweaters
Polos
Button-up Shirts
Pants
Jackets
Crew Neck Sweatshirts
BB Essentials
The BB Essentials collection was a release centered around the items you wear everyday. Nothing too snazzy here, it’s mainly a collection for fans of the brand to be able to represent Bogey Boys off of the golf course. The drop includes:
Hats
Hoodies
T-shirts
Socks
Summer Course Collection
The Summer Collection introduces bright and crisp colors for your summer time golf tee times. This collection includes the same types of clothing but in lighter colors to keep you cooler during those hot summer rounds.
T-shirts
Button-ups
Pants
Polos
Socks
Nordstrom New Concepts
In this collection you can really see Macklemore’s hip-hop influence integrated in his clothing line. It houses the apparel with the most flair and pizzazz that the company offers. If you truly want to stand out show up to the 1st tee wearing one of Bogey Boys leopard print polos. This collection has the usual suspects:
T-shirts
Polos
Vest
Jackets
Pants
Button-ups
Bottom Line
Bogey Boys is blazing the trail for loud, vibrant prints and chic style clothing for our beloved game of golf. They are part of this new era of apparel brands that are bringing a more diverse demographic into the game of golf. The majority of the old timers might not understand it but go out and break 80 in a leopard print polo and there’s not a whole lot they can say.
