Australian Golf Brand Walker Golf Things Teams Up With Sydney Pitch and Putt Shortees
An apparel range taking inspiration from baseball pinstripes and appliqué patches.
Golf can get a bad wrap sometimes due to country clubs and their strict rules around dress code and etiquette, but pitch and putt courses are in many ways the antidote to that. It’s a low stakes environment that’s more approachable for beginners, but even more advanced players enjoy the opportunity to take the game a little less seriously. On top of that, people are given license to express their personality through style. That’s why Walker Golf Things, an Aussie golf apparel brand founded by a bunch of current and former skaters, teamed up with one of the most popular Sydney area pitch and putt courses in Shortees.
Said Shortees: “Shortees has always loved the look and feel of Australian brand Walker Golf Things, they make gear you can wear on the course and to the pub. That’s important to us.”
The 8-piece collection is inspired by the classic baseball aesthetic with pinstripes, caps and appliqué patches. A pair of knit polos kick off the highlights, either of which could be worn for golf or a night out. Both have vertical pinstripes and co-branding on the collar and left chest. The Shortees x Walker Stasher Shorts have a more athletic feel given they’re made of lightweight micro ripstop, but the belt loops allow it to be worn with a tucked-in polo as well. Finally, the hero item is the 54 Varsity Jacket, which features a snap button closure, Walker branding across the chest and number 54, which is par for the course at Shortees, on the reverse side.
The collection is priced between $45 and $180 USD and can be bought on Shortees or Walker Golf Things’ website.
