Malbon's Year of the Horse Collection Fuses Street Style and the Sophistication of Golf

Los Angeles-based golf lifestyle brand Malbon has just dropped a Chinese New Year collection that might make you want to pick up a golf club next time you are out and about town.

With more Filipinos taking up the sport each day, Malbon is positioning golf apparel as a cool aesthetic for folks who may or may not actually strike a few balls on the weekend. Its Year of the Horse Collection, alongside a collaboration with juggernaut tea brand CHAGEE, brings tracksuits, track pants, and jackets fashioned with subtle detailing inspired by Chinese culture and street-ready expression commemorating the Lunar New Year.

February 18 marked the launch of the collection at the Malbon flagship store in Bonifacio Global City, an Asia-exclusive capsule launch spanning the Philippines, Vietnam, and China. The multi-sensory Lunar New Year event was driven by the Filipino-Chinese community, and featured a live Chinese calligraphy station, a traditional dragon dance performance, a custom mocktail tea bar with CHAGEE products, and a golf simulator activation with short-course challenges.

"Malbon's activation recognized the community not simply as an audience, but as a driving force in shaping Manila's evolving lifestyle landscape," the brand said in a statement. "By merging heritage symbolism with contemporary design, Malbon Philippines demonstrated how experiential retail can deepen cultural connection while driving modern brand expression."

We can see this golf-chic ethos being pushed by Malbon, and it is quite the untapped style subculture worth taking a swing at if you want to switch up your wardrobe for something more effortless and suave.

You do not really have to be a seasoned putter or a PGA nerd to get into Malbon's understated pieces. The aesthetic speaks for itself, and this Lunar New Year collection may just compete with some of the other piping hot drops from other sportswear players out there.

"As the lines between sport, fashion, and culture continue to blur, Malbon reinforces its position as more than a golf brand. It is a lifestyle movement redefining how the game is lived and worn," the brand said.

The Year of the Horse Collection is now available at the Malbon Philippines flagship store in BGC.
