Korea's inaugural golf museum, the World Golf History Museum works in collaboration with Yale University on a special Club House collection. The capsule is full of golf wearables that are made with a contemporary wearer in mind. The museum is notably the only museum where visitors are able to view golf memorabilia that dates all the way back to the 17th century.
The historical designs capture the vivid evolution of golf apparel and the gear as well. The collaborative capsule is full of relaxed fits with a highlight of knitted sweaters and golf bag graphics. It continues with cardigans with checkered details and stitching that nods to Yale University, logo patch shirts, caps, sweaters, vests, and much more.
