Adidas and Malbon Golf are launching a special capsule collection, "The Crosby Collection," inspired by Bing Crosby's iconic Clambake event, known for its fusion of golf, fashion, and entertainment. This limited-edition release features apparel and footwear for both men and women, drawing inspiration from the fashion of the 1930s and 1940s.
The collection pays homage to the spirit of Bing Crosby's Clambakes, offering modern interpretations of classic silhouettes from that era. For men, pieces include button-down polos, pleated trousers, crewnecks, and an iconic cardigan, while women's options feature a colour-blocked dress, polos with unique sleeve designs, and form-fitting culotte pants. All items incorporate Adidas' advanced technology suitable for golfing.
Dylan Moore, creative director at Adidas Golf, expresses the collection's intent to honour the historical significance of golf fashion while acknowledging its enduring influence on contemporary style. Malbon Golf co-founder Stephen Malbon emphasizes the collection's tribute to Bing Crosby's legacy and his Clambake tradition, which embodied the timeless connection between sport, style, and camaraderie.
In addition to the apparel range, the collection includes accessories such as a checkered anorak, clam decanter-themed T-shirts, and a 5-panel hat. Two limited-edition footwear models, the Stan Smith Golf and the MC87, blending performance and style, will also be available.
The Crosby Collection launches on January 29, exclusively on adidas.com, the Adidas app, malbongolf.com, and select Adidas and Malbon Golf retail outlets. It will be available in limited quantities, with the collection hitting shelves in Japan and Korea on January 30.
