Manors Golf leans into tradition with the new Club Collection

Club culture has found itself in the crosshairs of more progressively-minded golfers as a rebellious streak has taken over golf in recent years. Stuffy clubhouses, expensive waiting lists and prohibitive rules are out. A new, more inclusive mentality has taken hold.

But while this is all great, there's something to be said for honouring the aesthetic of the great clubs that helped build our game, without whom golf would simply be a game of frustration rather than camaraderie. And it's precisely this vein of golf's rich culture that Manors has chosen to mine for its latest collection.

While Manors' last major drop, the Fairweather collection, was a celebration of the enduring, poetic battle golf poses between man and nature, the Club Collection celebrates the exclusive comforts of the clubhouse in a way designed to be traditional without resorting to the gatekeeping golf is often so notorious for.

"Great golf is a finite resource," explains Creative Director Luke Davies. "We wanted to imagine a world where the exclusivity of our game rewarded people who were totally obsessed rather than people who were well connected or financially well off. We thought it would speak to a lot of golfers.”

As such, the Club Collection represents a departure from the outerwear-led aesthetic that defined the Fairweather collection and leans more readily into traditional golfing aesthetics – all the while embracing fabrics that place an onus on course-ready performance, innovation and sustainability. 

Striped and checkered polo shirts made from soft Seawool® fabric – a material derived from recycled Oyster shells that's become something of a signature for the brands – are dressed in understated tones of deep blue, green, black and cream, while a new collared, buttonless Club Polo is also offered, drawing its silhouette from '90s football shirts.

New hoodies and polo shirts also arrive ready for the warmer months, made from ultra-lightweight, cooling Polartec fabric to provide not just an incredibly breathable option for hot days, but a perfect layering option on unpredictable spring days. 

The new Highland Pullover is a new packable layering option, styled with a subtle mock neck in the style of '90s windbreakers for added warmth while retaining the stretch and water resistance golfers need.

That's not to say there isn't a distinct element of the tongue-in-cheek running through the collection as well. Manors' signature wavy repeater pattern features as a full-garment print for the first time on the zip-up Ranger Polo, while a new Pebble Pattern polo also offers a more eye-catching option for golfers who want to push the boat out a little.
