Golf Wang One Star
Golf Wang x Converse One Star
Whenever you ask a golfer what their favorite player is, they will probably tell you that it is either Tiger Woods or Phil Mickelson. And while it is true that the two are popular, there are many other players that are just as good, or even better. One of them is Tyler Hamilton. He is a young golfer with a very youthful attitude, and he is still playing on the PGA Tour. He has a golf line of clothing that is his own, and his attitude has not changed over the years.

The Converse x Golf Wang GOLF le FLEUR* sneaker features a floral motif on the outsole, while the upper is made of suede. It also features custom graphics on the insole and a debossed Golf le Fleur logo on the tongue.
Earlier this year, Tyler, the Creator released two new colorways of the Chuck 70 sneaker. The shoe also features a rainbow sole and a polka dot design. He also released a video teaser that teased new colorways. The “Velvet le Fleur” line includes reworks of the “Chuck 70” in purple and red.
Tyler’s youthful attitude hasn’t changed
Despite his age, Tyler, The Creator isn’t one to hide his youthful attitude. Whether he’s posing for a fashion shoot or performing at an awards show, he seems to have no trouble entertaining his fans with his antics.
Before he formed the hip hop group Odd Future, Tyler was a self-taught rapper, writing and recording music on his own. Eventually, he was joined by his friend Left Brain. Both men were familiar with the music production program Reason.
The group’s first big partnership was with Vans. Their first two collections included a series of collabs. They later branched out into a full-blown clothing line. Their brand became an instant symbol for the youthful crowd that had come to know the Odd Future name.
Tyler’s clothing line became a separate entity
Whether you’ve been following Tyler’s career for years or are just discovering him, you’ve probably heard of his Golf Wang line. It started as a part of Odd Future, but in 2012 it became a standalone brand. While it may have started out as a small merchandising venture, it soon became a cult following among fans and skaters alike.
After Odd Future’s breakup in 2013, Tyler took his creative control and began to focus on his Golf Wang clothing line. At first, the line was more of an Odd Future-inspired piece, with bright colors, fluorescent graphics, and a fun, playful aesthetic.
In December 2011, Golf Wang released its first lookbook. It featured colorful, skate decks, OFWGKTA graphics, and pastel prints.
