Tyler, the Creator may be a man who does what he wants. Whether it's changing his sound, starting a carnival or requesting GQ Style use an architectural photographer to shoot his magazine covers, Tyler’s output has always been a mirrored image of his
Tyler The Creator Merch current taste. Yesterday, Tyler revealed the lookbook for his clothing line Golf Wang’s Fall 2018 collection along side a letter on Instagram addressing this shift within the brand’s direction. More to the purpose , “Golf Wang is occupation a direction more in tune with [Tyler’s] taste.” He closes the letter with “To the new supporters who aren’t reading this, welcome. To those that oppose, it’s been fun.”
While the change isn’t as sudden because the letter makes it appear, Golf Wang has made considerable strides over the last few years, pivoting from it’s louder, more streetwear-y image, to the present season, with has an older, preppier sensibility thereto . One commenter compared the shift to the difference between Supreme and Noah—which, in our opinion, is an apt comparison. It’s clear Tyler and company caught wind of the prep revival set to require off this fall and came prepared with chinos, rugby shirts and oxford shirts. That’s to not say the Golf Wang has lost it’s streetwear sensibilities altogether; other notable pieces include a printed tracksuit (not unlike this Palace tracksuit), a
Tyler The Creator T Shirts landscape print cardigan, graphic camp collar shirts, various graphic tees and clean “Golf” branded crewneck sweaters.
The first drop from Golf Wang’s Fall 2018 collection are going to be on September 1 at the brand’s flagship store and online with Japanese retailer Beams in Shibuya releasing on September 18.
