This Bushmills X Malbon Capsule Collection is a must-see for golf and style lovers
Influenced by the beautifully rugged North Coast of Ireland, this Bushmills x Malbon limited edition release successfully couples Bushmills' vibrant history with contemporary fashion for a unique and attention-grabbing line-up of must-haves.
Just a stone's throw from Royal Portrush Golf Club, the iconic venue hosting the 2025 Open Championship, Bushmills is home to the world's oldest licensed whiskey distillery. This scenic corner of Ireland is a global destination where great golf, exceptional whiskey, and rich local heritage go hand in hand.
Alex Thomas, Master Blender at Bushmills Irish Whiskey, had this to say about the collaboration, 'At Bushmills, we're incredibly proud to partner with Malbon once again on this second capsule collection – an exciting fusion of rich heritage and contemporary creativity. Golf and whiskey making are woven into the fabric of life here on the North Coast of Ireland, and with The Open taking place just around the corner from our home, this collaboration couldn't be more timely, or more meaningful.'
Bushmills' partner in this capsule collection, Malbon Golf, was founded in Los Angeles in 2017, where they grew from strength to strength by infusing the iconic and much-loved stylings of golf with the sense of inclusivity and empowering modernity of fashion, art, music, and design.
Stephen Malbon, who co-founded Malbon Golf with his partner Erica, tells us that 'Following last year's successful collaboration with Bushmills, which reimagined the timeless pairing of whiskey and golf, we knew we had to go even bigger for our second drop. With the world's oldest golf tournament unfolding in the Distillery's backyard, we're excited to debut a collection that infuses the spirit and flavour of Northern Ireland's North Coast into modern golf style.'
As for what to expect from the collection, the lineup is filled with stylish and trendy pieces and accessories that are perfectly suited for both your day on the greenway and your everyday look. If you're gifting to someone (or yourself!), the collection has something to suit every type of budget.
The impressively varied collection includes a baseball hat (£30), hoodie (£120), t-shirt available in both navy and white (£50), vest (£110), visor (£30), and windbreaker (£100).
These are accompanied by a Bushmills x Malbon Box Set with Flask & Bag Tag (£140), Decanter Set with Rock Glasses (£200), and a Glencairn Travel Set (£40).

Scottie Scheffler comments see Darts star James Wade tee off over 'easyJet vs private jet'
James Wade said the lifestyles of top darts and golf players cannot be compared as he brought up Scottie Scheffler's mode of transport after his latest win at the World Matchplay James Wade claimed darts players have it tougher than elite golfers as he brought up Scottie Scheffler's private jet and his use of budget airlines. Wade made the comments after continuing his pursuit of a second World Matchplay crown with a fine 11-5 win over Wessel Nijman. The 2007 champion showed in victories over Joe Cullen (10-3) and then Nijman why he is a genuine contender for glory at Blackpool's Winter Gardens. Wade is one of darts' most thoughtful players, and after his win over Nijman, he struck a similar tone to Scheffler. Before his recent Open Championship victory, he said about how there was more to life than his chosen profession. Sharing his own priorities in life away from darts, Wade said: "There's more important things outside of this. I want to go and eat fish and chips with my wife after this. This isn't that important. "I think people are too amplified on what you're achieving and what you're doing. I know I'm one of the best, probably top 10 in the world at the moment. Now I go home to see my wife, Arthur and Alfred [his children]. I'm winning. None of this is important. It's really not." When made aware of Scheffler's comments, Wade went on a tangent about top golfers' luxury lifestyles compared to that of leading darts players. He added: "I'm not really interested in what another golf player says because golf players aren't even close to being on the pressure or the pedestal that darts players are put upon. "You can't compare that. When he gets in his private jet... he doesn't have to get on an easyJet, he doesn't have to get on a happy bus, he doesn't have to do all those things. "So it's not comparable really. It's quite amazing that darts players achieve when they don't have that. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to be on a private jet and use a backward [private] entrance at an airport. But I'm a darts player. I will use easyJet, Ryanair, because I am what I am. "It's nothing about money, it's just how they travel. Would you travel 12 hours to get to a floor tournament?" Before The Open, Scheffler delivered a surprisingly candid press conference where he confessed that golfing success didn't fulfil him and that he valued being a devoted husband and father above everything else. However, after claiming the Claret Jug for the first time, he claimed his remarks had been misinterpreted and stressed he wasn't disrespecting the sport or diminishing his accomplishments. He said: "I think it really underestimates what I was trying to communicate. Maybe I didn't do as effective a job as I hoped to in communicating that. At the end of the day, I have a tremendous amount of gratitude towards moments like these. "I literally worked my entire life to become good at this game and play this game for a living. It's one of my greatest joys of my life to compete out here. "To be able to win The Open Championship here at Portrush is a feeling that's really hard to describe. This is amazing to win the Open Championship, but at the end of the day, having success in life, whether it be in golf, work, whatever it is, that's not what fulfils the deepest desires of your heart. "Am I grateful for it? Do I enjoy it? Oh, my gosh, yes, this is a cool feeling. It's just tough to describe when you haven't lived it." Wade is set to face Gian van Veen, who dumped out defending champion Luke Humphries in the first round, in the Matchplay quarter-finals on Thursday.

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) FANS turned on 'people's champ' Bryson DeChambeau after footage emerged of his 'disgusting behaviour' towards an Open volunteer. The American tied for 10th in Northern Ireland as Scottie Scheffler finished top of the pack. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Fans turned on Bryson DeChambeau for his behaviour towards an Open volunteer 2 The American did not live up to his billing as the 'people's champ' Supporters were hoping to see DeChambeau battle for first thanks to his popularity as the 'people's champ.' But the two-time US Open winner suffered a backlash after a video showed him acting rudely towards an unpaid volunteer. DeChambeau hit a wayward golf ball into the long grass over The Open weekend. The mis-hit clearly irked him as he trudged his way over to find it.

One said: 'The volunteer just stood there like Happy Gilmore on the Waterbury first tee box.' Another declared: 'Look at all these haters.'

CALUM CROWE: Sergio's outburst was the last straw ... these childish tantrums can no longer be tolerated
For a player who was once adored by the crowds at the Open Championship, a Ryder Cup legend who so nearly won the Claret Jug on multiple occasions, Sergio Garcia's drift into irrelevance has been a sad sight. Having made the decision to take the money and join LIV Golf from its inception in 2022, Garcia's bank balance may be bursting at the seams but his decline has been undeniable. Compare that to Justin Rose. Only six months younger than Garcia, Rose still regularly contends to win majors deep into his mid-40s. The Spaniard, meanwhile, relies on exemptions just to be able to play at all. And yet, despite all of that, Garcia still featured in the final-round coverage last Sunday at Royal Portrush - albeit for the wrong reasons. A wayward tee shot on the second saw the red mist descend to match Garcia's shirt. He angrily swiped his driver and slammed the clubhead into the ground, duly snapping it in two. To his credit, he still went on to shoot 68 despite having to play the rest of his round without a driver, but it was still a deeply unedifying moment for a man who was once so popular. Tyrrell Hatton has become one of the poster boys for bad behaviour on the golf course, including this meltdown at last month's US Open The red mist descended and matched the colour of Sergio Garcia's shirt during final round of The Open at Portrush Even Bob MacIntyre let himself down with occasional shows of petulance at Portrush It was also the latest in a growing list of such incidents. Whether it's fury on the fairways, tee-box tantrums, or blow-ups in the bunkers, these meltdowns are becoming a stain on the sport. We live in an age where these moments of rage are clipped and then shared on social media. They are trivialised and turned into moments of humour when they ought to be a source of embarrassment. At the US Open last month, pictures were shared online of the damage Wyndham Clark had caused to the locker room at Oakmont. Breaking a club is one thing, but destroying property that is not your own is a whole different level of arrogance and self-entitlement. Clark has since apologised but Oakmont have suspended him. He is banned from setting foot on the property and they will not reconsider that stance until he has repaid the damages in full and undertaken anger-management sessions. At the very same tournament, Rory McIlroy, the most globally-popular player in the game, was throwing clubs around and smashing a tee box at Oakmont. Rory McIlroy smashed a tee box during the US Open at Oakmont last month Tyrrell Hatton reacts with fury after a poor shot at the Dubai Desert Classic in January The damage allegedly caused to a locker room at Oakmont last month by an enraged Wyndham Clark Wyndham Clark has since been banned by Oakmost until he repairs the damage and takes anger-management course At a LIV Golf event in Dallas last month, five-time major champion Brooks Koepka smashed a tee box directly into a crowd of fans who were positioned only a few yards away. Fortunately, it didn't hit anyone. Tyrrell Hatton is in a league of his own with this stuff. At this year's USPGA Championship, the foul-mouthed Englishman was heard ranting and branding his driver a 'piece of s*** c***'. Only last season, during the DP World Tour Championship, another Hatton meltdown saw him snap a club in two. That led to Ewen Murray, the venerable voice of golf on Sky Sports, describing Hatton as 'a terrible influence on the next generation'. It's almost at the point now where it feels like Hatton has become a caricature of himself. Bob MacIntyre doesn't get a pass here either. For all we celebrate the Scot as a world-class talent, which he undoubtedly is, he still lets himself down at times with ill-tempered outbursts. In the third round at Portrush last weekend, MacIntyre was throwing clubs around and lashing out by taking a swipe at his own golf bag. All of this came just a few days after MacIntyre had explained how he still 'loses the plot' and 'breaks things' when things aren't going his way on the golf course. It does make you wonder what sort of example all of this sets for young kids. Sure, it should also be said that MacIntyre does more than most in terms of devoting his time to the next generation. Watching him at the Scottish Open recently, no player spent more time signing all kinds of hats, gloves and balls after his rounds. In that respect, he is a credit to himself. In terms of these outbursts on the course, however, he is not playing in the monthly medal at Glencruitten any more. The eyes of the world are watching him and he should learn to behave appropriately. Garcia, pictured during his final round at Portrush, had earlier snapped his driver in two after a wayward tee shot If any amateur golfer were to go around snapping clubs, smashing tee boxes, or having a swipe at their bag, they would be hauled up in front of the club committee and asked to explain themselves. Golf prides itself on etiquette. From a young age, we are taught to show respect, to replace divots, repair pitchmarks, rake bunkers, always shout fore when appropriate, always shake hands after a round - and never to throw clubs. MacIntyre was praised a few years ago when he collared his playing partner Kyle Stanley for failing to shout fore. He was absolutely right to do so. That was based on values, etiquette, and doing the right thing. Throwing clubs around should fall under the same bracket. These things matter. Pros shouldn't be treated any differently. Their petulance is not something to be celebrated or trivialised. For example, the DP World Tour put out a video a couple of years ago branded: 'Tyrrell Hatton, the angry golfer'. It featured all of his many tantrums and meltdowns over the years and was clearly intended to be funny. It was a poor reflection on the sport that the game's authorities were not only failing to discourage his behaviour, but were actively promoting it in some instances. As a sport, golf can make you angry. We all know that. At the last estimation, a solid 90 per cent of all golfers admitted to the odd sweary word here and there, while the other 10 per cent were liars. But for those frustrations to boil over into something more physical is the point where a line is being crossed. It should not be normalised and it is certainly not acceptable. Scottie is earning his stripes but he's still no Tiger Scottie Scheffler has been the most dominant player on the planet these past couple of years, with his brilliance setting the bar for everyone else. But comparisons with Tiger Woods are still premature and wide of the mark. Woods transcended the sport. He redefined golf. He could win a tournament by six shots and it would still feel exciting. He was box-office entertainment. Scheffler, by contrast, doesn't have the same level of appeal. As a character and personality, he lacks charisma and star quality. Scheffler celebrates his runaway victory at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland last weekend But he lacks the charisma of his legendary predecessor and fellow American Tiger Woods His comments last week about how the joy of winning lasts no more than a few minutes came across as insincere and did him no favours in terms of winning new fans. That's not to downplay the quality of golf he is producing. But to put him in the same bracket as Woods still feels like a bit of a stretch. Scheffler has profited from so many of his closest competitors defecting to LIV Golf. That's not his fault, of course, but the fields on the PGA Tour are now undoubtedly weaker than three or four years ago. To win four majors before the age of 30 takes some doing. But it should also be noted that Jordan Spieth had won three by the age of 23 and hasn't won any more since his triumph at Royal Birkdale in 2017. Back then, everyone was falling over themselves to make the same comparisons between Spieth and Woods. As the younger American would now testify, golf has a habit of getting away from you when you least it expect it. Tiger very much remains in a league of his own. Taylor's meteoric rise outshone his fall from grace Josh Taylor will go down as one of the all-time greats. Not only in Scotland, but as one of the best British boxers there's ever been. His rise to become an undisputed world champion at light-welterweight - cleaning out the division against top-level opponents - remains one of the great feats by any British fighter. Josh Taylor was an unstoppable champion when the Scottish fighter was at his peak Taylor had no easy nights either He was relentlessly going up against the very best of the best. In the end, it burnt him out. He had nothing left to give. As written in these pages after his defeat to Ekow Essuman in May, there comes a point in every elite fighter's career when it becomes impossible to reconcile the desire to carry on with the reality of what is unfolding in the ring. Taylor's run of defeats and his fall from grace over the past couple of years was sad to see, but it shouldn't diminish what an outstanding talent he was in his prime.
