Golf Wang, or Golf, is an American clothing company started in 2010 by rapper Tyler, the Creator of the hip-hop collective Odd Future. The company sells clothing, which is designed by Tyler. The name is a spoonerism of Wolf Gang. Collections are usually released twice a year, for Spring/Summer and for Fall/Winter. These are known as 'drops'. The same idea is used by the clothing company Supreme.

Golf Wang has also collaborated with skateboard shoe brand Vans. They have made several different pairs and colors, including shoes with the Odd Future donut logo.

Golf's first fashion show, named Golf 2016, was held on June 11, 2016, and was attended by Kanye West, Dylan and Cole Sprouse, Kendall Jenner, and YG. A new shoe brand named 'Golf le Fleur' was also announced at the show.[1][2][3][4]

Golf Media

Tyler also has an app, called Golf Media. This app is defined as "Tyler and his brain without restrictions and bullshit". The app costs $5 a month, the first week free. Subscribers get access to exclusive videos, music, photos, etc. Subscribers also get access to merchandise released on the website one day early.
