Miura’s new Origin hoodie is a testament to the changing trends in the golf-fashion space. In fact, I’d dare to say — golfer or not — this hoodie is objectively cool. As fashion week comes to a close in NYC, street style is top of mind, and this hoodie would not look out of place strutting down the streets of Soho. It wouldn’t look out of place strutting down the fairway either.
Miura’s Japanese heritage is clearly reflected in the design that’s inspired by the country’s flag, and maybe that’s part of the reason Miura can make apparel that feels more sartorial than what we typically see in golf? Japanese fashion is — and always has been — ahead of the curve when it comes to trends, the same way that Miura’s unique hand-forging process sets the bar for feel and performance within the golf space. The brand is able to push the bounds of trend in an authentic, original way that makes me want to buy this hoodie ASAP.
