The culture of golf has changed-the modern golfer is media-savvy, stylish-golfing isn't just a game but a lifestyle choice. As an established, successful brand selling to 55 countries, we believe it’s the ideal time to ramp up our growth in line with the huge uptake in golf globally.

We’ve had a 2.5x increase in orders from 2019 to 2020 (10.5k+ orders in 2020), with 69% of customers returning in 2021. Since inception, we’ve chosen to build a community rather than just customers, resulting in authentic fans who are natural brand advocates & help to carry our Bunker Mentality across the globe. We have 53K+ combined social media followers, who support not only our bold fashion range but our Bunker events too. These have included golf festivals, monthly meet-ups & a digital golf club of paid members.

We’re raising to optimise stock, produce new products, & to increase our marketing, content creation and events management.

There are millions of passionate golfers & we’re here to support a new wave of golf culture with a mentality that celebrates both the game and their lifestyle. It’s an old game with a new breed. Join us.

==Team==

Whilst on a business trip Robert came across a 'golf lifestyle' magazine called Bogey. Suddenly there was a new view of golf and this was the catalyst that inspire them to create a golf brand called Bunker Mentality.

The brand launched with 7 graphic t-shirt designs with Harrods being one of their first customers. This was 18 years ago, and they haven't looked back. Obsessed with quality from the beginning, Robert hand pressed every one of the t-shirts ordered by another early customer, House of Fraser.
