Malbon’s Men’s Fall collection runs to eighty-eight pieces and about twenty-seven of them matter, which is the most useful thing anyone can tell you about a drop this size. Those twenty-seven carry the whole thing.
What holds it together is a named spine. Malbon built Ironworks Division out of heavyweight stone-washed hickory-stripe denim, the striped cotton that painters and railroad crews wore, and ran it across a jacket, a carpenter short, a pair of overalls, a sweatshirt, a snapback and a driver headcover. Antique nickel hardware and hammer loops carry through the lot, with the Division artwork across the back of the Foreman jacket. It is the least golf-looking thing Malbon has made.
Underneath it run three other threads. A stone-washed herringbone twill called Station covers a shirt, a pant and a cap. An all-over Inkwash print carries two windshirts and a short. The knits, Crosscut and Brickwork, do the quiet work the logos usually do.
Two collaborations close it out, and both are better than anything Malbon made on its own.
The Spine of the Whole CollectionMalbon put a name on it this season. Ironworks Division is a run of heavyweight stone-washed striped denim in hickory stripe, the cloth painters and railroad workers wore, with antique nickel hardware and hammer loops. It is the most committed thing in the collection.
Three Ways to Handle a Cold MorningThree layers here handle a cold morning, and the reversible flannel is the interesting one. Solid cotton on one face and contrasting plaid on the other, collarless and open-fronted so it works as a shirt jacket rather than a coat.
Herringbone, Chambray and the Inkwash PrintThe Station Shirt is stone-washed cotton herringbone twill with engraved snap closures, in brown and in olive. The Inkwash windshirt is the technical end of the collection, in nylon and elastane with mesh-lined back venting and a print that repeats on the shorts.
Where the Fabric Does the TalkingThere are no logos to speak of in this group. The Crosscut is a cotton-cashmere pointelle knit with a full button front and the Brickwork is an enzyme-washed open knit. The Fairway comes in overdyed heavyweight pique with contrast white stitching.
Pleats, Herringbone and One Technical ShortThe Station Pant is the same stone-washed herringbone as the shirt, and the lookbook is clearly encouraging you to buy both. The Scooter is the technical outlier in the group.
The Two CollaborationsThe two best pieces in the collection are both made by somebody else. One is a Red Wing oxford on a Goodyear welt and the other is a divot tool from CLUCT in Tokyo.
Ironworks Division is a workwear sub-line within Malbon's Fall 2026 collection, built from heavyweight stone-washed striped denim — hickory stripe — with antique nickel hardware. It includes the Foreman Jacket ($348), Foreman Short ($248), Foreman Overall ($348), Foreman Sweatshirt ($168), Foreman Snapback ($58) and the Division Driver Cover ($128).
Yes. The Red Wing Moc Oxford is a collaboration between Malbon and Red Wing, reworking Red Wing's Shop Moc Oxford for golf. It is built in full-grain oiled Oro Legacy leather tanned by Red Wing's own S.B. Foot Tanning Company, with a moc toe, Goodyear welt construction and a Traction Tred outsole. It retails at $400.
It uses Goodyear welt construction, which is the standard resolable shoe construction and is what allows traditional work boots to be rebuilt rather than replaced. Almost no modern golf shoe is built this way, as most use cemented or injection-moulded soles.
It is a collaboration with CLUCT, a Tokyo streetwear label, featuring artwork by Kaji of Joytown Tattoo Studio. Malbon state each piece is handcrafted in Japan from brass with a thick sterling silver (925) coating. It retails at $78.
Inkwash is an all-over print that appears on the Pine Inkwash Windshirt in two colourways, indigo and olive, and on the matching Scooter Inkwash Short. The windshirts are 88% nylon and 12% elastane with mesh-lined back ventilation; the short is lightweight stretch nylon with a five-inch inseam.
Station pieces are made from stone-washed cotton herringbone twill, described by Malbon as army herringbone twill. The fabric runs across the Station Shirt ($228, in brown and olive), the Station Pant ($228) and the Station Snapback ($48).
The picks in this post run from $48 for the Station Snapback to $400 for the Red Wing Moc Oxford. Most of the collection sits between $148 and $248, with the heavyweight Ironworks denim outerwear and the Foreman Overall at $348.
Yes. At the time of writing Malbon list the Grounds Reversible Jacket and the Foreman Sweatshirt as preorder items shipping 26 August. Availability changes, so check the product page before ordering.
