Gap與Malbon二度聯手,35件單品把高爾夫球場與網球場的界線拆了

A rugby polo is supposed to belong on the sidelines, a pleated skirt within the white lines of a tennis court — but the second Gap x Malbon collaboration is all about breaking apart these unspoken scene assumptions and putting them back together. This season, called the Gap x Malbon Fall 2026 Collection, carries on the logic from the debut 2025 collab, but scales up to 35 pieces across men's and women's categories.

The lineup reveals each brand's own DNA at work: Gap brings archive silhouettes rooted in American sportswear, while Malbon layers on the visual language it's built up in golf and lifestyle circles. Specific pieces include the classic rugby polo, pleated skirts, prep-style knits, oversized outerwear, and limited-edition golf accessories stamped with both logos. The combination points to one clear dressing scenario: going from the tennis court to the golf course without needing to change outfits in between.

The campaign, shot by director Duncan Wolfe, features a cast of brand friends and creators, centering on community and self-expression while showing how the pieces move fluidly between the course and the street.

The Gap x Malbon Fall 2026 Collection officially launches Friday, August 21, 2026, at 12 PM ET / 9 AM PT, dropping simultaneously online and at 18 Gap stores nationwide, with prices ranging from $28 to $250.
