MARK & LONA Unveils Art-Inspired Golf Apparel
In an exciting initiative, the luxury golf apparel brand MARK & LONA is set to launch its first collaboration with the renowned Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met) on January 7, 2026. This groundbreaking collection will be available through MARK & LONA's official online store and their Aoyama location in Tokyo.
The new collection creatively harnesses The Met's vast art collection, focusing on skull artwork by celebrated artists Wenceslaus Hollar, Herman Henstenburgh, and Pieter Claesz. For the first time, MARK & LONA integrates the realms of art and golf, presenting a unique reinterpretation of skull designs that merge artistic expression with functional fashion. The brand aims to offer customers a fresh way to experience art in their daily lives and during golf rounds.
Among the featured items is a reversible down jacket that showcases skull art and the brand logo on both sides. This innovative piece is lightweight yet highly insulated, making it a versatile choice for varying weather conditions and styling preferences. Additionally, the collection includes stylish hats crafted from smooth twill material, providing both comfort and aesthetic appeal for a range of settings—from golf courses to urban outings.
MARK & LONA's latest venture draws inspiration from three key artworks that symbolically depict skulls:
- - Wenceslaus Hollar: Skull in Profile to Right
- - Herman Henstenburgh: Vanitas Still Life
- - Pieter Claesz: Still Life with a Skull and a Writing Quill
Each artwork's symbolism and composition served as a foundation for the design, resulting in a unique take on MARK & LONA's signature skull motif. By fusing art elements with high-fashion sensibilities, the brand has created an exclusive skull graphic that is distinctly its own.
