I was recently perusing that unmentionable online auction site looking for some bargain clothing to spend my Christmas Money on. I came across the usual worn once T-shirts, trousers shoes etc as was to be expected. Being a little tightfisted I limited my search to £5 and under.
After an hour or so I happened across a brand new, with tags Tank Top by Dangerous Golf. A brand that until that point I had not heard of. Now with just an hour to go this was priced at just £3 with bids. Worth a punt I thought. I entered my maximum bid £8.51 and began my research into Dangerous Golf so I could consider if needs be bidding up to £10.01 if I liked what I read.
Well I discovered that Dangerous Golf was started in 2012 by a chap called Dean who resides on the Isle Of Man. Deans main occupation is teaching, but he thought he would try to introduce a modern brand of clothing to the Manx Courses and thus began Dangerous Golf. The website is terribly old fashioned and you can tell this is as much a hobby for Dean as a business.
So back to the Auction, liking what I had read I sat ready as the auction neared the end ready to bid up at the last moment. However there was no competition and I won the Top for just £8.50 including postage.
I was chuffed when the postman rolled up just three days later and delivered my new Top. It came well packaged with tags as advertised. The design is Grey with Orange lines forming a diamond pattern with a little chap having just whacked a 160 yard 7 iron to 10 feet (I may be speculating on this part) as the motif. It's a medium weight (although the advert states heavyweight) and ideal for wearing on the course as a result. The arm holes could be a little larger but they are not overly restrictive which is pleasing. It has Dangerous Golf written in large font on the hem but this is quite discreet due to the placement.
Personally I am not a fan of the 80's comic book style font that is used in the Dangerous Golf branding, but it is discreetly placed.
The sizing is perhaps a little small so I would recommend sizing up by one for a looser fit.
Overall I am chuffed with my purchase and will be looking to support this small company in the future. Good quality clothing a sensible prices.
