Plus-Four On The Comeback Trail

The U.S.A may have cause for celebration after their Ryder Cup win last weekend, but one thing that we here at GP Towers got out of our Ryder Cup caper is the return of the plus-four to golf’s fashion scene.

Having rocked up to Moortown Golf Club last Thursday, fitted head to toe in full 1920’s golf dress, the talk of the office is when will the look come back into fashion?

Idiots.

Well wait no longer because the introduction of Andre Benjamin’s (a.k.a Andre 3000, Ice Cold or ‘Dre) clothing line, Benjamin Bixby, is bringing the plus-four back with a vengeance.

Anyone who has ever seen a televised Andre appearance knows the Atlanta MC has a flair for tailored flamboyance. Now fans of Andre’s distinctive style can snag a piece for themselves.

The look is a late 1930’s inspired line drawn from old college documentaries and is envisioned by Andre as someone “kind of like your uncle, or your granddad, and he has a closest full of experiences and clothes, and he’s been around the world.”


Not an idiot.


With rumours circulating that Ian Pouter wants to bring the look back into his designs, look out for the old school Walter Hagan look coming to a course near you soon.
