Gumtree Golf & Nature Club Is Your Favorite Golf Brand's Favorite Golf Brand

This isn't a retailer; it's a fresh-air perspective on golf.

This is Karsten, the brilliant creative behind Gumtree Golf & Nature Club. When he moved from Melbourne to the bustling streets of New York City in 2017, Karsten found himself enamored with the city's relentless pace and chaotic beauty. Yet, it was this very chaos from which he longed to escape. Growing up a surfer, he'd always found solace in nature, traveling to the most remote corners of Australia in pursuit of the perfect wave.

In the concrete jungle of New York, Karsten re-discovered golf—not just as a sport, but as a sanctuary. A golf course at sunrise became his retreat, a place where the local flora and fauna painted a vivid backdrop, far removed from the urban hustle. This connection to nature reignited a passion, leading him to create a brand that blends the beauty of natural environments with the spirit of golf.

Gumtree Golf & Nature Club is more than a brand; it's a fresh-air perspective on golf. It's about upcycling textiles from the 1950s—turning State Flower lace shirts, handmade heirloom quilted bucket hats, and T-shirts with powerful statements into something more than just apparel. Each piece tells a story, each collection serves a purpose. From goods for golf to gear for nature, Karsten's creations remind us of the game's inherent beauty.

In a sport often marked by tradition, Gumtree stands out by threading the past with the present, crafting items that not only serve golfers but also speak to the environmentalist in each of us.

Karsten's journey from surfer to urbanite to golf apparel innovator encapsulates what makes Gumtree Golf & Nature so unique. It’s a testament to how a simple game can connect us more deeply to the world around us—and to ourselves. This brand doesn't just offer products; it offers a way to experience golf anew, through the lens of nature and nostalgia.
