Jason Day is currently setting a bold and fearless standard on the PGA Tour with his distinctive fashion choices, courtesy of the golf apparel brand Malbon.
Each week, his ensembles spark discussions among golf enthusiasts and style watchers alike.
Known for his daring style, Day has been spotted in eye-catching sweater vests, breezy linen pants, and vibrantly colored shorts during practice rounds. However, it was at the U.S. Open at Pinehurst No. 2 in North Carolina where he took his style game to another level.
During the second round of this major championship, Day debuted a striking pair of baby blue golf shoes, which quickly became a topic of conversation among golf fans. The feedback ranged from enthusiastic endorsements to more reserved compliments. “Those are awesome!” exclaimed one fan, captivated by the refreshing color choice. Another fan, while acknowledging the shoes were not to their personal taste, admitted, “Not my style but those shoes are pretty cool!”

Malbon’s bold designs have not been without their critics, yet a user defended the brand, stating, “Malbon has some absolutely fire outfits, and they’re getting hate they don’t deserve.” Meanwhile, another fan praised the simplicity and elegance of the look: “Simple and slick!”
While opinions on his recent wardrobe choices have varied, with one user commenting, “I haven’t loved his recent stuff…but those shoes are awesome,” the consensus about the baby blue golf shoes was overwhelmingly positive. “That robin’s egg blue is very nice,” noted another user, appreciating the unique color. Even a critic of Day’s previous outfits conceded, “I’ve hated every single thing he’s worn/you’ve shoved in our faces – but do like these kicks.”
On the course, Day faced challenging conditions during the first round of the U.S. Open, finishing with a one-over-par 71 on a course that was unforgiving, severely penalizing players for any mishits.
As the tournament progressed into the second round, Day was performing at +1 through the first nine holes, bringing him to +2 overall in the tournament and tying him for 44th place at the time of reporting.
Day’s bold fashion choices, especially those standout baby blue shoes, not only highlighted his fearless approach to style but also underscored his presence on the golf course, making him as much a topic of conversation for his wardrobe as for his gameplay.
