The idea

The finest club pieces don’t feel like merchandise. They feel like membership in a place you never quite leave.

The first piece

Made to beremembered.

The Founders Edition cap is bobbn’s opening statement: a familiar club essential made singular through extra-fine merino, seamless construction, and one unmistakable line of blue.

The recognition

Signature Stitch

A single cobalt stitch makes bobbn recognizable without announcing itself—the kind of detail members notice twice.

The yarn

Zegna BaruffaWashable Wool.

Spun in Italy since 1836. bobbn begins with Zegna Baruffa merino—one of the most respected fine-wool spinners in the world, and the quiet standard behind the knitwear of Europe’s great houses. Refined enough for the clubhouse, washable enough for real life. It is why the cap feels the way it does before a single stitch is formed.

01

Since 1836

Zegna Baruffa Lane Borgosesia has spun fine wool in Piedmont, Italy for nearly two centuries.

02

Washable wool

Easy-care finishing means the cap washes at home and keeps its softness and shape—refined, never precious.

03

Extra-fine merino

Long-staple fleece selected for micron count, then combed and spun for softness with resilience.

04

Responsibly sourced

Traceable, non-mulesed fleece and mill practices held to European environmental standards.

The making

Made inNew York.

Knit whole, in one seamless piece. Every cap is formed in New York City with Tailored Industry—stitch by stitch, to shape. No cut panels, no offshore minimums, no leftover inventory—just American manufacturing precise enough to make a club edition of a few hundred worth doing properly.

100% seamless

Knit whole on a 3D machine—no cut panels, no side seams, nothing to rub or press.

02

Made in New York

Produced in Brooklyn by Tailored Industry, minutes from the people who design it.

03

Made to order

Digital knitting means near-zero fabric waste and small, precise runs per club.

04

Endlessly tunable

Club colors, crown height, and stitch placement change in the file, not the factory.

Quiet confidence

Luxury doesn’t need to announce itself.

True craft rarely calls attention to itself. It is felt in the integrity of the material, seen in the precision of the construction, and revealed through details that reward a closer look. Fewer, better things—never made in haste.

Connection

Rooted in Big Sky—where ruggedness and sophistication sit together, and simplicity reveals the greatest luxury.

Craftsmanship

The opportunity

Start narrow.Build a world.

bobbn enters through a credible, concentrated wedge: private mountain clubs where golf, hospitality, gifting, and belonging naturally converge.

From an intentionally discreet founding account, the same product language can travel into destination pro shops, member drops, collaborations, and adjacent categories.

04

The first circle

At home from first tee to fireside.

The Founders Edition is being shaped for an esteemed private mountain club. The name stays quiet for now; the standard it sets does not.
