I set out on a Mission.
You see, that pic of me in the blindfold up there - that's me on my first manufacturing visit to Java, Indonesia.
Oh Hi, I'm Mike by the way.
Here’s the thing: for all the investment, innovation, and change happening in golf, the golf glove felt stuck. Still cheap. Still crusty. Still sweating through by the ninth hole.
Everyone's sick of it. Tired of the excuses and tired of tossing out gloves every few rounds.
So in early 2022, I set my sights on building something better - gloves that actually solve real problems golfers face.
Moisture. Durability. Performance. Feel. No compromises.
2022-2023 🌏
After months of planning, I packed my bag, hopped on a plane and embarked on a trip around the world (literally).
From Korea to Indonesia, Dubai to Istanbul to Porto – I explored the golf glove underworld and learned at the feet of its masters.
And after months of late nights, delayed flights, and an appropriate sampling of local liquors -
…the dream of a golf glove revolution began to take shape.
Reflecting back, my travels taught me that an entrepreneurial spirit has the power to connect people no matter the distance.
The products you see here aren’t just one guy’s crazy ideas - they’re the result of a network of international partners, generations of master glove-makers, and a relentless pursuit to build something better.
But the truth is, dadafunk is just getting started - and we can’t do it without people like you.
Every order. Every word-of-mouth. Every glove out there on the course means the world to us.
If you believe in what we’re building, pick up a glove, join the movement, and be part of this story.
Let’s change the game together.
