Tee up in style with these fashionable Shark Tank-approved golf attire picks.
Bad Birdie founder Jason Richardson believes that no one should have to settle for boring golf clothing. The apparel brand was born after Richardson and a friend entered a golf tournament and found themselves disappointed by the lackluster polos to choose from.
“I searched everywhere and the only options were solid, striped and 100 percent unexciting,” says Richardson.
Inspired to bring new life to the game with unique prints and styles, Richardson started Bad Birdie in 2017, running the golf attire business entirely from the inside of his California apartment.

Three years later, Richardson told the story of his brand on Shark Tank, where he received a $300,000 investment in exchange for 20 percent equity from Robert Herjavec.
“I’ve been watching Shark Tank for as long as I can remember, reading the Shark’s books and chewing on their advice, taking the learnings and applying them to the business I started out of my room, the very same business I was about to take in front of those very same Sharks,” says Richardson. “All to say, being on the show was unimaginable.”
Following their Shark Tank success, today Bad Birdie is a Scottsdale, Arizona-based business with 15 employees, who are celebrating the recent grand opening of their first brick and mortar store in Kierland Commons. Promoting the idea that there’s no need to compromise on performance or good vibes, Bad Birdie aims to add extra fun to the game with their offbeat golf clothing.
