\n\tSo when the brand dropped a new<\/a> collection with the Grateful Dead<\/a>, we weren\u2019t even a little surprised that it turned out cool as hell; the kind of launch you can wear from 18 holes straight into a backyard jam session with your fellow Deadheads.<\/p>\n \n\tReleased Dec. 5, 2025, the Malbon x Grateful Dead<\/a> collection kicks off a six-part series between the two. The collection includes green retro bucket hats, long sleeves embossed with Grateful Dead<\/a> iconography (complete with premium chest patches), and even co-branded golf bags for fans committed to repping the band across all eighteen.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cI went to my first Dead show as a teenager. We drove up from Virginia Beach to DC, piling into my brother\u2019s VW bus, and I experienced RFK Stadium for the first time. That show changed everything for me. I\u2019m forever grateful for the Dead and beyond honored to work on this project,\u201d said Stephen Malbon, Co-Founder of Malbon, in a release.<\/p>\n \t\t\t<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\tGrateful Dead Range Sweatshirt\t\t<\/p>\n \n\t\tAvailable in multiple size options.\t<\/p>\n \n\tBut the best part isn\u2019t even the quality of the products, which is what Malbon\u2019s been nailing for years. It\u2019s the balance. The line threads that very tight needle between subtle and psychedelic. Dead collabs<\/a> are everywhere \u2014 especially this year for the band\u2019s 60th \u2014 but most fall flat: either too grungy to wear without a festival wristband, or so sanitized you can barely tell it\u2019s Deadhead merch<\/a>. This one? Malbon actually gets it right. Yes, we\u2019re calling it a hole-in-one, and yes, we accept the consequences with that pun.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cDrop 1 features artist Daniel Herwitt, whose work lives between the everyday and the surreal. His layered cartoon expressions, obsessive shading, and focus on impermanent, discarded objects create a dense, contradictory universe that sets the tone for the ongoing series,\u201d Malbon stated in a release.<\/p>\n \t\t\t<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\tGrateful Dead Tee Pack\t\t<\/p>\n \n\t\tAvailable in one color.\t<\/p>\n \n\tThe collection has pieces for both men and women, and prices start at $38. Deadheads tend to grab these drops quickly, so we wouldn\u2019t wait too long to make a purchase \u2014 especially with holiday shoppers in full panic mode right now.<\/p>\n \n\tWhether you\u2019re a \u201cTruckin\u2019\u201d loyalist, a \u201cTouch of Grey\u201d person, or you just like looking good while holding a seven-iron, now\u2019s the moment to grab the Grateful Dead x Malbon collab<\/a>.
