After successfully tracking down a host of awesome vintage golf hats, I figured it’s time to show off a little more vintage golf gear.
Vintage golf bags, anyone?
With heritage brands like Penfold and Jones still around and newer names like Stitch and Mackenzie putting out vintage-inspired golf bags, it’s only right that I really sift through the archives to find some real vintage stuff.
Maybe you’ve got one in your garage. Perhaps you’re on the hunt for that special bag you had as a kid. Either way, eBay is a treasure trove of vintage golf gear for buyers and sellers.
Who knows? Maybe that ancient bag you’ve held on to for so long is finally worth some cash.
Vintage PING Karsten Sunday Bag
Oh, man, is this thing cool! This vintage nylon PING Sunday bag is in excellent shape. Who wouldn’t feel like a boss walking down the fairway with this on their shoulder?
Vintage Disney Golf Bag
Isn’t she a beauty? This vintage Belding bag features sweet pink leather accents and a fun Minnie Mouse embroidery on the front.
This leather lady seems to be in fairly good condition! What an absolute score.
Vintage adidas Sunday Bag
This vintage adidas Sunday bag is a must-have. The canvas is in very good condition and it even includes the rain hood! The Brand with Three Stripes has stopped making golf bags but this has me thinking that they need to start again!
Vintage Belding Gatorade Golf Bag
Belding has some sweet vintage bags on the market. This is probably one of my favorites. This bright green and orange bag speaks for itself.
Vintage TaylorMade Staff Bag
Who doesn’t love the old TI Bubble 2 from TaylorMade? This sexy copper staff bag would look good in any office (or on any golf cart).
Tips and Tricks for Vintage Hunting
- Pay attention to seller feedback. If a seller is consistently receiving bad reviews, it’s probably not a good idea to buy from them.
- If a deal seems too good to be true, it probably is. Even vintage stuff can be faked.
- Condition is very important. A bag that is 20, 30 or even 40 years old might make a good office decoration but it may fall apart with any real use.
- Don’t know if you’re getting a good deal? Use the “Sold Items” filter to see what similar pieces are selling for.
- Have fun! At the end of the day, it’s just fun to find a few things that bring back fond memories or remind you of time gone by.
What’s Next?
eBay is full of vintage golf gear. Did any of the bags I chose catch your eye? If not, you can browse eBay’s ever-growing selection of vintage golf bags here.

Nah, you don’t know good vintage bags if you aren’t catching the Daiwa bags made by Coach. Whether its the full leather or the beautiful canvas and leather bags they made, finding one in good shape (I have 2 that were still in original box and dust bag) is amazing. They have some really unique needle point like designs with imagery of golfers on the course and scenery.
