What Should You Know About Head Golf?

Head Golf ranks #147 of 215 golf brands on the DORMIED Index for Aug 2026, with a Demand Index score of 0.3, down 33.3% month over month. Its strongest single market is China, where it ranks #73. Head Golf is an Apparel & Footwear brand, founded in 1950, based in Kennelbach, Austria.

HEAD has tried golf before. The Austrian sports equipment group briefly sold clubs in the mid-1990s and killed the line when it turned out to be one of the two divisions bleeding the most money. Three decades later the brand is back in the category through licensing rather than manufacturing, and the split is worth understanding: headgolf.com is the apparel and accessories side, while PowerBilt Holdings signed on in 2025 as exclusive global licensee for HEAD golf hard goods including clubs, balls, bags and gloves. The apparel operation leans on HEAD's ski and tennis credibility, positioning itself as refined ready-to-wear with crochet club covers, vintage henleys and technical shorts rather than performance-first golf kit. It signed Juniper Jang as its first LPGA Tour ambassador. HEAD Sport GmbH traces to 1950, when Howard Head built the first successful aluminium laminate ski in Baltimore, and today runs out of Kennelbach, Austria under CEO Johan Eliasch. The brand equity is real. Whether golfers transfer it from a racket to a polo is the open question.
