It started the way the best things do: two best friends since birth and a game we couldn't put down.
We grew up together in Pittsburgh, the kind of friends who learned to play golf on the same muni, lost the same bets on the same greens, and never stopped talking about the game. Years later, mid-round, we hit on a simple idea: the golf belt hadn't changed in fifty years, and it could be so much better. A magnetic buckle. A marker that lives right where you need it. A belt actually built for golf.
We couldn't shake it. So we did the thing you do when an idea won't let go, we bet on it. We built the first belts, packed up, and moved south to the Lowcountry, where the marsh courses run long and the golf never really stops. Charleston became home, and the garage idea became Dartee.
We're still those two kids from Pittsburgh, just with a better belt and a lot of new friends. Every colorway, every drop, every belt we ship is built by people who love this game as much as you do. That's the whole story, and we're just getting started.
