The gear dataset
Every product in our catalogue as structured, machine-readable data — specs, approximate pricing in three currencies, verified retailer availability, sourced tour usage and links to our coverage. Free to use with attribution, served as open JSON.
What's inside
- 418 products across 137 brands and 14 categories — the full catalogue, including the tour gear behind our WITB pages.
- Structured specs — machine-queryable snake_case key/values (magnification, slope_toggle, construction, …) on 418 products, extracted from the same verified copy as the prose bullets.
- Approximate retail pricing in GBP, USD and AUD — editorial price bands, not live retailer quotes.
- Verified retailer availability — which retailers stock each product today, per the same link-verification that gates our own buy buttons.
- Sourced tour usage — 93products carry the pros verified to game them, with a link to each player's full, dated bag.
- Price history — recorded from 2026-08-02, served per product. The log grows daily; early days, deep later.

Licence & attribution
The dataset is free to use under CC BY 4.0: cite ifrothgolf and link to this site or to the record's own url field (every record carries its canonical product page). No key, no rate card, CORS open. If you build something with it, we'd genuinely like to see it — tell us.
Provenance, plainly: every field is a straight projection of the hand-verified data behind the pages you can read on this site — the catalogue, the sourced WITB bags and our news desk. Nothing in the dataset is scraped or invented, and prices are labelled approximate because that's what they are.
