Haymaker was a sportswear label that was a division of the David Crystal company. The chairman of the board at David Crystal was Vin Draddy, who was himself an avid golfer and sportsman.

The Haymaker label is most often found on the company’s famous polo shirts and dresses, and the item is often decorated with a crocodile on the chest. This is because of the company’s association with Lacoste, the French maker of the crocodile shirt.
