Just when I thought FootJoy’s Premiere Series Marquis couldn’t get any better.
Man, oh man. This is one of the shoes that you bring home to meet your mother.
Aime Leon Dore (ALD) and FootJoy just rekindled their partnership from last year. And the fruits of their collaborative labors are pretty darn sweet.
So sweet, in fact, that I may just call it the “best looking golf shoe of the year” and end the article right here.
But, for those of you whose interest is piqued, let’s dive in a bit.
If you’re reading this, you probably don’t know much about ALD. I wouldn’t call (you) the MyGolfSpy audience old, but I also certainly wouldn’t call them “trendy”. ALD is a lifestyle brand based in NYC, and has been quietly putting out fantastic stuff (including great golf stuff) for a while.
As you surmised from the intro, they teamed up with FootJoy last year for an exclusive shoe. That pair was sick.
But the two pairs of FootJoy Premiere Series Marquis that they cooked up this year? They’re special. Premium leather. Gator detailing. Minimal branding.
Quiet luxury, personified.
They’re going to go fast. Don’t sleep on this one.
