Must read

The latest drop from the creative minds at FootJoy is a joint collaboration with Todd Snyder, the American menswear designer whose golf capsules (limited product drops around special collections) have become staples for the elevated dresser, features two limited edition golf shoes in a fresh, bright icy aqua colour way.

The FJ x Todd Snyder launch just in time for the PGA is a new Premiere Series collection called “Mint Julep”.  This limited-edition collection features elevated patent leather accents and a fresh mint outsole inspired by the cocktail of choice at the Kentucky Derby.

Available in both Wilcox and Field models, the “Mint Julep” Premiere Series will stand out as the preferred shoe of FJ athletes at the 2024 PGA Championship at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky. The Premiere Series continues to be the leading classic shoe franchise in golf and the overwhelming #1 shoe on the PGA Tour, worn by the likes of Max Homa, Will Zalatoris, Justin Thomas, Adam Scott, Matt Wallace and many more.

“We’re really excited about this latest collaboration with FootJoy. We’ve taken design details like the broguing on a bespoke shoe and inspirations from the iconic Derby and combined them with state-of-the-art technology and modern style.” said Todd Snyder.

“Because you can’t always be the best player in your foursome … but wearing these, you can certainly be the most stylish.” The “Mint Julep” Premiere Series collection uses hand-selected, premium full grain leather, offering unparalleled quality craftsmanship with the finest details. While beautiful in design, this collection is packed with performance innovation including the popular and reliable VersaTrax+ outsole and comfort features like an Ortholite® EcoPlush FitBed®.

“It’s been a pleasure to partner with Todd and his team over the last several years, combining his fresh take on men’s fashion with the modern classic styling of Premiere Series,” said Chris Tobias, Vice President, FJ Footwear. “With a combination of high fashion, superior comfort and
golf-specific performance innovation, these shoes are made for players with a discerning sense of style.”

The FJ x Todd Snyder collection is now available, while supplies last via select FJ retailers and at footjoy.ie
