Here is the latest in golf course and lifestyle notes.
Gear
▪️To celebrate the final two major championships of the year — the U.S. Open and Open Championship — Paynter Golf debuts its Clubhouse Collection of limited edition golf shoes that are only available through DICK’S Sporting Goods and Golf Galaxy. The Eighty Seven SC model is designed with special colorways and features that pay homage to the respective Opens at Oakmont Country Club and Royal Portrush.
And when Paynter Golf says limited, it means limited. Based off the respective Open anniversaries there are only 125 U.S. Open and 148 Open Championship pairs. The shoes are available in-store and online at Dicks.com and through Golf Galaxy locations and online at GolfGalaxy.com.
▪️Unless you’re a big fan of Dunning apparel, this might not have registered on the radar. But the new Dunning x Fury Athletix collaboration is appealing from a performance headwear perspective. Fury Athletix, founded in 2021, has quickly made a name for itself with its high-performance headwear construction. It’s akin to a sporty Mustang will garner plenty of looks, but what’s under the hood is what will make it perform. This co-branded collection features the Tee-It-Up ($56), a structured, six-panel hat featuring its signature golf ball and tee perforations, and the All-In ($56), a semi-structured, machine-washable hat with a flexible bill. The initial summer offering consists of four Tee-It-Up colorways and three All-In colors.
▪️In these chaotic times, a little simplicity is not a bad thing. MNML Golf‘s new M Comp bag is as efficiently as a golf bag comes. Made 100% from recycled ocean waste, the M Comp weighs just 4.25 pounds and features 100% magnetic closures for seamless access to pockets, a built-in filming pocket for capturing swing footage and spacious compartments for valuables, rain gear, gloves and balls. The bag is available in three colorways — black, white and navy — and retails for $299.
