The Aimé Leon Dore x FootJoy collaboration returns for Spring/Summer 2026, expanding beyond footwear into a full lifestyle capsule rooted in golf heritage. Building on their initial partnership, the collection reintroduces FootJoy’s Premiere Series silhouettes alongside apparel pieces that translate traditional golf uniforms into everyday wear. The footwear retains its classic construction, using premium leather uppers and structured profiles, while Aimé Leon Dore applies its signature color palettes and detailing to shift the look toward lifestyle styling.
The apparel extends this direction through tailored outerwear, knit polos, and relaxed trousers designed to move between the course and urban settings. The collection is presented through a lookbook that integrates golf environments with streetwear styling, positioning the pieces within a broader cultural context rather than performance alone.
