With the third men’s major of the season under way, Nike has released its limited edition golf shoes honoring the 124th U.S. Open being held June 13–16 at Pinehurst No. 2. Celebrating the blue skies of North Carolina, the heavily cobalt-accented three-sneaker drop feels breezy, airy and summery. They also have nods to the (joyful!) challenges and competition found at the U.S. Open through typography reading with the terms “embrace” and “accept” placed throughout the design. The shoes come in unisex sizing, so men and women sneakerheads alike can pick up a pair. The drop sees three iconic styles given the celebratory treatment: the Air Zoom Victory Tour 3 NRG, the Air Pegasus ’89 G NRG and the Air Zoom Infinity Tour NRG. We’ve broken the differences down for you in terms of look and feel so you can figure out which collector’s edition is right for you.
For the lovers of spikes, the Air Zoom Victory Tour 3 NRG offers plenty of traction and a breathable, crisp white upper to support and cool the feet, so you can focus on your stance. Soft, comfortable terry cloth details add to the calming vibe.
If it’s waterproof capabilities you need, the Air Pegasus ’89 G NRG has a trendy, distressed vibe with a leading charcoal color way in a soft terry cloth combined with a subtle indigo design that provides a nod to Pinehurst and the Carolinas.
And finally, the Air Zoom Infinity Tour NRG is notable for its bright turquoise laces that pack a sartorial punch, great for competition that’s friendly or otherwise. Signature Nike technical details like the slightly glossy geometric mesh upper add to the powerful dual-chromatic look joined with soft metallic spikes.
The shoes are available for sale now, and are still mostly available in all sizes, so you can accept and embrace one or all three.
