In celebration of festive summer rounds and lazy beach days spent with friends and family, Linksoul and OluKai, two breezy, coastal athletic brands, have launched a collaborative series of three shoes, one leather golf sneaker, one golf sandal, and one slip-on. Each shoe works on or off the course, and embodies the joyful, sporty spirit of the two waterside brands, with OluKai being based in Hawaii and Linksoul in California. The shoes maintain a neutral palette of navy, black, crisp white, and light gray, but are packed with detailing and natural, high-quality materials with a price tag ranging from $100 for the sandal to $150 for the leather sneaker.

Perhaps the most versatile for everyday golfers, the Wai‘alae Leather Golf Shoe is spikeless and waterproof, meaning it can hold up whether you’re playing a serious tournament or casual game with friends. The palm motif along the upper mimics drawing in the sands, an ode to the look and feel of airy Linksoul designs and cushiony OluKai soles.

The second shoe on offer is the Ulele Men’s Golf Sandals, a sporty flip flop with tropical accents you may never want to take off, allowing feet to breathe while still offering a level of sole support. While it’s ideal for walking, beaching, boating, and road-tripping, it can also work for simulated or night golf, or unwinding at the driving range.

The final shoe of the collaboration is the Wai‘alae Canvas Slip-On which can be dressed up for post-round dinner and drinks. The insole can be removed and washed to maintain freshness and extend wear, and the navy hue is imbued with a palm tree print for a touch of island vibes, so you can look, and feel, relaxed even while taking your game and competition incredibly serious.
