Exclusive collection pairs the award-winning Eighty Seven SC golf shoe with complementary apparel following U.S. Open week
PORTLAND, Ore. and NEW YORK — Fresh off the excitement of U.S. Open week, Sugarloaf Social Club, one of golf’s most influential lifestyle brands, and PAYNTR Golf, the performance golf footwear brand redefining innovation on the course, today announced a limited-edition collaboration featuring a special version of the acclaimed PAYNTR Golf Eighty Seven SC alongside an exclusive apparel collection.
Designed to capture the spirit and spectacle of championship golf’s most celebrated month, the collaboration merges Sugarloaf Social Club’s unmistakable creative vision with PAYNTR Golf’s performance-first engineering. The result is a collection equally at home walking the fairways of a major championship venue or a favorite local course.
At the heart of the collaboration is the special-edition Sugarloaf Social Club X PAYNTR Golf Eighty Seven SC, distinguished by a unique color palette inspired by the traditions of championship golf while embracing Sugarloaf Social Club’s modern aesthetic. Bold yet refined, the design blends creative tones with thoughtful detailing that celebrates the game’s most iconic events, delivering a shoe that stands out without sacrificing performance.
“PAYNTR has been a breath of fresh air to the golf shoe scene, and I have been following their creative moves since day one,” said Ian Gilley, Founder of Sugarloaf Social Club. “When the chance to create a shoe with their team went from dream to reality, I knew exactly what I wanted them to look like – featuring Sugarloaf’s summer colors of bean red and lake blue, accenting a clean white upper with fun, obvious, subtle and secret details strewn about. The result was a shoe that perfectly represented our brand – classic but with small pops of joy.”
Built on PAYNTR Golf’s award-winning Eighty Seven SC silhouette, this performance golf shoe is engineered for golfers seeking stability, comfort, traction and propulsion throughout the swing as well as unmistakable style through Sugarloaf Social Club’s creative lens. Key performance features include:
- Waterproof and breathable Clarino microfiber performance upper
- TPU-injected stability heel clip
- Ariaprene tongue booty comfort package
- PMX NITRO+ injected 3D molded footbed
- Performance foam filler
- Full-length directional carbon fiber propulsion plate by Carbitex
- Lightweight injected performance TPU outsole
- TOUR Flex Pro cleats by Soft Spikes
“Collaborations work best when they bring together authentic voices that share a passion for the game,” said Mike Forsey, Co-Founder and President of PAYNTR Golf. “Sugarloaf Social Club has cultivated one of golf’s most unique communities, and this collection perfectly balances performance innovation with timeless style for passionate golfers.”
The footwear launch is complemented by a curated apparel collection from Sugarloaf Social Club, designed to seamlessly pair with the shoe’s distinctive aesthetic and deliver a complete look inspired by golf’s grandest stages.
“To round it out, we designed a slide and some apparel pieces that really are meant to work for that ideal June golf day, from a cool morning full loop to an afternoon on the beach, finished off with a lobster roll at the shack,” added Gilley.
The Sugarloaf Social Club x PAYNTR Golf x collection is available now in limited quantities through sugarloafsocialclub.com and payntrgolf.com.
