TRUE linkswear Brings Back Iconic Dead Golfer for Another October

October 19, 2026

TRUE’s annual Dead Golfer collection returns with a fresh lineup of footwear, apparel, and accessories.

TACOMA, Wash. – TRUE linkswear (TRUE), creators of ultra-comfortable, modern golf footwear for walking on the course and off, is bringing back one of its most recognizable and beloved icons with its latest Dead Golfer collection. Returning each October, the annual collection has become a TRUE tradition, giving golfers a reason to celebrate their obsession with the game – even while the season starts to wind down.

Inspired by TRUE’s cult-favorite skeleton golfer, the new collection puts a fresh spin on the Dead Golfer across a range of footwear, apparel, and accessories. The capsule collection includes three shoe models: an all-black Knit Four, classic OG3 Pro, and a street-styled Antigravity Leather, a new collaboration with New Level Golf, sweatshirts, tees, hats, and clubhead covers – a collaboration with Dormie. Available in a variety of colorways and produced in limited quantities, the collection is designed for golfers who embrace the game, live in it, and keep coming back for more.

More than a seasonal graphic, the Dead Golfer has become part of TRUE’s identity and a favorite among its community. Its laid-back attitude reflects TRUE’s approach to golf: play often, walk wherever you can, have fun and never take the game – or yourself – too seriously. New for the 2025 collection are two new collaborations producing a New Line DG Putter and a Dormie DG headcover.

“The Dead Golfer has taken on a life of its own,” said Jason Moore, Co-Founder and CEO of TRUE linkswear. “What started as a simple sketch became something our community really connected with because it captures the way so many of us feel about golf. You can be frustrated by it, obsessed with it, love it, hate it – and still be back on the first tee the next day. That’s the Dead Golfer. It’s a little gritty, a little irreverent, and ultimately about having fun with the game.”

The latest Dead Golfer collection is available exclusively through TRUE linkswear while supplies last. With limited quantities across the collection, once these Dead Golfers are gone, they’re gone.

Shoe Capsule

The Knit Four Dead Golfer might be the darkest release yet, featuring a black-on-black ominous colorway for the ultimate wardrobe staple. The modern, athletic silhouette offers unmatched flexibility and sock-like comfort, with added durability and stability. Available in Black; Men’s US Half Sizes: 7-12.5, Full sizes: 13-15, MSRP $149.

Available in white with a grey sole, and a discreet Dead Golfer logo on the side; Men’s US Half Sizes: 7-12.5, Full sizes: 13-15, MSRP $199.

The final shoe in the Dead Golfer series is the Antigravity Leather, featuring a street, modern styling in all black with a contrasting thicker white sole. A large Dead Golfer logo is stitched into the side of the shoe with ‘DG Society EST. 2019’ also on the side. The premium top-grain leather upper is paired with a Pebax® midsole and a full-length nylon speedboard for featherlight cushioning, high-energy rebound, and lasting comfort. Available in Black; Men’s US Half Sizes: 7-12.5, Full sizes: 13-15, MSRP $225.

TRUE collaborated with New Level Putter, expanding Dead Golfer. The beautiful blade putter, FS-P1 model, features the motto ‘Enjoy the Walk’ inscribed on the bottom and ‘TRUE’ along the side. A 303 stainless steel putter with a short slant neck, traditional shaping, and a gunmetal finish. The putter will be sold through the New Level Putter website here, MSRP $300.
