It’s well known that Cole Haan always delivers quality and craftsmanship. This characteristic has made the brand notorious for both everyday sneakers and dress shoes. Now, the heritage brand is taking its expertise into its newest collaboration, partnering with PXG (Parsons Extreme Golf). Releasing a new limited-edition golf collection, both American brands bring their craftsmanship and quality to the collection that fuses modern performance with traditional design. “Our partnership with PXG reflects Cole Haan’s belief that innovation and craftsmanship should move in sync,” said Scott Patt, Chief Creative Officer, Cole Haan. “By merging our comfort technology with PXG’s exacting eye for design and performance, we’ve created a collection to meet the demands of today’s golfer.” The footwear collection released features five styles designed for performance, stability, and comfort for every type of golfer.

Arriving in three men’s styles, the Cole Haan and PXG have fused innovation with all of the needs of a golfer. The GrandPro Crossover Golf shoe features full-grain leather uppers, GRANDFØAM cushioning, and spikeless rubber traction, offering flexibility that lets you go from the fairway to the clubhouse with ease. With a reinterpretation of Cole Haan’s iconic Oxford, the OriginalGrand Tour Golf shoe features waterproof leather uppers, GrandFØAM cushioning, and a removable spiked TPU outsole for more traction and control. Rounding out the offerings is the ZEROGRAND Overtake Golf shoe. This design features a water-resistant mesh upper and FlowerFoam cushioning for responsive comfort, while the spikeless outsole provides flexibility and grip for on and off the green.
As Krissie Millan, Chief Marketing Officer for Cole Haan, mentions, “This collaboration celebrates that mindset through design that’s functional, refined, and unmistakably modern.” All three men’s shoes are available via PXG retail stores, select partners, and PXG.com, and retail from $190 to $300.

What sailors in the Race to Mackinac, America’s oldest freshwater race, wear on their wrists
The race from Chicago to Mackinac Island is a days-long battle against the Great Lakes. In that kind of contest, you need a watch as tough as the job.
Boat, Sailboat, Transportation

The Race to Mackinac has been run since 1898, when five boats set out from Chicago. Today it covers 333 statute miles up Lake Michigan, crosses into Lake Huron at the Straits of Mackinac, and finishes off Mackinac Island — and it is not an easy voyage. It is also not a gentle one. Sustained gales flattened big chunks of the fleet in 1911, 1937, and 1970, and after a deadly storm in 2011, the Mac's reputation for danger stopped being theoretical. The fastest boats finish absurdly quickly now, with an all-time record of 18 hours and 50 minutes set back in 1998, but most crews are out there for two or three nights. The sailors alternate, sleeping in shifts of four hours each, until they (hopefully) make land.

It might seem tough to imagine doing that once — now, try doing it two dozen more. For those who make the journey at least 25 times, the prize is entry into the Island Goats Sailing Society, founded in 1959 and now several hundred strong. Rack up 25 Chicago Macs and 25 from Port Huron, and you become a Double Goat. The nickname, as the story goes, comes from the aroma a crew carries after days at sea with no shower. All things considered, this is a tough, electric, occasionally dangerous race. The Chicago Yacht Club hosts the race annually in mid-July, and that's exactly where I went to look at watches.

Fashion, Clothing, Glove

‘Tis the season for beach weekends, cookouts, and glorious rounds of golf. If your wardrobe for the links could use a refresh, Fabletics just launched its second collaboration with Malbon. Inspired by the ocean, the collection features green hues and marine motifs. It’s a his-and-hers collection, with polos and trousers alongside dresses and leggings—garments that look as dapper on the greens as they do in the clubhouse dining room.

The partnership unites two companies with reputations as disruptors in the sports apparel space. Founded in 2017, Malbon has built a loyal following by blending golf apparel with streetwear, fashion, and art. The company has flagship stores in Los Angeles and New York City in addition to a large digital presence.
