Among FootJoy‘s roster of collaborations, its ones with West Coast creative Jon Buscemi always stand out. Now in its fourth year the two have come together once again for The Player’s Shoe, an elevated take on FootJoy’s popular Premiere Series, to honor the prestigious PLAYERS Championship. Like in previous seasons, two models of the Premiere Series are delivered in off-white leather with gold accents, paying homage to the PLAYERS Championship trophy. This time though, the drop is focused on the saddle-style Wilcox and the brand new Field LX, a derby silhouette with a full-length mudguard.

On the Field LX, a shiny white patent leather vamp and mudguard subtly contrast with pebbled off-white leather, while flourishes of gold come through on the metal FJ logos, heel accents and removable spikes. The most noteworthy element might be on the bottoms though, where a rich shade of Kelly green highlights the VersaTrax outsole. The same textures and tones are in play with the Wilcox, only arranged differently. The shoes are treated to patent leather toe caps, saddles and heel overlays, but everything else remains the same. Finally, a special pair of insoles denote the collaborative pairs with “FJ by Jon Buscemi.”

Both pairs will become available on March 12 via FootJoy in limited quantities, and if past years are any indication you’ll need to act fast to secure yours.
