After debuting its Qi35 line earlier this year—already in play by the likes of Nelly Korda and Collin Morikawa—TaylorMade is adding a bold twist. Enter the Designer Series, a trio of limited-run drivers that just might be the brand’s most striking yet.

The lineup includes a stealthy all-black version (always a safe bet), but the true standouts are the new satin gold and platinum finishes. From address, both offer a sleek, surprisingly classic look—attention-grabbing without veering into overly flashy territory thanks to the muted satin sheen. Flip them over and the soles turn up the contrast, blending metallic and matte elements with black accents. Branding stays in line with the standard Qi35 aesthetic.

Each club comes with a premium black headcover, finished with metallic Qi35 branding in gold or platinum. “The cool thing about Designer Series is that we can only do this in limited quantities, and that allows us to do something outside the norm,” said Robert Nunez, a product designer at TaylorMade. “Whether it’s how paints and pigments are sourced, how they’re applied, or drawing inspiration from different places like aeronautics or the automobile industry, it’s a continual learning and evolution process.”

The TaylorMade Designer Series Qi35 drivers are available now in both standard and Max heads for $650 USD.
