Cameron Young is generally the kind of golfer who lets his play do most of the talking out on the course.

As such, it caught more than a few by surprise that Young stepped out in some fashion-forward footwear over the weekend at the Cadillac Championship, taking to the tee at Trump Doral in FootJoy’s much sought-after shoe collaboration with New York fashion label Aimé Leon Dore.
The latest in a growing line of collaborations from the streetwear imprint and FootJoy, the shoes once again revise the classic silhouette of the Premiere Series Marquis shoe with additional luxury touches, replacing the standard full-grain leather upper with a croc skin-style embossed pattern in a shiny black patent finish.
