Grenson x Sounder
limited-edition handmade leather golf shoe
Sounder, the new golf brand from the founders of Folk and Urban Golf, has announced an exclusive collaboration with us to produce a limited-edition handmade leather golf shoe.
The Sounder x Grenson Golf Shoes, can now be pre-ordered for delivery in February 2022. We will make them skin to box in our Grenson Factory in Northamptonshire and are based on our 201 G-Fit last which has been specially crafted for maximum comfort. They also have pre-drilled screw-in cleats providing comfort and stability as well as a classic look.
The inside of the golf shoe has been fully lined with naturally wicking uncoated beige calf leather and the outer has also been made from white Italian calf leather with an off-white suede quarter and iconic Sounder star.
Like all Sounder products, the shoes have been tried and tested on the course by the brand’s golf-mad founders.
Sounder is a golf brand for people who love the game, but hate the nonsense associated with it. Since launching during lockdown last year, Sounder clothes, golf balls and accessories have developed a cult following among golf’s cooler crowd.
The Sounder x Grenson Golf Shoes will be shipped in a Grenson shoe box with a unique Sounder shoe bag made from offcuts of garment-dyed cotton used in the brand’s clothing collection. The shoes are priced at £495.00 and will be available in half sizes from size 8 to 13. Pre-orders placed now will be shipped in February 2022.

Cathal McAteer, co-founder and creative director of Sounder, said:
We always wanted to make a golf shoe, and when we started developing a prototype I knew that we wanted to work with a company that shares our values of craftsmanship and sustainability. We’re really proud that these shoes are as comfortable to wear as they are beautiful to look at – we can’t wait for golfers to experience them.
Sounder co-founder and former PGA professional James Day added:
I’ve tried every single leather-soled shoe on the market – and these are simply the best. After years playing in trainer-style golf shoes, I’m more convinced than ever that the solid feel you get from a classic shoe is key to hitting committed golf shots.
Speaking on the launch, Tim Little, CEO and Creative Director at Grenson UK said:
