adidas Golf and Skateboarding Team Up for ‘Rolling Links’ Collection

by

As a skater and golf enthusiast with a penchant for fashion, I find the adidas Rolling Links collection to be nothing short of revolutionary. Growing up in the skate scene, I’ve always admired the individuality and self-expression that skating embodies, much like golf. The fusion of these two worlds is not only unexpected but also perfectly in tune with the changing landscape of both sports.

After the Covid pandemic, golf has gained popularity among both amateur and professional skaters looking for a change from their high-octane activities. Despite the sports being quite distinct culturally, it becomes clearer why this trend is happening when you realize that they are individual pursuits that offer an authentic platform to showcase one’s identity through personal style. adidas’s latest Rolling Links collection, a joint effort between their golf and skate departments, reflects this idea.

In Palm Springs, we bring together Adidas’ pro skaters such as Nora Vasconcellos, Kader Sylla, Jack Fardell, and Zach Saraceno. Their collection offers laid-back styles in a color palette of green, white, and black, featuring the iconic Trefoil logo. Additionally, the footwear team at Adidas Golf, led by senior designer June Cate (a former pro skater), contributes two collaborative models to the mix.

Key features of the versatile collection encompass:

In a conversation, Adam Brown, who is the senior brand director at adidas skateboarding, expressed that this form of partnership between adidas and golf fits perfectly. He pointed out that both sports share many similarities, which makes such collaboration sensible. Excitedly, he also mentioned their anticipation to collaborate with the adidas golf team on a distinctive project for the golf course, which will carry a skateboarding influence.

Remember to visit adidas.com, the adidas app, or the CONFIRMED store on October 4 as that’s when the new collection will be released.
