Phil Mickelson Wears Travis Scott x Air Jordan Golf Shoes

Phil Mickelson made sneaker history with his Air Jordan golf shoes at the 2023 U.S. Open.

The golf world has never been more polarizing. The recent drama involving the PGA Tour and LIV has left many athletes and fans divided. As luck would have it, the 2023 U.S. Open has taken place over the past few days in Los Angeles, California.

One of the leading figures in the contentious debate is Phil Michelson. Regardless of your position on the divide, every fan can get behind some great golf shoes. However, Mickelson's Air Jordan shoes are more than great; they immediately catapult him into sneaker history.

"Lefty" wore a pair of Fragment x Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Low sneakers that had been customized into golf shoes. Below is a detailed look at the rare golf shoes and what fans must know about their importance.

The Fragment x Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Low was released on August 13, 2021, for $150 in adult sizes. The lifestyle sneakers sold out almost immediately and now have an average resale price of $1,451 on StockX.

The sneakers were designed in collaboration with Japanese brand Fragment, rapper Travis Scott, and Jordan Brand. The upper features smooth white leather contrasted with black and royal blue leather overlays. Lastly, the signature reverse Swoosh logo and yellowed soles complete the look for the classic silhouette.

If Mickelson's kicks were not already exclusive enough, turning them into golf shoes only heightens the hype surrounding the model. While Jordan Brand and Scott do have golf and tennis shoes in the works, there is no chance that Mickelson's style will get released. 

The 2023 U.S. Open concludes later today, but history has already been made. Love him or hate him, you cannot ignore Mickelson's impact on the sport and its culture. Stay tuned to FanNation Kicks for all your shoe news.
