Ecco Golf and Rick Shiels, the British YouTuber and golf pro best known for his YouTube channel, Rick Shiels Golf, collaborated on the special edition Biom C4. Limited to 500 pairs, the Biom C4 will be available exclusively at us.ecco.com/golf on April 26.
Available in men’s sizes 39 to 48 EU (5 to 14.5 U.S.), the color palette was inspired by the colors of Shiels Golf’s YouTube channel and branding. The sneaker-style hybrid shoe comes in white with red and black accents and incorporates the Shiels logo on the heel and tongue. The limited-edition shoe offers the same functionality as the original Biom C4, which Shiels lauds as “his favorite style from the current Ecco Golf collection.”
“I’m thrilled to have joined forces with the Ecco Golf design team to create this special edition version of the Biom C4,” commented Shiels. “The design really reflects my individual style and passions, and I couldn’t have asked for a better model in which to showcase those aspects of my personality.
“I was lucky enough to visit Ecco Golf HQ in Denmark earlier this year and witness first-hand everything that goes into designing and crafting every pair of shoes the company makes – it was absolutely mind-blowing. I can’t wait to see the launch of this collaboration and to be able to get the shoes out on the golf course,” concluded Shiels.
The Biom C4 combinesShiels’ stylistic elements with Ecco’s performance technologies, including 360-degree breathability and waterproofing provided by a Gore-Tex Surround construction, combined with the Ecco Exhaust Grid that enables air ventilation towards the sole. Crafted from Ecco Performance Leather and a new, stretch mesh sock, the hybrid is set on the Ecco Mtn Grip outsole and powered by Biom Natural Motion Technology.
Ecco makes all its golf shoes in company-owned factories that bond the upper and outsole unit with Fluidform technology, creating a one-piece shoe without glue or stitching. The benefits include flexibility, durability and ightweight construction.
Ecco golf shoes are worn in competition worldwide by Henrik Stenson, Thomas Bjørn, Erik van Rooyen, Lydia Ko, Alison Lee, Nanna Koerstz Madsen, Freddy Schott, and Esther Henseleit, among others.
