New hair & boots coming to the Evian

Words: Tim Southwell Photography: Michelle Wie

Michelle Wie has finally come over to the Punk-side. As she heads into the Evian Championship, she's sporting a fancy new X-Ray Specs inspired hair-do and a pair of pink basketball inspired high-top Nike golf shoes

"God save the Queen" (Well, she is getting on a bit)

Self-professed sneaker head Michelle will shimmy onto the first tee today sporting a punk-inspired hair do and wearing in the all-new (and not yet available to us nerks, we'll have to wait until 2016) Nike Blazers, a classic basketball silhouette for the brand that has turned into a favorite lifestyle shoe.

The official line says the shoe boasts a performance outsole built for traction on the golf course, with a pink upper, camouflage swoosh and a white outsole. We just think she looks the absolute business on the golf course.

"The fascist regime"

“Michelle asked us to create a high-top golf shoe,” said Joël Greenspan, footwear designer for Nike Golf. “She wanted more support throughout her swing and greater connection to the ground. She also wanted a shoe that would reflect her distinct sense of style on and off the course. The Women’s Nike Blazer is a dynamic take on a classic silhouette, re-engineered and re-materialized to reflect Michelle’s elite level of play.”

"They've made you a moron!" (Not you, Michelle obvs!)

Fancy! Here are a couple more pics of the new boots. Not able to bring you the panties at this stage (that's enough punk references! - Ed). Soz.

"Potential sex-bomb!"

Oh, almost forgot, Michelle had something to say about all this...

“The Blazer is a versatile, stylish and high-performance shoe,” Wie said. “The high-top collar is so functional for me, providing the support I need through the impact of my swing. I love the fact that I can bring the iconic retro hoops look to the golf course.”
