Jordan Brand, the Nike-owned imprint named after legendary basketball player Michael Jordan, has growing plans in the game of golf.

While the NBA icon's love of golf has led to countless Jordan-branded golf releases over the last few years, 2026 saw Jordan brand make its splashiest move into the game yet, launching a new fashion-forward golf apparel collection while inking a deal for Tony Finau to become the brand's new headline ambassador on tour.

Finau wears the sneaker-styled Air Jordan 1 Low G to play most of his golf, and until now the brand has lacked a reputable performance golf shoe to call its own (the pretty ugly Jordan Air Rev notwithstanding). However that looks set to change soon, as what appeared to be a new Jordan golf shoe hit the course last week at The CJ Cup Byron Nelson on the feet not of Finau, but one Scottie Scheffler.

Details on the new shoes are few and far between, and as you can see for yourself the shoes themselves are branding free, indicating they're still very much in the prototype phase. 

However Scheffler's decision to wear Jordan-branded socks with the shoes has led many to naturally assume these are the next major performance release to come from the brand. They also appear to be spiked, and have a distinctly basketball shoe-like silhouette.

Scheffler will almost certainly continue to wear his trusted Nike Victory Pro 4s on tour for the forseeable future, but it's certainly interesting to see Nike's roster of athletes crossing over between sub-brands in such a way. We'll keep you updated on any new details as they emerge.
