Ecco Golf and Rick Shiels Collab on Special Edition Biom C4 Drop

Global footwear pioneers, ECCO GOLF, and the world’s biggest golf YouTuber, Rick Shiels, have dropped a special ‘RICK SHIELS’ EDITION BIOM C4, with Rick Shiels himself collaborating with ECCO Golf’s design team to create the model. 

Limited to just 500 pairs, the Rick Shiels edition of ECCO GOLF’s best-selling BIOM C4 captures the ECCO ambassador’s personality and style, without losing any of the unwavering comfort or performance properties of the original design.

Ecco Golf x Rick Shiels: Modern style with sporty comfort

Inspired by the colour palette for his popular golf YouTube channel and branding, this contemporary, sneaker-style hybrid shoe comes in white with red and black accents, and the design also incorporates Shiels’ logo on the heel and tongue. 

With its breathable comfort and innovative performance, this limited-edition shoe has the same functionality as the regular BIOM C4, which Shiels lauds as his favourite 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 that the company makes – it was absolutely mind-blowing. I can’t wait to see my design come to life, and to be able to get the shoes out on the golf course!”

The technologies in the Ecco Biom C4 golf shoe

Shiels’ stylistic elements of the shoe are complemented by some of ECCO’s world renowned performance technologies, including 360-degree breathability and waterproofing provided by a GORE-TEX SURROUND construction, which is combined with the ECCO EXHAUST GRID that enables air ventilation towards the sole of the foot. 

Crafted from ECCO Performance Leather and a new, super-stretchy mesh sock, this hybrid is set on the progressive ECCO MTN GRIP outsole and is powered by BIOM® NATURAL MOTION® Technology. The limited edition golf shoe is available in men’s sizes: 39-48.
