As with the Masters, the PGA Championship and the U.S. Open, golf companies have made custom gear and accessories for the 2019 Open Championship at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland.

Enjoy the collection of gear below from around the world of social media.

Bettinardi’s bushel of products

In addition to creating a special “148th Royal Portrush Limited Edition Putter” for the R&A, of which only 19 were made and sold, Bettinardi also made a number of different products for its customers. The Bettinardi-Portrush collection features metalwood headcovers, putter headcovers, ball markers and divot repair tools.

Dancing Barrels

Another putter maker, Scotty Cameron, made special putter covers for The Open. These feature “Dancing Barrels,” and stitched inside the barrels are the years in which Open champions won using a Scotty Cameron putter.

TaylorMade’s ode to Northern Ireland

This week, TaylorMade staffers will use staff bags with a number of tributes to Northern Ireland’s history and landscape, including the “Giant’s Causeway,” the Dunluce Castle, Whiterocks Beach, and of course, whiskey. As TaylorMade reported, the Dunluce Castle was a filming location for the popular TV show Game of Thrones.

Adidas Golf’s giant shoes

Also inspired by the Giant’s Causeway, adidas Golf made limited-edition Tour 360 XT shoes for The Open. Unfortunately for American golfers, however, adidas says the shoes are available in Europe only.

FootJoy’s custom footwear

FootJoy created a limited-edition, navy-and-white Pro S/L golf shoe with The Open Championship logo dancing in the upper.

Luck of the Irish

Odyssey Golf’s custom putter covers draw obvious Irish inspiration that feature green clovers in a blue-green-white-and-yellow colorway with a green interior.

Environment-friendly water bottles

The Open Championship has custom refillable water bottles, rather than using plastic bottles at the event.

Life Water aluminum cans will also be available, which as Jordan Spieth showed us, can be shotgunned for quicker consumption.
