FootJoy Sport Spikeless shoe launched

FootJoy has announced the release of the FJ Sport Spikeless Shoe, available from early November

FootJoy has launched the new FootJoy Sport Spikeless shoe, an extension of the crossover-inspired FJ Sport Range developed for players seeking designer golf shoes without compromising on quality.

The Spikeless version - which features rubber moulding on the outside in place of traditional soft spikes - is lightweight and flexible, and designed to combine the leading technology with the latest in golf fashion.

A new, lighter midsole helps to reduce weight, whilst also providing additional comfort and soft underfoot cushioning. The new midsole has also been implemented in conjunction with a flexible design around the forefoot.

"The FJ Sport Spikeless in an exception new addition to our portfolio of market-leading golf styles and our design team has done a magnificent job in creating a cutting-edge, streamline and fashionable shoe that both looks greats and performs," said Russell Lawes, FootJoy's European Marketing Manager.

"The FJ Sport family is one of the most recognised franchises in the golf footwear sector and I am confident the addition of our new spikeless model will continue our reputation for taking youthful, sports styling and fusing it with industry-leading performance and technology that FJ shoes are renowned for."

The FJ Sport Spikeless (RRP £100) will be available from early November in both white/orange and white/blue combinations.
