Ecco has announced the expansion of its popular BIOM Zero range of golf shoes, designed to be used both on and off the course.

The Danish brand's lightest-ever shoe - weighing in at just 270 grams - is now offered in two distinct patterns in an array of different colour options.

The BIOM Zero features two patented performance systems - Natural Motion and Ecco Dynamic Traction - which facilitate its lightweight and ground-hugging characteristics.

"We launched BIOM Zero as a surprise limited-edition at the 2013 PGA Merchandise Show, where it garnered tremendous attention and sold out almost immediately," said Michael Waack, Head of Global Golf at Ecco.

"We've listened to requests from our global retail partners and their customers by releasing more styles, patterns and exciting colours."

BIOM Zero sits on am E-DTS outsole with approximately 100 moulded traction bars and 800 traction angles, which is constructed from a highly durable water-resistant material for tour-quality grip.

It also boasts full-length foot support through innovative impact absorption, full-leather second skin lining and Hydromax tanned-in treatment for weather resistance.

Ecco golf shoes are worn in competition by the likes of Thomas Bjorn, Graeme McDowell, Fred Couples and Thongchai Jaidee.

Ecco's BIOM Zero shoes - part of the Spring/Summer 2014 collection - come with an RRP of £160.
