Ecco's Cool Hydromax shoes in brick colour
|
Just as football boots have transformed over the years from hobnails to ballet pumps, so have golf shoes. Even in the 1960s, golf footwear was heavy and clumsy - street brogues with spikes on the soles - and some of us even wore our cricket boots.
Today, while many professionals still wear the classic, stylish golf shoe, a new generation of amateur golfers are being tempted by something with much more 'street cred'.
The latest models from innovative Danish shoe manufacturer ECCO are a typical example, with its launch of the Casual Cool Hydromax line.
Taking its lead from high-street fashion this colourful range has been made from a combination of soft leather uppers and
ECCO's 'comfort technologies' to produce a shoe that the company says 'stands out and performs'. It usesan injection-moulding process to 'ensure durability, comfort, shock absorption and water-resistance'.
The Casual Cool Hydromax is available in white/black, black/ice white, white/Espresso/sand and brick/white, costing £100.
