The FootJoy’s Pro/SL are currently one of the most popular shoes on the worldwide professional Tours. They combine a soft, comfortable, waterproof upper with a midsole/outsole unit that features three distinct layers for underfoot comfort, ultimate perimeter stability, and performance spikeless traction.

What gives the Pro/SL a unique blend of comfort and spikeless Tour-caliber performance is a proprietary polymer outsole material called ‘Fine-Tuned Foam’ (FTF). FTF is 10 per cent lighter than conventional EVA foams providing enhanced cushioning and shock absorption for added comfort.

The top layer of FTF, which cradles the foot, is a softer durometer to provide the golfer with all day comfort.

The lower/outer portion of FTF is firmer and delivers perimeter stability around the foot for maximum support throughout the swing.

Finally, TPU traction elements are strategically placed within the FTF outsole material to provide the golfer with enhanced traction, lateral stability and more points of contact with the ground.

These layers are fused together to deliver maximum comfort and create the most performance-driven spikeless midsole/outsole component offered from FootJoy.

Many players on Tour have chosen to wear Pro/SL including Adam Scott, Geoff Ogilvy, Louis Oosthuizen and Andrew “Beef” Johnston. Around 50 other players on the PGA and European Tours have opted for the comfort and spikeless performance of Pro/SL.

“I tested Pro/SL initially in the very dry, hard conditions of Chambers Bay then in the soft, wet conditions at St. Andrews and the traction was fantastic on both surfaces,” Scott said.

“I also felt like my feet had more surface contact with the ground and for a longer time during my swing, so competing in this shoe is a no-brainer.”

SRP: $279.95 (BOA); $249.95 (with laces).

The FootJoy Pro/SL shoes will be available in golf retail outlets from October 21. For more information about the Pro/SL shoes and other FootJoy products, visit www.footjoy.com.au
