Mizuno’s golf footwear range for 2021 includes five new or updated models and focuses on offering high comfort and ultra-lightweight performance, with an increased design influence from the brand’s running and court shoe heritage.
Following the success at retail of the running-inspired Wave Cadence golf shoe in 2020, Mizuno has push the green light on the next stage of its footwear development.
Kate Whitmore, Soft Goods Manager for Mizuno EMEA, said: “Mizuno is in a unique position – widely respected for our running shoes, but unlike other dedicated footwear brands, we also have a passionate following amongst golfers. This deeper footwear line-up features the perfect balance of comfort, looks and the stability needed for an efficient golf swing.”
