Non-Cleated Performance Golf Shoe Featuring a Traditional Profile and GORE-TEX
Waltham, MA, February 2006 . . . The Etonic G>SOK�, the 1st non-cleated performance� golf shoe, has taken the golf world by storm. This popular shoe, introduced last year, has emerged as one of the top selling shoes in golf shops. And now, to widen the appeal of the G>SOK to golfers looking for a more traditional styling with additional performance features, Etonic has introduced the G>SOK-GT. The new G>SOK-GT features a traditional last, enhanced outsole, and GORE-TEX®, the premier waterproof system.
"The G>SOK has been an amazing innovation," stated Karen Pitts, vice president Etonic Worldwide. "Golfers not only enjoy the level of convenience it provides by being non-cleated, but also the fit and comfort features are far superior to other golf shoes on the market. With the new G>SOK-GT we are able to broaden the appeal by providing golfers a sleeker look with additional performance benefits."
The new G>SOK-GT features an enhanced Multi-Zone Traction System� outsole by Goodyear with extended flex zones, longer stability bars, and additional tri-directional pyramid turf grips for superior traction. A TPU stability shank also provides added arch support and lateral stability. The full grain leather upper has a new sleeker last giving the shoe a more traditional look without sacrificing comfort and fit. The soft leather linings of the G>SOK-GT combine with GORE-TEX® moisture wicking linings for superior waterproof protection and maximum breathability.
The G>SOK-GT comes in one pattern and three colorways: white/brown, white/black, and black. Available in May 2006, the suggested retail for this two-year waterproof guarantee shoe is $125.00.
