Modesto, CA — Similar to the launch of the CDT Power, Hi-Tec Golf pushes the envelope one more time with the first environmentally sensible golf shoe.
The journey for Hi-Tec Golf has taken us from being ultra comfortable to incredibly lightweight to being a leader in technologically advanced outsoles for enhanced performance. The inside of our shoes are never dull providing materials necessary to increase comfort and keep the foot cool on that long walk of 18 holes.
Again, Hi-Tec has decided to launch ‘the new’ that retailers and consumers look for at the start of each golf season. With the softest of full grain leather uppers and the same comfort, style and performance as all Hi-Tec shoes offer, 99% of the materials used in the Enviro are environmentally friendly.
"Rarely is there a product made today that does not have some type of recyclable component or story behind it. Whether it being ‘green’, recycled’ or ‘earth friendly’, we read about it in the papers, see it in the movies, and find companies are realizing that it isn’t just a fad but reality that society wants to be environmentally conscious." States Fredrik Sundstrom, Global Golf Director. "The world is definitely changing and we want to push our golf division to be more responsible for the earth. "
The Enviro is created using organic vegetable-tanned chrome-free leathers, outsoles made of rice husks and latex rubber and a recycled sockliner. The 1% not green is the spike receptacle although Hi-Tec is working with their supplier to create something for the future to make it a full 100% green.
"The Enviro was a fun project for us to work on. This is the present and future of creating products. As planned, we still maintained a classic type upper and kept the high level of comfort which consumers look to our shoes to offer." Sunstrom notes. "If it wasn’t cool looking and comfortable we wouldn’t stand a chance. One thing we were sure about was not compromising for a ‘story’."
The Enviro has a 2 year waterproof guarantee and also offers the CDT® technology and retails for $130.00 suggested retail.
