Boston, Mass, August 24, 2017…….New Balance is introducing two new Minimus golf shoes to its line-up for Fall 2017. The Minimus has been one of the most successful footwear collections since New Balance entered the golf market. The new Minimus Tour and Minimus SL are high performance, lightweight, athletic-style golf shoes that feature waterproof uppers and a REVLite® midsoles designed for ultimate comfort.
Minimus Tour
The Minimus Tour is New Balance’s first Minimus golf shoe with spikes. The athletic- looking style shoe is built on a NL-1 last with a wider forefront and lower instep. The wider forefoot allows the foot to spread out for balance, while the lower instep height helps the foot to stay connected to the ground, which improves overall feel and power. The shoe features a waterproof upper with a FantomFit® support system, providing ultralight support and fit. The REVlite® 4mm drop midsole gives golfers a lightweight ride without sacrificing cushioning and stability. The outsole is made of Ultra-flexible Ndurance® rubber and has six Champ Slim-Lok® Zarma Tour cleats.* The shoe also has a Ortholite® insole for cool, dry comfort.
