Leading performance golf footwear brand strengthens international presence while deepening ties to two of Australia’s most influential golfers
PORTLAND, Ore. — PAYNTR Golf, the rapidly growing performance golf footwear brand, today announced a new distributor partnership that will expand the brand’s presence throughout Australia and New Zealand, marking another significant milestone in the company’s continued global growth strategy.
The partnership will bring PAYNTR Golf’s innovative performance footwear lineup to golfers across both markets, building upon the brand’s momentum and increasing demand for products engineered specifically to enhance performance on the golf course.
Australia has played a pivotal role in PAYNTR Golf’s rise, with two of the country’s most recognizable golf stars, Jason Day and Min Woo Lee, serving as brand ambassadors and product collaborators. Their involvement has helped shape two of PAYNTR Golf’s most successful footwear collections while providing invaluable feedback through extensive wear-testing and performance validation.
“Australia has always been a market that appreciates innovation, authenticity and performance, making it a natural fit for PAYNTR Golf,” said Mike Forsey, Co-Founder and President of PAYNTR Golf. “Over the last five years, we’ve experienced tremendous growth as golfers around the world continue to embrace a performance-based golf shoe line designed to help them play better. The demand we’re seeing internationally reinforces our belief that golfers want footwear that delivers measurable performance benefits without compromising comfort or style. This new partnership represents an important step in making PAYNTR Golf more accessible to golfers throughout Australia and New Zealand.”
The expansion comes as PAYNTR Golf continues to build momentum around its flagship collections. The Speed Classic Collection, developed with significant input from PGA TOUR star and Major Champion, Jason Day, combines athletic performance technologies with premium, timeless styling. Day played an integral role in both the design process and extensive wear-testing program, helping refine the collection’s performance characteristics for golfers at every level.
In addition, the Reserve Classic Collection has benefited from the collaboration and feedback of PGA TOUR standout Min Woo Lee. Known for his dynamic style and elite athleticism, Lee worked closely with the PAYNTR Golf product team throughout the design and wear-testing process to create footwear that meets the demands of today’s modern golfer. Building on that successful partnership, PAYNTR Golf plans to introduce a Min Woo Lee signature model this fall.
“We are excited to help introduce PAYNTR Golf to golfers throughout Australia and New Zealand,” said Jamie Dwyer, Exclusive Distributor for Australia & New Zealand for PAYNTR Golf. The brand has established a strong reputation for innovation, performance and quality, and there’s a growing appetite among golfers in our region for products that can genuinely enhance their game. With the support of Jason Day and Min Woo Lee, along with a product lineup that delivers on performance, comfort and style, we are exceptionally well-positioned for success in these markets.”
PAYNTR Golf has earned industry recognition for its biomechanically engineered footwear platform, designed to optimize ground reaction forces, improve stability and maximize energy transfer throughout the golf swing. The company’s commitment to performance-first innovation has helped fuel rapid growth across North America, Europe, Asia and other key international markets.
The new distribution partnership will support expanded retail availability, enhanced customer service and increased brand visibility throughout Australia and New Zealand beginning immediately.
