Portland, OR – PAYNTR Golf, the performance-driven innovator in golf footwear, proudly announces the expansion of its acclaimed training footwear line with the launch of the Trainer X 001 LE, a limited-edition, full-grain leather training shoe engineered for all-day wear and versatile performance. Building on the success of the original X Trainer XC 001, which introduced a new benchmark for innovation and technology in training shoes, the Trainer X 001 LE delivers premium comfort, heritage style, and PAYNTR Golf’s signature performance-enhancing technologies. The Trainer X 001 LE will retail for $160.00.
“As we continue to expand our training category, the Trainer X 001 LE brings a new level of craftsmanship and sophistication to the PAYNTR Golf line,” said Mike Forsey, Co-founder and President of PAYNTR Golf. “This shoe offers the same propulsion, grip, and underfoot technology our athletes have come to expect, now elevated with a rich full-grain leather upper for a more refined, lifestyle-driven aesthetic.”
Built with the same DNA that made the X Trainer XC 001 a breakthrough in multi-surface performance, the Trainer X 001 LE integrates PMXSpeedPLT, PAYNTR Golf’s proprietary propulsion plate, designed to support efficient energy transfer and explosive movement. The PMXNitro+ midsole, infused with PAYNTR’s lightweight and responsive PMX Foam, delivers maximum energy return and plush cushioning, while the PMX Grip Lite rubber outsole ensures confident traction across varied terrain. A molded Ortholite® footbed enhances step-in comfort and breathability.
Key features of the Trainer X 001 LE include:
- Full Grain Leather Upper for durability, classic styling, and structured support
- PMXSpeedPLT Propulsion Plate for enhanced energy return and movement efficiency
- PMX Grip Lite Rubber Outsole for lightweight, multi-directional traction
