ECCO® GOLF UNVEILS S-LITE, ITS LIGHTEST EVER LEATHER GOLF SHOE

Danish golf footwear innovators, ECCO GOLF, have unveiled their latest revolutionary design, ECCO S-LITE, a one-of-a-kind hybrid shoe which breaks boundaries as the lightest leather golf shoe ever made by the company.

Taking a fresh innovative approach to golf shoe design, ECCO S-LITE blends cutting-edge engineering and comfort to ensure an ultra-light on-course experience.

Lightweight ECCO RICH TWO-TONE YAK leather uppers lined with a soft textile provides natural water repellent and breathable properties, with the ground-breaking E-DTS™ LITE outsole offering award-winning grip and unrivalled flexibility that still packs a punch with on-course traction.

The innovative multi-injection production process has enabled ECCO GOLF to design a base that’s 66% thinner than any other T.PU outsole that the company has previously created, making it the perfect packable playing option for overseas travel, or for an after-work twilight round on a hot summer’s day.

ECCO S-LITE further highlights ECCO GOLF’s commitment to innovate through a unique set of features and benefits, including:

• Premium, durable ECCO YAK leather, made in the company’s own tanneries

• An award-winning E-DTS™ LITE hybrid outsole design that adds more than 100 traction studs and 800 traction angles for excellent grip in all playing conditions

• FLUIDFORM™ Technology which is a ‘state change’ process that uses specialised fluid materials to form around an anatomical last, ensuring a finely-tuned balance of cushioning and rebound, while also creating an integral, flexible and durable bond, without the compromises common with stitched or glued assemblies

Stylish diamond-shaped embossing on the upper increases wearing comfort with lightweight breathability, while a soft textile lining offers an extremely comfortable on-foot feel. Additional support is provided through a moulded leather heel counter and inside toe reinforcement to ensure stable footing throughout the swing.

Additional features of ECCO S-LITE include:

• A P.U midsole with a P.U wing, wrapping the sides of the foot delivers stability on and off the course

• A premium soft leather foot bed that offers a soft feel and natural moisture management

ECCO S-LITE is crafted at company-owned factories that utilise FLUIDFORM™ Technology to bond the upper and outsole unit, creating a one-piece shoe without the use of glue or stitching. Benefits include flexibility, durability and a lightweight construction.

RRP ECCO S-LITE MEN’S £160

WOMEN’S £150
