Step Up Your Swing with Sustainable Golf Shoes
With our mission of crafting sustainable shoes with all-day comfort, a golf shoe was the next natural step. Meet the Golf Dashers. Featuring a spacious forefoot, full-swing stability, and a modern aesthetic that still pays homage to a vintage look, the Golf Dashers take you from the greens to the clubhouse in style & comfort.ย
- Equipped with a classic midfoot saddle and a plush SweetFoamยฎ midsole, the Golf Dasher blends support and cushioning.
- Grippy rubber lugs ensure solid lateral stability on the fairway and greens, keeping you steady through every swing.ย
- And since you canโt always guarantee a sunny tee time, the weather-ready ripstop and bio-based mudguard shield your feet from light elements on the course, helping keep them dry in the face of morning dew or unexpected rain showers.
So, how do you go about making a sustainable golf shoe? With renewable materials and production methods. And if youโre familiar with our other shoesโfrom the rugged Trail Runners to the convenience of the Tree Dasher Relaysโyou may recognize the materials weโve used to engineer the Golf Dashers.
Letโs take a closer look into what makes the Golf Dashers the best sustainable golf shoe on the planet.
Meet the Renewable Materials That Make the Golf Dashers
Weโve reduced the carbon footprint of the Golf Dashers to just 6.88 CO2e while still delivering superior performance and a supremely comfortable fit.
Hereโs how we did it:
ZQ Merino Wool: Sourced from New Zealandโwhere sheep outnumber humans about six to one(!)โour ZQ Merino Wool is made using a process that requires 60% less energy than materials used in the average synthetic shoe. Soft, durable, and moisture-wicking, youโll find this wool combined with recycled polyester in the ripstop of the shoe, as well as the ultra-soft lining inside.
FSC-Certified Natural Rubber Outsole: Rooted in responsible forestry practices, the FSC-certified natural rubber outsole not only delivers impeccable traction via grippy, multi-directional lugs but also minimizes environmental impact, helping to preserve our ecosystems in the process.
Bio-Based TPU Mudguard: A bio-based TPU mudguard helps keep your feet dry during the wetter days on the courseโand also when you encounter any unexpected splashes.
SweetFoamยฎ Midsole: Our innovative SweetFoamยฎ is made from sugarcane sourced from southern Brazil, where it thrives solely on rainwater, eliminating the need for irrigation. This sugarcane is a fully renewable resource, growing rapidly and actively removing carbon from the atmosphere. Plus, our sourcing is guided by stringent measures for both environmental preservation and human well-beingโa collaborative effort between Proforest and Braskemโwith farming operations subject to independent audits.
Castor Bean Oil: Along with eucalyptus tree fiber and our ZQ Merino wool blend, the Golf Dasherโs insoles include castor bean oil-based foam, a highly sustainable and biodegradable material.Own the course with the most comfortable golf shoes that do their part to preserve your favorite greens and fairways.
