Tiger Woods Launches New Independent Golf Shoe Line
In a groundbreaking move for the golf world, Tiger Woods has recently parted ways with Nike to launch his independent performance brand, Sun Day Red. This decision marks a significant shift in golf footwear, as Woods introduces his first shoe model under the new brand, the Sun Day Red Pioneer Cypress.
Revolutionizing Golf Footwear
After years of collaboration with Nike, Tiger Woods is taking a new direction with the Sun Day Red Pioneer Cypress. Departing from the sportier styles associated with Nike, this debut model embraces the traditional derby-shaped design synonymous with golf shoes. Crafted from full grain leather with a perforated finish, the shoe features a distinct tiger stripe panel on the heel, adding a touch of Woods’ signature flair.
Performance and Innovation
The Sun Day Red Pioneer Cypress is not just about style; it incorporates cutting-edge performance features influenced by Woods’ extensive experience on the golf course. With a slim 6mm heel drop designed to maximize power and two interchangeable inserts for customizable comfort, this shoe is a testament to Woods’ dedication to innovation in golf footwear.
Availability and Pricing
Golf enthusiasts can now get their hands on the Sun Day Red Pioneer Cypress in five different colorways, including classic white/grey and black/grey options, as well as two limited edition designs. Priced at $250 for the core colorways and $275 for the limited edition pairs, these shoes offer golfers a blend of style, performance, and comfort.
