Over the past few decades the term ‘hybrid’ has become familiar to golfers. In the 1990’s hybrid clubs – a combination of two types of clubs, long irons and fairway woods – were introduced. In recent years golf courses have begun offering hybrid tees, which are a combination or middle-ground between two existing sets of tees and feature official course ratings and slopes, to suit the challenge and enjoyment for all their players.
The idea of creating footwear that can be worn by golfers and adventurers alike led the designers at TRUE Linkswear to engineer a hybrid shoe that meets the need of both activities.
TRUE Linkswear (TRUE), creators of ultra-comfortable, modern golf footwear designed for walking on and off the course, announces the launch of the Ascent PNWProof — a new athletic training golf shoe built to thrive in any environment. Inspired by long walks on Pacific Northwest trails, the Ascent PNWProof reflects the region’s rugged beauty and is built for its unpredictable weather. TRUE’s design team channeled that inspiration into a shoe that delivers on performance, versatility, and comfort — wherever the day leads.
The Ascent’s trail-inspired traction offers stability and grip across diverse terrain — from fairways to forest paths. Whether on the course, a hike, or city streets, wearers will experience exceptional comfort, style, and performance in every step. The Ascent PNWProof combines a 1-year waterproof guarantee with a laminated waterproof upper, ensuring dependable protection in all conditions. The all-weather shoe is ultra-flexible for comfort, features a breathable construction, and trail-inspired traction for versatility on and off the course. The Wanderlux supercritical midsole foam delivers responsive cushioning and durability, while the TRUE Comfort Collar provides a plush, supportive fit from heel to toe.
“Our goal with the Ascent was to create a shoe that truly embodies the Pacific Northwest spirit – versatile, durable, and ready for anything – in an athletic-shoe design that fits the active lifestyle of today’s golfers and adventurers,” said Jason Moore, CEO of TRUE Linkswear. “It’s been tested by caddies across the country and designed for 36 holes in any type of terrain, ensuring all-day comfort and performance no matter where your round – or your adventure – takes you.”
Subtle design details — including the PNWProof logo and hydro-textured heel guard — pay homage to TRUE’s roots in the Pacific Northwest and weather-ready build. The TRUE Ascent PNWProof is the ultimate all-weather companion — designed to look good, feel good, and perform anywhere life takes you.
