with the ground, but also have structure to permit adequate movement for correct weight distribution. Today’s lightweight, flexible, sneaker-like shoes cannot hold up to the weight shifts and forces created during the swing. To create distance and balance during the swing, you need to use the ground and the only connection to the ground is the golf shoe. The founder of SQAIRZ, Robert Winskowicz loves golf and is constantly searching for ways to improve performance on the course. He joined with three highly recognized footwear designers to develop SQAIRZ Golf Shoes to maximize stability and swing speed. Phil Stotter, Director of Sports Science at V1 Sports & Ground Force, one of the top experts in biomechanics and the use of ground force stated: “When we talk about biomechanics of the golf swing, it all starts with the body and its contact with the ground. The feet are the only two objects that actually touch the ground. If there are limitations in balance or stability with the ground, the golf swing will be affected and result in less than satisfactory performance.” Proven Results Before SQAIRZ were released for sale to the golfing public, months of independent testing versus competitive golf shoes proved that they produced more ground surface area connection than any other golf shoe. This greater ground force reaction, balance and stability, results in more accuracy and distance for every golf shot. Last season, PGA Tour professional Sepp Straka switched to SQAIRZ Golf Shoes and had a career year. Straka had five top ten finishes, including a win at the Honda Classic to go with one runner-up, as well as a third-place finish. He earned a career high $4.7 million and finished the season at No. 7 on the FedEx Cup points list, which earned him another $1.75 million from the FedEx Cup bonus pool. He was quoted after his win at the Honda Classic, “SQAIRZ Shoes allowed me to really go after it, make three birdies in the final five holes, plus hit the longest drive of the week on the final hole to win the Honda Classic.”
