Nike Golf Introduces the Ultimate Wet Weather Shoe - Nike Zoom Bandon

TORONTO (September 16, 2009) - Nike Golf has introduced the newest and most advanced shoe to date to combat wet weather conditions on the golf course.

 Designed for the avid golfer who won't be kept away on a rainy day, the Nike Zoom Bandon features a seam-sealed synthetic upper as well as a waterproof lining that provides an unmatched level of waterproof protection as well as a breathable barrier to moisture.  

More flexible and durable than leather, the unique seam-sealed synthetic technology won't stretch out or break down over time, resulting in a more flexible and durable shoe that offers comfort, fit and performance round after round.

Other essential features include a zipper shroud closure that keeps water out and laces dry, while the unique mid-cut height blocks water from entering at the ankle line for the ultimate in weatherproof protection. Ultimately, this shoe allows golfers to play with "zero distractions" - spend more time thinking about your game and less time worrying about your feet staying dry.

In addition to wet weather protection, the Nike Zoom Bandon offers golfers comfort and stability through responsive, low profile cushioning provided by Nike's Zoom Air unit in the heel of the shoe.   Also featured is the Nike Power Platform, which provides golfers with better balance, smoother weight transfer and more power through impact.

Designed to be waterproof but also low maintenance, the secondary traction elements on the Nike Zoom Bandon have been designed to decrease clogging around the spikes, making these shoes easier to clean after a wet and muddy round of golf.

The Nike Zoom Bandon offers every advantage for every weather condition to coordinate with Nike Golf's all-weather products, including the Storm-Fit Elite Jacket and Pants, All Weather gloves and Cold Weather mitts

In addition to the features noted above, the Nike Zoom Bandon offers the following technical benefits:
-Full-length Phylon midsole
-2-Year Limited Waterproof Warranty
-Scorpion Stinger Spikes and Tri-LOK system
-External Heel Stabilizer
