Ian Poulter’s Ryder Cup Shoes

Shared from TrendyGolf Magazine

Whatever happens in the final round at Medinah today, this year’s Ryder Cup will be remembered from a European perspective for the heroics of Ian Poulter.

The man from Hitchin has been nerveless under pressure, proving his worth and showing once more that he lives for golf’s biggest team competition.

One of the stand-out elements of Poulter’s latest Ryder Cup appearance, barring his teasing of the crowds and peerless putting stroke, has been the array of custom-designed Puma Neo Classic shoes that he’s been using to accessorise with the standard European team outfits.

Ian’s custom Neo Classic Pro Types were designed specifically to align with Europe’s Ryder Cup outfits, and here’s all the technical information from Puma themselves…

The Neo Classic ProType features PUMA Golf’s S2C Pro Chassis, Carbon Fiber Shank and ArchTec medial support; this combination provides the golfer with control, stability and power. The outsole features S2Quill Spikes with Performance INSert System (PINS) along with 130 S2Quill traction quills and 50 molded spikes. The replaceable and molded spikes are directionally molded to ensure maximum grip and superior traction while the PINS system provides improved balance, feel and lateral stability by bringing the golfer closer to the ground. Along with the spikes, the outsole features a full length flex groove as well as 10 forefoot flex grooves and 4 heel flex grooves for improved flexibility during your swing and while walking the course.

It remains to be seen whether the shoes can help carry Poulter and Team Europe to victory, but as ever he’ll be looking great while he’s trying!
