Bespoke golf shoes. Discover the creation platform
In a unique and innovative initiative, suMisura presents its platform for creating customised golf shoes. Far from the “rough and heavy” shoe, the suMisura golf shoe is positioned in the golf market to serve those who, as well as being lovers of the sport of golf, can’t do without their brand of style, even on the green. In Box Calf leather, Polished Leather, Suede or exotic leathers, customers can choose any classic city shoe base and personalise it 100%, in various combinations of materials and colours so that they can really make a statement: These are MY golf shoes. Not just because you own it, but because you can create a unique, exclusive shoe that sets you apart from the rest thanks to your taste and personal stamp, affirmed in the design and the initials of your name signing an unprecedented and personalised creation. Better than a “limited edition”, the suMisura golf shoe is an authentic and exclusive creation that distinguishes the wearer.
The application is available on our website https://www.sumisura.pt/, under the shoe tab. Click on Mens dress golf and start your creative work. You can buy directly through the website or, if you prefer, book an appointment to visit our atelier for further advice.
A bit of history
Just as clubs have evolved from flexible wooden sticks to metal, just as balls have evolved since the 1800s, so golf shoes have undergone drastic transformations since golfers learnt to put spikes or studs in the sole of their shoes. The “Golfers Manual” of 1857 recommended that novices use small nails or spikes placed in the sole for a better grip on the grassy, damp ground, replacing the walking boots that were the first footwear used on the course. In 1891, the first shoes with spikes screwed into the sole were born, but although they were an add-on for players, they were never well received by greenskeepers who accused the nail-like spikes of spoiling the quality of the turf.
In 1906, Spalding took advantage of the failed “saddle oxford” adapted to racket sports, and adapted it to golf, which proved to be a tremendous success in terms of popularity.
In 1990, the upgrade of nails/pitons and their metal fittings, which nevertheless ruined greens and clubhouse floors, was replaced by a plastic alloy, less aggressive and still capable of fulfilling the major objective of providing abrasion and safety for the golfer.
The suMisura shoe is at the forefront of this fantastic story of golf, which is gaining more and more fans and players as a healthy, competitive and social game, and which has the prerogative of ending up on the 19th hole socialising and chatting in the clubhouse bar, making friends, doing business or just living life as it should be lived.
