In post: TRUE Ascent PNW evidence

A pair of TRUE Ascent PNWProof golf shoes arrived in the mail yesterday.

I now have them on and wear them around the house. Like all TRUE shoes, I find them immediately comfortable. They’re creating some magic among the trees in the Pacific Northwest.

The Ascent PNWProof (Pacific Northwest Proof) is an athletic-style shoe “inspired by long hikes on Pacific Northwest trails.”

In other words, it has a bit of a trail runner vibe. They are guaranteed waterproof for a year, with a laminated waterproof upper. It also has a breathable construction.

I’ll get a full review once I’ve done my usual multi-round testing. In the meantime, here’s TRUE’s press release:

Tacoma, Washington – REAL left clothes (TRUE), makers of ultra-comfortable, modern golf shoes 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 hikes on the Pacific Northwest trails, the Ascent PNWProof reflects the rugged beauty of the region and is built for the unpredictable weather. TRUE’s design team turned that inspiration into a shoe that delivers performance, versatility and comfort wherever the day takes you.
“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. “Tested by caddies across the country, it’s designed for 36 holes on any type of terrain, ensuring all-day comfort and performance wherever your round or adventure takes you.”
