ECCO Golf unveil latest Biom Hybrid 3 golf shoe

Published:

ECCO Golf have unveiled the Ecco Biom Hybrid 3, a golf shoe which breaks traction and stability boundaries with a new TRI-FI-GRIP outsole and GORE-TEX construction.

The model, which is the latest evolution of the brand’s multi-award-winning and best-selling ECCO BIOM® HYBRID franchise, features a new Tri-Fi-Grip outsole and has three segments engineered for ‘multi-purpose zonal performance’: one for stability, another for durability and a third for rotational support.

Review: Ecco Biom Hybrid 3 Golf Shoes

According to Ecco, these zonal structure are a product of intensive research and data analysis in the ECCO Golf Lab. Each is formed from ultra-durable T.PU, meaning the shoes can be worn on and off course without affecting performance thanks to the TRI-FI-GRIP™ Zonal Performance.

Lead Designer Andrzej Bikowski’s focus was to ride the wave of success created by the first Ecco Biom Hybrid since its launch in 2011.

“We approached this project with the question; how can we make the best, better?” Bikowski said. “By combining our new TRI-FI-GRIP™ innovation with the same technological features created by the BIOM® last, I believe we have achieved our goal.

“The fact that all ECCO BIOM® HYBRID 3 models offer complete waterproof GORE-TEX® construction further exemplifies our commitment to progress and excellence.”

As is the case with all of the golf shoes in ECCO Golf’s Spring/Summer 2018 Collection, the ECCO BIOM® HYBRID 3 is crafted at company-owned factories that utilise FLUIDFORM™ technology to bond the upper and outsole unit, creating a one-piece shoe without the use of glue or stitching.

Zone 2: forms the middle of the outsole and is designed to guarantee walking comfort through the round and beyond. It also features a durability region in the heel where shoes can be prone to wearing

Zone 3: is a specially engineered rotational section designed to optimise the movement in the forefoot through slim, rounded lugs which promote fast and easy rotation through the swing
