Fitzpatrick to step out in Skecher’s new Blade shoe at Augusta

World no.10 Matt Fitzpatrick will be teeing it up in his new Skechers GO GOLF BLADE SE shoes at the Masters tournament this week at Augusta.

Fitzpatrick, who is an ambassador the specialist footwear brand, has worn a few special edition golf shoes from Skechers at previous Majors and some of the PGA Tour’s most prestigious tournaments, but this will be the first time that his special edition footwear will be available at retailers here in the UK.

Regarded as one of golf’s most storied bodies of water, the Skechers GO GOLF BLADE SE takes inspiration from the natural beauty of Rae’s Creek – part of the famous stretch of holes that often determines who will become the Masters winner.

The sole features a custom graphic depicting the topographical map of the intersection of Rae’s Creek and Augusta National

Iridescent detailing, coupled with frosty green and blue colour ways give a nod to the creek and its perfectly manicured landscape. White midsoles also sit atop a golf-specific outsole made with translucent TPU, and, if you look closely, the sock liner and outsole are designed with a custom graphic made from a topographical map of the intersection of Rae’s Creek and Augusta National.

Skechers Go GOLF Blade shoes are available at www.skechers.co.uk and are priced at £159.99.
