Italian brand introduces two new lightweight outsoles & comfortable insole technologies
Luxury golf fashion brand Duca del Cosma has raised the bar with the launch of its standout SS25 golf shoe collection, headlined by two pioneering lightweight outsole technologies and a supremely comfortable insole on a host of new designs to offer golfers an unmatched sense of style and premium attention to detail.
Comprised of more than 38 new golf shoes for men and women, the latest range has been taken to the next level with the addition of the all-new Airplay ROMA and Airplay MILANO outsoles on several sporty and classic styles respectively.
Designed in Europe with unrivalled Italian flare and intricate attention to detail, the brand has taken on board feedback from its global Tour ambassadors to save weight and position it elsewhere in the shoe for maximum stability, ensuring the new outsoles are up to 15% lighter than previous iterations.
Another key technology in the ultra-modern SS25 collection is the PU membrane INSITE ARCHRELIEF insole, exclusive to Duca del Cosma, on 18 men’s and 14 women’s styles to enhance comfort straight out of the box and offer targeted arch support to relieve plantar pressure and ease ankle pronation. The insole material is also 50% plant based to ensure it is a responsibly sourced option that elevates the brand’s sustainability credentials.
“We’ve truly raised the bar with our latest offering by fusing timeless craftmanship with state-of-the-art footwear technologies to deliver the most complete package for golfers this season,” said Dolf Stoffberg, CEO at Duca del Cosma. “Taking on board valuable feedback from our Tour players who rack up a serious amount of steps each week, we’ve developed the new insole technology to provide optimal cushioning and shock absorption to leave feet remaining fresh all-day long,” he added.
The athletic-inspired Airplay ROMA and classic look Airplay MILANO innovations are comprised of a supremely lightweight and soft cushioned EVA midsole – made using recycled materials – and a co-moulded nylon shank to provide a solid stance and enhanced shock absorption for more stability during the downswing.
Hybrid nubs paired with an aggressive groove pattern and sawtooth traction systems on the sturdy outsole units help deliver unmatched grip on all terrains both on and off the golf course.
Spearheading the women’s collection is the ultra-modern LATINA style. The latest addition to the golf sneaker category comes with an easy to clean, waterproof microfiber upper and Airplay ROMA outsole featuring strategic nub placement for impressive traction and grip. It is available in the striking colorways of White/Mint Green and White/Purple/Pink.
The classic TUSCANIA comes in a super vibrant color combination of White/Knockout Pink and is bolstered by the new Airplay MILANO outsole offering a long-lasting build and superior on-course performance.
The premium full grain leather upper with durable microfibre offers a luxurious appearance, while the INSITE ARCHRELIEF insole takes comfort to the next level.
Having launched a fluorescent pink shoe four years ago, the brand’s latest CORTONA design in the all-over Knockout Pink color is guaranteed to turn heads this season. Also available in an all-White option, it incorporates the Airplay ROMA outsole to combine high performance features with trendy sneaker looks, making it an ideal choice for both on and off the course.
The feminine ALESI is a chic and elegant sporty shoe with a classic Italian inspired monogram pattern and stunning patent leather details. It is both daring and fashionable in equal measure and is now available in the all-new White/Master Green and White/Champagne colorways for the forthcoming season to offer ultimate outfit choices.
Offered at an entry-level price point is the ANDIAMO shoe in White and White/Knockout Pink. Designed to provide superb versatility, the refreshing design features many of the latest innovations and technologies, including the Airplay ROMA outsole and INSITE® insole.
Leading styles featuring the Airplay 15 outsole include the refreshing VERONA shoe and OLIVERA 2 in three chic colors including the dazzling Rose Gold/White, Aruba Blue/White and elegant White/Rose Gold options. Building on from the first iteration of the OLIVERA, it features an INSITE ARCHRELIEF insole for superior comfort and support.
A host of other new women’s shoes include the SATURNIA in an eye-catching White/Prism pink colorway and the vibrant LICATA in White/Latte and White/Aruba Blue color options.
The contemporary FORO leads the striking new men’s styles to offer a seamless combination of top golf shoe performance and best-in-class modern looks. The stunning design features the Airplay ROMA outsole and INSITE® insole to offer cloud-like comfort, while the durable waterproof coated 3D vacuum air-mesh and microfibre upper with contrasting panelling and colorful details delivers a supremely bold design like no other golf shoe on the market.
Among the leading new classic design are the luxurious DANDY LEGGERO in a premium White/Snake option and refreshing DAVINCI LEGGERO in Navy and White. Both models incorporate the Airplay MILANO outsole and INSITE® insole to reduce foot fatigue, while the full grain Nappa leather upper exudes unrivalled Italian luxury and delivers top breathability. The smart BOSCO style is another new addition to the classic range. It features a host of the brand’s most advanced technologies and premium components at a competitive price point.
Offering a contemporary look, the DAVANTI 2 adds to the game-enhancing benefits of the award-winning DAVANTI which launched last year to great acclaim. It now incorporates the top-quality INSITE ARCH RELIEF insole following feedback from Team Duca player and four-time DP World Tour winner Joost Luiten and comes in a stunning White/Green colorway.
The sporty POSITANO ELITE takes the award-winning style to even greater heights with the new Airplay ROMA outsole incorporated into the sporty design. Offering a super on-trend look, it comes in White/Black, White/Blue and a stunning White/Green/Mandarin option.
