PRESS RELEASE ISSUED BY FOOTJOY


Padraig Harrington and Footjoy

- a Perfect Fit in 2009

The No. 1 Shoe in Golf, FootJoy is delighted to announce that it has entered into a multi-year agreement with Padraig Harrington.

Harrington will wear the latest addition to the FootJoy range, SYNR·G, available from February 1 in UK. Designed and developed to provide a solid foundation, SYNR·G is the most stable shoe FootJoy has ever produced and is perfect for players such as Harrington who possess higher swing speeds and demand additional support and motion control in their golf shoes.
"FootJoy is a brand that just about every young golfer is brought up wearing, and I'm was no different," said Harrington. “The belief should be that you are playing the very best shoes available, which will give you an edge over the field. The new SYNR-G shoes from FootJoy support the foot well throughout the golf swing, which is so important to hitting solid, powerful shots.”
A perfect combination of comfort and stability the SYNR·G will take golf shoe performance to a new level, achieved through the exclusive Tri-lateral Stability Frameä combined with a perforated alloy mid-foot support bridge to cradle the foot and provide a stable hitting platform.
“We are thrilled to welcome Padraig Harrington to Team FJ,” said Richard Fryer, European Marketing Manager - FootJoy. “Padraig not only brings an unparalleled record of worldwide success but also an intimate knowledge of the research and technology behind footwear development. He will no doubt be a great ambassador for FootJoy.”
