speaks to the innovative combination of comfort and function behind
these new products that makes them unlike any other golf shoe on

All Crocs™ Golf with Hank Haney styles are intended to be worn
both on and off the course and were designed with input from Haney

hybrid construction plus a midsole and footbed made with Crocs’
proprietary Croslite™ material, providing form-to-foot cushioning
for all day wear. The new collection strikes the perfect balance
between comfort and technical engineering for the casual
golfer.
In addition to the spring styles debut, attendees got a first
glance at the new Crocs™ Golf fall collection, which included the
Langdon LoPro and the Tyne LoPro – both styles are designed to
offer the golfer more technical styling with a one-year limited
