SQAIRZ SPEED3 Spikeless Golf Shoe
For years, both Dr. Barry Lotz and the 29-year-old Professional Golf Teachers Association of America (www.pgtaa.com) testing group has evaluated virtually every major golf shoe brand on the market. One thing has become abundantly clear: every new model from SQAIRZ has significantly outperformed its predecessor.
In fact, every SQAIRZ shoe I have personally tested has improved tenfold over previous generations in stability, comfort, traction, and overall performance.
The new SPEED3™ Spikeless may very well be the finest evolution yet.
Golf footwear has changed dramatically. Today’s golf swings are faster, more athletic, and generate far greater ground forces than ever before. Modern golfers demand a shoe that not only performs during the swing but is comfortable enough to wear all day, whether walking 18 holes, practicing on the range, or traveling.
Unlike many “Spikeless” golf shoes that are little more than sneakers disguised for golf, the SPEED3™ Spikeless was engineered from the ground up specifically for golf performance.
The result?
A golf shoe that delivers exceptional traction, outstanding lateral stability, remarkable comfort, and the confidence to swing aggressively without losing your footing.
What immediately separates the SPEED3™ Spikeless from virtually every competitor is its patented roomier toe box design. SQAIRZ understands what many manufacturers still ignore: your feet are the foundation of your golf swing. By allowing the toes to spread naturally, golfers gain improved balance, better ground interaction, and greater stability throughout the swing motion.
That stability translates directly into performance.
Terry Hashimoto, co-developer of the renowned BodiTrak pressure mapping system, tested more than 200 golfers wearing their preferred footwear brands versus SQAIRZ. The results were eye-opening. Across virtually all skill levels, players increased clubhead speed, distance, vertical force production, rotational efficiency, and overall balance when switching to SQAIRZ.
As Hashimoto stated:
“Stability is the key to generating power from the ground.”
And nowhere is that more evident than in the SPEED3™ Spikeless.
The new SmartTraction™ 254-point spikeless traction system provides one of the most secure foundations we have tested in a spikeless model. Whether hitting from wet turf, uneven lies, or firm summer conditions, the shoe remains exceptionally planted throughout the swing.
Equally impressive is the integration of the new Blumaka® performance footbed, which delivers exceptional cushioning and energy return. Walking golfers will appreciate how fresh their legs remain late into the round.
The Sta-Put™ lacing system is another thoughtful addition. Tiny silicone grip points prevent the laces from loosening during play, eliminating the irritating mid-round retying ritual many golfers know all too well.
Our PGTAA testing group found the SPEED3™ remarkably comfortable directly out of the box, with virtually no break-in period required. The breathable ripstop upper keeps the foot cool while maintaining excellent waterproof protection during early morning rounds and wet conditions.
Several testers who previously wore other leading golf shoe brands have now fully transitioned to SQAIRZ.
Why?
Because these shoes simply perform.
They provide a more stable platform, improved balance, excellent traction, superior comfort, and a feeling of confidence throughout the swing that many golfers have never previously experienced in a spikeless design.
Are they slightly more substantial than some ultra-light “slipper-like” golf shoes currently flooding the market? Perhaps. But serious golfers understand that stability, structure, and proper support matter far more than shaving a few ounces of weight.
At the Professional Golf Teachers Association of America, we firmly believe the golf swing starts from the ground up. If your feet are unstable, your swing will be unstable.
The SPEED3™ Spikeless gives golfers the stable foundation necessary to create better balance, improved sequencing, and more efficient power transfer.
In Barry’s Final Thoughts:
The new SPEED3™ Spikeless is not merely another cosmetic update. It represents a major advancement in golf footwear engineering. Every generation of SQAIRZ shoes continues to improve dramatically, and this latest model is unquestionably their best effort yet.
Comfortable. Stable. Athletic. Powerful.
For golfers seeking true performance in a modern spikeless design, the SPEED3™ Spikeless is, quite simply, Nullus Secundus — second to none.
