Portland, OR – PAYNTR Golf today announced the launch of its highly anticipated Sport Classic line, introducing two premium models that combine timeless style with the brand’s performance-driven technology. Originally developed as trainers, the designs caught the attention of PAYNTR Golf equity partner and major champion Jason Day, who immediately requested they be adapted for the golf course.
The result is the Sport Classic LE and Sport Mid LE RS, two innovative models that fuse elevated aesthetics with PAYNTR’s proven ground–up performance technologies.
“When Jason first saw the trainer versions of these shoes, his reaction was immediate that he wanted them built as golf shoes,” said Mike Forsey, Co-Founder and President of PAYNTR Golf. “That excitement validated our belief that golfers want footwear that blends classic styling with modern performance technologies. The Sport Classic line delivers exactly that.”
The Sport Classic LE (MSRP: $160) available in three colorways, features a full-grain leather upper with a WATERPROOF+ breathable membrane, delivering all-weather protection without compromising comfort. The shoe is built on PAYNTR’s PMX Speed Plate and PMXNitro+ Midsole for lightweight energy return and stability, with a TPU Outsole and ORTHOLITE™ 3D Molded Footbed ensuring all-day cushioning and support.
The Sport Mid LE RS (MSRP: $180) elevates the formula with a mid-cut silhouette, Pro Tour Flex Spike traction system, and the same premium full-grain leather upper and WATERPROOF+ membrane. A PMXNitro+ Midsole and ORTHOLITE™ Footbed further enhance comfort and responsiveness for golfers who demand maximum performance.
The Women’s Sport Classic LE (MSRP: $150) offers the same premium craftsmanship and performance innovation in two bold new colorways, plum and pink. Featuring a full-grain leather upper, WATERPROOF+ breathable membrane, PMXNitro+ Midsole, TPU Outsole, and ORTHOLITE™ 3D Footbed, the women’s model blends elegance with engineering to deliver a versatile shoe designed for all-day play on and off the course.
“The Sport Classic collection represents a new dimension for PAYNTR Golf,” added Michael Glancy, Co-Founder of PAYNTR Golf. “It’s a nod to traditional sport craftsmanship, elevated with our performance innovation and propulsion technology. Golfers now have a shoe that has that classic sport feel in any setting yet is engineered to perform at the highest level on the golf course.”
