Shoes to be Worn at 2005 Solheim Cup, Offered for Limited Retail sale

Danish footwear giant ECCO, the official footwear sponsor of the 2005 European Solheim Cup team, introduces two specially designed, limited edition shoes inspired by The Solheim Cup.

Incorporating elements of the flags from the European Union and United States, these shoes will be worn by members of the European team and made available to members of the U.S. team exclusively at the 2005 Solheim Cup, Sept. 9-11 at Crooked Stick Golf Club in Carmel, Indiana. For a limited time, they will also be available to the general public at the Crooked Stick golf shop and at www.eccousa.com.


"The Solheim Cup is the ideal showcase for the ECCO brand as it brings together elite players from Europe and the U.S.,” says Per Aagren, General Manager of ECCO’s golf division. “We’re proud to provide ECCO comfort and style to both teams and look forward to what is certain to be an excellent event."

As an official sponsor, ECCO will be featured in the official program and signage will be placed at the main entrance to the event. ECCO’s limited edition shoes will also be worn by all LET and LPGA event staff. ECCO staff players likely participating in The Solheim Cup include Iben Tinning, Cecilia Ekelundh and Juli Inkster.

ECCO’s women’s collection – including several fully waterproof GORE-TEX® models and featuring fashion colours like purple glow, blue shadow, emerald and candy – are worn in competition by dozens of LET and LPGA Tour players. ECCO is also the official footwear sponsor of the LET. The 2005 International women’s collection includes 10 models in 40 colour combinations.

Providing innovative styling alongside unprecedented attention to detail and comfort, ECCO golf shoes are praised by Tour and everyday players throughout the world. All models feature ultra-soft, high-grade leather and extra cushion provided by PU-injected midsoles for superior shock absorption.
