Women's Waterproof Golf Shoes - MW 500 Navy

Robustness waterproof

The team has designed the MW500 around a liner with a waterproof membrane. It goes all around the shoe. We have also taken a lot of care with the details: for example, a "gutter" that links up the upper and the tongue so that water doesn't get inside the shoe.



The MW500 has been made waterproof by its construction and not by any artificial process. So it will be waterproof for its entire lifespan and not just for the first few uses.

A 3-part sole

When you know the importance of good footing in golf, designing a good sole is essential for offering golfers the best connection with the ground.



we have brought together grip, comfort, and robustness. In mild weather, the ground could be dry or wet. So the engineers have developed a 3-part sole:



The rubber part

The TPU part provides excellent grip on soft ground

The EVA midsole ensures exceptional comfort when walking.

Driven by swing constraints

Sophie, shoe product engineer, has worked with the Sportslab teams. They outlined the study that was to be implemented to specify, firstly, the pressure areas by level of intensity, and secondly, the direction of these stresses during a golf swing, for both the left and right foot.

Down to the smallest detail

So we have designed an asymmetric sole, where each spike has a specific role: in length, width, or height, no two are alike! They are also spread out across the sole's surface to match the pressure zones when walking or swinging. Working on the spikes helps to guarantee excellent grip while limiting wear.



The exterior sole is also perforated to give flexibility and save weight.

EVA comfort

The Inesis MW500 shoes are extremely comfortable. As we have seen, this comes from the flexibility and suppleness of the rubber outer sole, but also the cushioning of the EVA foam midsole. It is a component widely found in running shoes. It benefits from all the expertise of the running and trail brands at Decathlon, who developed exclusive EVA formulas.

A more dynamic upper

As they were given a blank slate to design the Inesis Grip Waterproof, this time, Erik and Tanguy were able to draw on the design of the previous version when designing the upper of the Inesis MW500.



The idea was to keep the identity codes for the Inesis Grip Waterproof while making the lines more dynamic and making it more comfortable to use. The forefoot is now made in one part to make it more supple. Then there's everything that you don't see.

Tested in all conditions

Having testers all across France and starting testing in the middle of winter let us push the MW500 to its limits by making it face more restricting conditions that what it was designed for. The MW500 also encountered a wide variety of courses and terrain: mud, sand, rain, dry terrain, etc. A truly versatile golf shoe in all conditions!
