TRUE has always been known for its unique approach to natural footwear, and the brand has unveiled its first new zero drop, wide toe box platform golf shoe since the cult-classic Original model made waves in the market in 2017.

The new OG Cush is a first-of-its-kind cushioned, zero drop shoe that has been developed with feedback from OG wearers, Tour players, podiatrists and foot health experts for a healthy, ergonomic fit and feel. 

OG wearers will love it, while those looking for a zero drop, comfortable and stylish golf sneaker will also be big fans.

Made to keep your feet comfortable and healthy, the OG Cush builds on the much-loved OG shoe with new cushioning under the foot and a versatile cross life grip tread system for more coverage and traction on all surfaces. It's also water resistant so keeps your feet dry when the weather turns.

The beauty of the OG Cush is its versatility on and off the golf course. This modern shoe performs and looks just as good as it does on the street or in other walks of life, and the athletic-inspired midsole ensures it'll be your new favourite shoe to wear on the way to the course, at the course and once you've finished playing.

The term 'zero drop' refers to the position of your foot, with usual shoes featuring some kind of 'drop' where the heel is higher than your toes. Zero drop shoes keep your feet at the level as they were made to be in - barefoot - with your heel and toes in a natural position. 

Zero drop shoes have been proven to increase foot strength and flexibility while reducing injury in your ankles, knees, shins, hip and back. You should also notice more stability and balance when wearing a zero drop shoe - two things that are crucial when playing golf.
