Salient DG Spec 1 Shoe

How heavy will the shoes be?

Cool that you mentioned that. I was going to add that I think there is a need for 2 separate disc golf shoes. It would be nice to slip on basically the same shoe yet each have completely different treads. Also that twist design you use on the Salient Discs logo would look cool on the shoes. Look forward to the release.

I can answer that as a I have the specs in front of me 11 ounces currently with the combo of napa leather, cambrelle, mesh and rubber sole.

I may have missed it, but is there a price point for these shoes yet?

The exact price will be set this week however I can say it will most likely be less than $99.

I wil take a free pair of shoes and throw frisbees while wearing them. Or Discs. And then Ill tell the internet about it. Also it's hot here. Hottest city in the country.

Ever been to 29 Palms, CA?

As I offered earlier, I will put the shoes through the ringer test...Tyler State Park, Nocamixon and all the courses through most of PA. If they can withstand those courses they can handle any course. Just let me know if you need testers.

 

[SalientDiscs]

Thank you for the offer, however we have tested the shoes and we are happy with the outcome.

Why am I not surprised these hideous shoes are associated with Physical Flight. I'm sure they're totally functional, comfortable, durable, etc ... But just like the bags, please hire a professional designer because your products are really ugly. That Rhyno logo thing looks like clip art with bubble letters that some kid drew.

I'm not a big fan either, but that's uncalled for. At least these guys are trying to add products made for this game. Sorry, not cool at all.

We are happy with the overall look and feel of the DG spec 1. Some of the logos will change in size however the overall shape of the shoe will not change.

Ordering for the DG Spec1 will commence this weekend with pics and features of our disc golf specific shoe.

What you can look forward to is teebox friendly 1 piece rubber sole, full napa leather surround, dual rubber/synthetic toe cap with mesh and durable cambrelle lining giving you breathability with water resistance.

Price is $95 (look for more details on the web page later this week)
Sizes 9-12

With a lower price point we would out price ourselves and leave no room for future runs of shoes. As the only disc golf specific manufacturer that makes disc golf shoes the price is very fair especially for the quality of the shoe and the fact all other brands with disc golf shoes are discontinued.

Be rest assured that we will stand by our product which is the advantages of buying from a DG specific company.

Shipping will most likely be $10

This is a pre-order and we expect to sell out rather quickly, only returns that will be accepted are manufacturer defects on our end. Warranty will be outlined on the website once we start selling them.

$95 is a pretty fair price for shoes specifically made for disc golf. That is assuming these are high quality and useful shoes(no offense Salient). In other "hobby" sports/activities getting high quality shoes build specifically for your activity is going to cost more than $95.

Will you have larger than size 12 eventually? I fall in that 12.5-13 range depending on the width and manufacturer. Falling right outside my range!!!

 

[mashnut]

One more vote for some larger sizes, I usually wear a 12.5 wide or a 13 depending on the fit of the shoe.

 

[thugjitsu]

Good tennis shoes are a $120, BUT if you wear them out in 6 months or less they send you a brand new free pair no questions asked.

And where do you buy your shoes from?

The sizes all run about a 1/2 size big.

No offense on the quality. We would not produce a shoe or bag that wasn't quality.

We will offer size 13-14 on subsequent runs.
