WINDHAM, NH – SQAIRZ, the industry leader in golf footwear technological advancements, has been named the Best Performing Golf Shoe in Sports Illustrated’s “Best Golf Shoes of 2025” list.
The honor was awarded to the SPEED2 LT, a flagship model in the brand’s innovative LT Series—marking the second consecutive year SQAIRZ has earned top-tier recognition from the publication.
In 2024, SQAIRZ was named Most Technologically Advanced Golf Shoe for its unmatched integration of ground force science and patented footwear design. This year’s award affirms the brand’s ongoing commitment to measurable performance, clinical testing, and results on the course.
As part of its annual testing, Sports Illustrated evaluated the leading golf shoes across comfort, traction, stability, and innovation. SQAIRZ’s SPEED2 LT model was selected as the top performer of the year, praised for its balance, energy return, and lightweight construction.
At just 421 grams, SQAIRZ’s award-winning SPEED2 LT showcases the best of the brand’s new LT platform: a lightweight innovation built for players who demand both speed and stability. Unlike other lightweight shoes that compromise structure for softness, the LT Series delivers tour-level balance and control in a featherweight design.

The SmartTraction cleat system delivers over 290 points of contact for uncompromising grip, while the dual-density NRG-Foam midsole provides responsive energy return from the first tee to the 18th green.
SQAIRZ’s Sta-Put lacing system keeps your foot secure through every phase of the swing.
