Collaboration with Tour player supports endangered cheetah
Luxury Italian golf fashion brand Duca del Cosma, whose trend-setting golf shoes continue to shake up the industry, has unveiled the PASQUALLE animal print women’s golf shoe – a 100% waterproof super comfortable design that demonstrates the brand’s continuing commitment to African wildlife and protecting the endangered Cheetah.
The PASQUALLE, created as a special edition in collaboration with Ladies European Tour player and Duca del Cosma Ambassador Pasqualle Coffa, supports Cheetah Outreach, a South Africa-based organization dedicated to cheetah conservation.
This eye-catching shoe – crafted from premium full grain Italian Nappa Leather and onMicro microfibre suede – features striking cheetah print accents on the heel, kiltie and lacing areas as a statement in elegance, empowerment and conservation.
“We have a longstanding love for Africa and through worldwide sales of our popular cheetah print golf shoes, we have been able to raise vital awareness and funds to give back to nature conservation,” says Duca del Cosma Co-Owner Caroline van Wezel, who was involved in creating the shoe pattern designs and initiatives.
“It gives me great pride to link this important cause to our global brand with a good reach and play our part in supporting the endangered Cheetah.”
In addition to its striking design, the PASQUALLE features a waterproof bootie system with a gusseted tongue, onSteam breathable lining, Airplay 9 spikeless outsole, Comfort Last for optimal fit and minimal foot fatigue and INSITE ArchRelief insocks for superior support and comfort. The base color of the shoe is white, while the light beige/taupe print matches the unmistakable pattern of a Cheetah.
Duca del Cosma has long been dedicated to Cheetah conservation, introducing a limited-edition golf shoe in 2020 made with chic black lacquer leather and beige suede to symbolize the animal’s elegant appearance.
This was followed in 2022 with three women’s models – the KING CHEETAH WHITE, incorporating a bold print on the heel, and LENTE, featuring animal print markings on the upper and tongue, plus the eye-catching AVIVA – with a portion of the proceeds going towards saving the critically endangered animal.
Caroline visited the Cheetah Outreach facility with Pasqualle Coffa to see first-hand the organization’s groundbreaking efforts to support the rare species.
“We were blown away by the incredible work the team do at Cheetah Outreach, and with the help of more women golfers around the world, Duca del Cosma continues to make a lasting impact,” she said. “Women golfers will love to be associated with such a worthwhile enterprise while at the same time wearing a fashion-driven shoe that will turn heads for all the right reasons.”
