Unfortunately, we're heading towards another winter of golf where waterproofs, thermals, woolly hats and gloves need to come back out of the wardrobe every time you tee it up for the next few months.
One aspect that can sometimes be overlooked when it comes to winter golf is the part that proper winter shoes can play in helping to protect you from the elements.
Italian brand Duca del Cosma has introduced a range of new boots and shoes as part of their 'Cool Season' collection, for golfers looking to play golf throughout the winter months and impress both on and off the course.
The new waterproof golf boot lineup offers two new lightweight designs with three winter-ready colourways applied to some of the brand's best-selling existing models. The full 'Cool Season' collection is made up of 18 different options in total.
Headlining the collection are the new Algarve women's and Castello men's boots, designed to deliver grip and stability in a lightweight model, using the same smart sole Airplay 15 technology as seen on the Davanti and Olivera shoes.
The main offering in the women's 'stylish' collection is the Algarve boot, designed for fashion-forward golfers who want a focus on functionality and performance across all ground conditions.
Featuring the Airplay 15 outsole with advanced nubs positioned to deliver stability and grips, the boot is available in both Black and Brown. It features a warm lining and breathable memory foam insole, ensuring feet stay dry and comfortable all day long.
The Francesca boot now features an eye-catching print and faux fur ankle cuffs, for a touch of luxury. It's now available in a Black colourway made from a shiny patent leather, with details throughout the design to provide an individual appearance.
The Lorenza boot has a soft premium Nappa leather outer along with striking details, to provide a modern option for fashion conscious golfers. The high-top boot has a crocodile print on the upper section, with a contrasting colour on the Airplay 9 outsole.
Offering a contemporary look is the Toscana boot, which utilises a Quick Lacing System for a snug fit, as well as a lightweight and recyclable Airplay 12 outsole for a refreshing feel. It's available in Aubergine, with a vibrant contrasting Yellow sole.
Rounding up the range of women's boots is the classic Sabrina, featuring a unique buckle and brogue-like design for a distinctive finish. It's perfect for winter thanks to a premium fleece lining, faux fur cuff and waterproof bootie system, ensuring your feet stay comfortable and dry.
Leading the men's boot range is the sporty Castello, suited to golfers seeking a warm design that is built to stand up to even the worst weather conditions.
There's a soft fleece lining as well as padding on the upper, to deliver thermal regulation in the coldest temperatures. The Airplay 15 technology provides high levels of grip for optimal performance during the swing.
Building on the existing success of the Pro Spike Bernardo shoe, the style is now available in an all-over Black colourway, making it the perfect option for golfers seeking spiked performance over the autumn and winter months. It includes a durable Airplay 6 outsole with strategically positioned Softspikes and extra traction nubs to deliver a solid stance and stability during the golf swing.
The contemporary Bologna features a Quick Lacing System to provide a comfortable fit with balanced pressure points, for extra performance and stability during the golf swing. It's optimised for all ground conditions thanks to a lightweight Airplay 12 outsole crafted from eco-rubber for a sustainable twist. It's available in Navy/Yellow or Black/Orange.
Finally, the classic Fontana style features an all-new Black colourway. The classic boot comes with a soft fleece lining for unrivalled comfort and added warmth, with a recyclable microfibre upper.
It is also available in Brown and Navy with contrasting soles.
