“Our heritage and expertise in golf and outdoors really lends itself well to creating the first ever line of disc golf footwear,†explains Bite Footwear owner and founder Dale Bathum. “Disc golfers have similar needs when it comes to support, traction and comfort. We love being creative within the ‘good foot health’ niche and continuing to design footwear that meets the needs of avid outdoor enthusiasts.â€
