TACOMA, WASHINGTON – TRUE linkswear (TRUE), creator of ultra-comfortable, modern golf footwear designed for walking on and off the course, proudly names PGA TOUR player Andrew Putnam the newest TRUE brand ambassador. A native of Tacoma, Washington – where TRUE makes its headquarters – and a one-time winner on the PGA TOUR, Putnam is a natural choice to partner with the growing footwear and apparel brand.
A three-time All-American at Pepperdine, Putnam turned professional in 2011 and has won twice on the Korn Ferry Tour (2014 WNB Golf Classic, 2017 Panama Claro Championship) and at the PGA TOUR’s 2018 Barracuda Championship. The 36-year-old pro currently ranks 145th in the Official World Golf Rankings and finished 83rd in last season’s FedEx Cup Standings.
“Joining Team TRUE just felt like the perfect fit for me. Being from the Pacific Northwest, I’ve always admired how TRUE embraces comfort, performance, and a connection to the game that aligns with my approach to golf,” Putnam said. “Whether I’m competing on Tour or enjoying a casual round, I know I can rely on TRUE to keep me grounded and focused. I’m excited to represent a brand that truly values the walking golfer and puts innovation and quality at the forefront.”
Putnam recorded two top-10 finishes and seven top-25 finishes last season while collecting $2,054,544 in tournament earnings and surpassing the $15 million mark in career earnings. During the 2014-2015, Putnam and his brother Michael were the only siblings with playing privileges on the PGA TOUR.
“Andrew Putnam is undoubtedly the premier professional player from the Pacific Northwest, and we’re honored to have him join Team TRUE,” said TRUE Co-Founder and CEO Jason Moore. “More than just our local hero competing at the highest level on the world stage, Andrew has been a friend since childhood and his character, on and beyond the course, is rivaled by few. He’s a great example of what it means to live TRUE.”
Putnam’s fellow TRUE PGA TOUR Brand Ambassadors Joel Dahmen, Chris Kirk, Mark Hubbard, Taylor Montgomery, Oliver Wilson, Dylan Wu, company Co-Founder Ryan Moore and LPGA players Christina Kim, Madelene Sagstrom, and Sophia Popov.
Earlier in 2025, TRUE announced that it will release an exciting array of breakthrough golf footwear offerings, including the first two spiked models since the company relaunched in 2017, the LUX2 Player and the LUX2 Maven. The newest elevation of TRUE’s classic zero drop model, called the OG3 PRO, will also be released in 2025 along with a diverse lineup of golf shoes designed for performance, style, sustainability, and comfort with a modern, minimalist aesthetic.
TRUE is more than a shoe company; its genuine commitment is growing the brand within a community of golfers (newcomers to professionals) who embrace the shared pursuit of enjoying the walk. Each design is inspired by nature and designed to naturally enhance your body’s comfort and performance.
Embracing deep Pacific Northwest roots, TRUE footwear and apparel are engineered to hold up to the great outdoors. The brand’s technical performance gear is built to keep you outside, no matter the weather. TRUE crafts sustainably sourced, high-quality, long-lasting materials and works with ethical manufacturing partners that uphold high standards of humanity.
All TRUE footwear, wardrobe staples, gear, and accessories should be as versatile as one’s active lifestyle and so comfortable, they will want to wear them anywhere.
