adidas Golf Brings Incredibly Light adizero Footwear Line to Golf


New adizero Footwear Delivers Ultra-Light Performance to Help Golfers Finish Strong

(Carlsbad, CA) – adidas Golf, an industry leader in innovative, technologically advanced high-performance footwear, has announced the release of the new adizero golf footwear collection. Revolutionizing the fit, feel and shape of adidas Golf footwear, the new adizero line has been specially built on the principle that you start with zero and add only what is essential to perform, and deliver everything a golfer needs to finish strong when it’s needed the most.

“I’m always looking to add comfort and lightweight elements to my game, rounds on the course get long and it’s vital to have footwear that helps you perform,” says 8-time PGA Tour and 18 European Tour champion, Sergio Garcia, “the adizero golf shoe gives me the tools to stay light on my feet and feel closer to the ground through each step and swing.”

Available in four colorways beginning January 24, with the lightest model weighing in at only 10.6 ounces, the adizero Tour is 38% lighter than the TOUR360 ATV and touts adidas Golf’s  thinnest outsole ever at 1.2mm. It’s specially-designed with ultra-light materials to deliver tour-proven performance without sacrificing stability. The key is a new anatomical last and revolutionary SPRINTFRAME outsole that significantly reduces shoe weight while maintaining comfort and returning energy to each stride. The SPRINTWEB internal TPU layer provides unrivaled upper support during lateral movements, and a new microfiber leather SPRINTSKIN ensures a consistent fit with no water uptake and long lasting durability.

“adidas has set a company-wide mission to be radically light in every athletic category, and we are excited to announce we have delivered on that mission to the sport of golf, “ said Bill Price, Vice President of adidas Golf Footwear. “By using only what was absolutely essential in adizero, we are able to give golfers superior fit, super-lightweight comfort, and natural stability that results in less fatigue and more energy savings at the end of each round.”
