Adidas Golf are to shock the world of the top end golf shoe in 2008 with the £150 Adidas Tour 360 LTD.
The new golf shoe has been created to target the luxury end of the golf shoe market by utilising advanced technologies and construction techniques.
And according to the men and women behind it the key to what separates it from competitive footwear is THiNTech, a revolutionary new low-profile shoe construction that brings the golfer closer to the ground for improved feedback, feel and stability to promote better ball-striking.
The TOUR360 LTD also offers the stabilising benefits that athletes expect from adidas Golf’s proprietary 360WRAP support system, a visible technology that encircles the foot to deliver a customised fit while increasing stability and leverage. Additional features include the POWERBAND CHASSIS with 10-cleat configuration for enhanced grip, 3D FIT FOAM® sock liner for added support and comfort.
“It’s said that golf is a game of inches, but we disagree,” said Dave Ortley, global director of footwear design for adidas Golf. “It’s a game of fractions of an inch. That’s the difference between a solid shot and a mis-hit. Tour professionals advised us that they wanted to get closer and more connected to the ground to increase the consistency and purity of their ball-striking. THiNTech incorporates a one-piece Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) sole that positions the foot closer to the ground creating a remarkably solid, responsive and stable shoe that makes hitting a golf ball a more tactile experience.”
The Adidas TOUR360 LTD is offered in three colours: mustang brown, black and running white/black, and in two widths, regular and wide and will be available at a recommended retail price of £150.
