Adidas releases limited edition golf shoe capsule full of iconic designs

Check out the Superstar, Samba and Stan Smith golf shoes.

Adidas Golf has combined its street style with the technology of a golf shoe and has produced stunning silhouettes over the years.

This time Adidas has reinvented three of its popular models that feature a waterproof microfiber leather upper and other golf technology to promote better traction and stability.

The Superstar Golf was previously released in 2020 and it’s making its return in this capsule. There will be 3-stripes in the mid foot with its distinctive white rubber shell toe. The multi-colored outsole combines grey, silver green, collegiate burgundy and semi-solar orange colorways and includes six replaceable black cleats for traction. The Superstar lettering is debossed in the midfoot for a subtle style statement.

Some models don’t need to be reinvented for them to stay popular. Adidas’ Samba Golf shoe was originally introduced in 2022 and has been brought back. This classic shoe features an adiwear spikeless outsole with additional EVA cushioning in the midsole for support and stability. The outsole is all-white with the same multi-colored marbled colorway as the Superstar. The Samba logo was debossed in the midsole and has an all-grey upper with a dark brown heel tab.

The Stan Smith Golf shoe took the golf world by storm in 2021 and will be rounding out the limited edition capsule. The adiwear rubber spikeless outsole provides a clean and comfortable look and feel. The shoes can be universally worn on and off the course with PU cushioning in the midsole. The polished all-grey upper is contrasted by the same multi-colored marbled outsole with a debossed Trefoil and Stan Smith logo on the heel.

You can shop all three of these shoes starting today at Adidas.com.

Adidas has finally engineered its iconic Ultraboost sneaker as a golf shoe

The wait is almost over, sneakerheads.

The Adidas Ultraboost shoe took the footwear industry by storm in 2015. Golf sneaker enthusiasts have been patiently waiting for Adidas to release the golf version of the shoe and the wait is finally coming to an end.

The golf version of the shoe was inspired by the original Ultraboost silhouette with golf specific features to make this a performance shoe engineered to play all day.

[afflinkbutton text=”Shop Adidas Ultraboost golf shoe” link=”https://adidas.njih.net/c/1205322/264102/4270?subId1=Golfweek&subId2=Ultraboost%20product%20release&subId3=2023%20-%20April&c=affiliate_2021&af_reengagement_window=30d&af_channel=affiliates&pid=impactradius_int&is_retargeting=true&af_siteid=1205322&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.adidas.com%2Fus%2Fultraboost-spikeless-golf-shoes%2FGV6919.html”]

Including the Adiwear rubber outsole with its raised textured lugs for spikeless performance and all-day comfort. This outsole also features an anti-clogging polished surface to help keep grass and dirt out so that traction remains on point all day.

The upper was designed to repel water with its hydrophobic yarns and the Primeknit upper and microfiber leather toe overlay for additional stability.

The saddle is croc-textured and the TPU heel clip helps to provide lateral stability throughout the swing. The comfortable and updated EVA sockliner is engineered for golfers as its properties include anti-slip and moisture wicking functions. 

 “At the heart of Ultraboost is a silhouette that perfectly blends high-performance with streetwear fashion, and that’s something we wanted to bring to the course,” said Masun Denison, director of global footwear, Adidas Golf.

“Even though it’s been around for less than a decade, it’s such an icon within the brand, so we took our time to only add pieces that would benefit golfers while still keeping the DNA that make this shoe so great. We know there are golfers out there that have been waiting for this one, so we’re excited for them to finally experience it and we’re excited for them to finally experience it out on the course.” 

The shoe will be available in unisex sizing on Adidas.com and in select retailers on April 21.

Adidas reinvents a classic with limited edition Samba OG golf shoe

The OG Sambas are set to drop in November for the United States.

The Samba style shoe has been a classic of Adidas’ brand for decades. It was originally created for footballers when playing on icy and wet turf. Today, the shoe is a desired style among sneakerheads and athletes of all levels for a stylish, performance shoe.

Adidas Golf has introduced the limited edition Samba OG spikeless golf shoe with sought-after classic white and black colors. Last month, Adidas released a special edition version of the shoe in pastel colorways that sold quickly. This OG shoe is sure to fly off the shelves fast as well.

The pair is crafted from recycled materials, and the upper is made from synthetic leather with a one-year waterproof warranty. The EVA cushioning in the midsole provides all-day comfort while the spikeless outsole remains durable to withstand any surface from grass to concrete while maintaining the traction of the shoe.
