Puma releases new Phantomcat Nitro golf shoe to be worn by Rickie Fowler

It’s Puma’s most advanced shoe yet.

The new Phantomcat Nitro golf shoe has been released, and it’s Puma’s most advanced shoe yet.

This shoe looks good, but the technology behind the Phantomcat takes it to a whole new level. The new nitrogen infused foam in the heel helps give an improved rebound and lightweight response as you walk. Say goodbye to squished toes, Puma has restructured its toe box with an anatomically shaped last providing a better fit for more golfers.

In addition, the new Flexspike design provides an upgraded traction system. Flexspike was engineered to increase surface contact with the ground with its uniquely shaped cleats. These cleats provide a greater grip in the ground and better weight distribution, making these shoes feel lighter and more comfortable. The Flexspike technology allows the foot to move in all different directions as you swing and walk throughout the day.

The Phantomcat Nitro includes a 1-year waterproof guarantee with its full grain leather uppers. The TPU outsole is made up of a molded heel panel and secondary traction elements to help lock the foot into place.

“The Phantomcat Nitro is our most advanced shoe to date,” said Andrew Lawson, Senior PLM Footwear at Puma Golf. “Nitro foam and Flexspike technology gives the golfer a combination of traction and comfort like never before. The feedback we’ve received from our Tour Athletes has been fantastic and I can’t wait for golfers to try this shoe.” 

These shoes will be worn by some of your favorite tour players such as Rickie Fowler, Gary Woodland, Justin Suh and JJ Spaun.

Ecco Golf is always searching for innovative ways to enhance its golf footwear line and recently released the new Ecco Biom Tour, which features all of the brand’s signature technology.

The new shoe has Ecco’s Biom Natural Motion technology with a spiked sole design. The Pivix spikes have additional grooves on the outsole to ensure traction and stability throughout the swing.

Ecco Golf, Erik van Rooyen introduce signature edition Biom H4 shoe

Ecco Golf and Erik van Rooyen have had a successful partnership for years.

Ecco Golf and Erik van Rooyen have had a successful partnership for years, and they have come together to redesign and showcase van Rooyen’s passion for fashion and music through the new Biom H4 shoe.

Last summer, the duo launched the first edition of EVR’s signature shoe. The revamped design is equally striking and eye-catching with hints of the South African’s love for guitar, his iconic jogger pants and his famous mustache.

“I’m very excited to once again join forces with Ecco Golf to create another signature edition style,” said van Rooyen. “The previous version that we created together was super cool, and I received plenty of compliments out on tour. I didn’t think it would be possible to top those, but with this new model I think we’ve done exactly that.”

The Biom H4 features an updated leather upper, specifically around the toe area to produce a slimmer look, while the tongue has been entirely redesigned to produce a more ergonomic shape that fits more comfortably to the foot.

This shoe continues to feature the Biom 2.0 last and the Biom Natural Motion Technology to helps the foot move naturally, close to the ground and forms like a second skin around the foot.

The Ecco MTN Grip outsole includes three sections to provide a blend of traction, stability and rotational support. Ecco’s popular Fluidform Direct Comfort Technology allows for a high level of cushioning and rebound support.

From the outsole to the midsole, the shoe features X-Tensa technology, which connects the TPU element on the side of the Biom H4 with the lace system to enhance lateral stability.

The Biom H4 is 100 percent waterproof and breathable using Ecco’s Gore-Tex technology that keeps feet dry and comfortable in all conditions. 

“Anyone that’s seen me play knows that I really enjoy being different and innovative on the golf course, and it’s awesome that the Ecco Golf team allows me to reflect that in my signature edition styles. To be able to create my own shoe is a real honor, and Biom H4 is such a great model to do it with.”

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 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.
