Tour360 Boost Golf Shoes by Adidas Golf
Adidas Golf’s Tour360 is arguably the most well-known shoe line in all of golf. (Y.E. Yang famously wore a pair when he took down Tiger at the 2009 PGA Championship.) Now Adidas Golf has come out with its newest and most innovative shoe in the line: the new Tour360 Boost. It’s the first Tour360 to incorporate Adidas’s famed Boost technology and a full-length gripping outsole (rather than just a cluster in each shoe’s forefoot and heel). It also has a supportive foot arch and an S-curve heel to prevent blisters. A limited number of Tour360 Boost shoes are available now, but they’ll hit mass market on January 8, 2016 — in both Boa and traditional lace versions.
