Adidas lightens up with new adizero one

Published

on

Building on the success of the adizero Tour in 2013, Adidas golf has introduced the new generation of adizero technology with the adizero one. The 2014 version of adizero is 10 percent lighter than the 2013 Tour shoe, weighing in at less than 10 ounces, and has more stability than its predecessor.

Adidas created a one-piece fused upper on the adizero one that bonds together five layers, which is said to help create a glove-like fit to the foot. To create additional stability, the outsole utilizes a seven-cleat configuration, reduced from 10 cleats in the adizero Tour.

Above: The adizero one’s 7-cleat performance layout on the outsole measures 20 percent wider than the adizero Tour, but it is lighter and thinner. 

The proprietary center cleat, using CenTraXion technology that provides grip and stability, was developed through feedback from adidas’ tour professionals and biomechanical analysis from the company’s engineers.

“When I first saw the adizero one, I couldn’t wait to get them on my feet,” said Jason Day, adidas golf tour staffer since 2006.  “With the low profile design, I can really feel the ground beneath my feet and the power generated from my swing is definitely noticeable. I’m excited to wear these on tour.”

The adidas Tour II is also being released for women, featuring much of the same in technology and design as the adizero one. The Tour II has a streamlined six-cleat layout with thintech low-profile design, and is available in retail stores on Jan. 23 in three colorways at $120.

Also coming out on Jan. 23 for both men and women is the adizero sport II (pictured above), featuring a lightweight mesh upper with climaproof protection and a two-year warranty. The spikeless shoe with “pure motion” technology has a “sprint frame” that enhances flexibility and comfort. The sport II is available in five colorways for men at $130 and six colorways for women at $110.

    I noticed with my old Adizero shoes that they really chewed up the greens. It seemed like all the support landed on the two rear spikes that really made deep impressions on the greens. During practice I would miss puts that would deflect off the impressions on the green. I think Nike has a better product in the Lunar Control.

    adidas/TM design team, please have a look at the new range of Footjoy shoes. I am not talking onout the Icons but more of the spikeless line. game-changing golf shoe innovation with classical stylish twist. I will buy one pair to ware off course. FJ and Ecco are by far the most innovative shoe makers in past two years. Adidas shoes did look half decent back in 2010/11. What is happening? Don’t let the Germans over engineer the shoe and get some Brits to do the designs like it happens with BMW cars.

    i’m just gonna keep my old adizero’s these look like they took a step backwards from last years shoe. the 10 spike was a big selling point and made them look mean. now they just look like any other shoe.

    Im sorry but these are basically their f50 soccer cleats with golf spikes instead of studs, poor from adidas.

      Yep,

      No creativity. Simply reboxing a current design.

    Hopefully they fixed the ‘spikes falling out’ problem in the new shoes. I understand that the original shoes had terrible problems with the spikes falling out. Looks like they added molded spikes too to reduce the stress on the spikes so hopefully these are better. Look ok, but I’ll wait to see them in person.

      Unfortunately they have not fixed the ‘spikes falling out’ problem. I had 2 spikes fall out in the second round I played wearing a new pair of the Adizero One. I will be taking them back and swapping them for something else.

      even if you were in the market for shoes you wouldn’t HAVE to buy them. You act as if they would be your only choice.
      I know it’s tough for some people to just be quiet when they have nothing else to say though……. me included.

    I used to love addidas golf shoes. I have been very disappointed with the new releases over the last couple years. Their golf shoes look more like soccer shoes.

    Are these shoes using same cleats as Adipure or Adizero Tour?

    Gotta agree they look like football boots. Plus can’t help thinking these minimalist shoes are going to start causing stress injuries in some golfers, as some of the minimalist running shoes did when they first came out, if your used to more support watch out.

    Look so bad… Ouff. But maybe I would buy it for my kids for soccer. #flop

    Adidas shoes look more and more like socker/football shoes. No more Adidas shoes for me – not that i bought any in recent years. last pair were the tour 360 1.0 but those are retired and replaced by FJs.
