UA to give proceeds from limited-edition Spieth One shoes to new First Tee Mexico City

Published

on

In January, Jordan Spieth embarked on a global tour to promote the launch of his Under Armour Spieth One golf shoes that became available to the public on March 1. The tour started in Tokyo and four stops later it ended in Mexico City.

The Mexico City stop is special because along with launching the Spieth One shoe, the event also helped launched the First Tee Mexico City, which has a charitable mission to teach children the game of golf and its values. As part of the event, Spieth gave a clinic to nearly 30 youth attendees, providing advice on warm-up routines, tips and techniques.

“I’m really proud that Under Armour shares my values of supporting junior golf, which is a big part of the Jordan Spieth Family Foundation,” Spieth said in a Q&A at the event. “It’s really special to have a chance to share with the juniors and be a part of this event.”

Under Armour will outfit the First Tee Mexico City, the company said in a press release, and will also give proceeds from the sales of the Mexico Limited-Edition Spieth One shoes to the First Tee Mexico City.

    Not to sound old but shoes seemed to be super important in basketball and maybe track and football So Under Armor is trying to get this going in golf? And maybe the Jordan shoes are also trying to get something going. Shoot, I am old for griping about this but to milenials really care about edgy shoes? I thought they were busy churning butter and wearing flannel trying to look like loggers.

New Level launches new 480-DB irons, blending performance and forgiveness

Published

on

New Level has been making some really good golf equipment since the company started up in 2018. Offering irons that are more geared towards the better player, precision has been a fundamental philosophy for New Level in creating irons and wedges.

The 480 line of irons has been the flagship of the brand, and the newest member of that team is the 480-DB iron that is now open to pre-orders. A new cavity design is what the whole 480 line is about, and the 480-DB takes advantage of that with added ball speed and a larger sweet spot.

For players who require their irons to offer the best feel, rest assured the DB is a fully forged (from 1020 carbon steel) one-piece golf club. No multi-piece, hollow design with this iron.

While the 480-DB is the next generation of the popular 902-OS, New Level didn’t follow the current trend in golf by chasing distance with the new iron. They actually weakened the lofts on the 480-DB with the spec sheet showing a 33-degree 7-iron and 45-degree pitching wedge. These lofts allow the DB to have less offset while still offering consistent distance off the face.

A traditional design was also at the forefront of the new irons to make sure that golfers with an eye for detail can look down at them with confidence that they will perform under any condition.

 

A weight low in the back cavity will allow their master club builders to dial in the perfect weight for the golfer, no matter the length or shaft being used. New Level believes that the new 480-DB is one of the most forgiving one-piece forged irons on the market today. A pre-worn leading edge on the sole should get through the turf quickly and with reduced digging for better turf interaction.

You can pre-order the New Level 480-DB right now on the New Level website.
