Adidas Golf athletes to wear new PrimeBlue Collection at The Players featuring apparel made from upcycled plastic waste
Adidas Golf athletes at this week’s Players Championship will wear select apparel and footwear made from upcycled plastic waste in the brand’s new PrimeBlue Collection.
The more sustainable collection is made from Adidas’ new PrimeBlue material made in part with Parley Ocean Plastic. This upcycled plastic waste is intercepted on remote islands, beaches, coastal communities and shorelines, preventing it from polluting the ocean. It is then turned into high-performance polyester yarn used in apparel and footwear.
Included in the unique PrimeBlue collection are two polos and shorts for men, and a sleeveless polo and skirt for women. Limited edition footwear for both men and women made from upcycled plastic waste is also featured in the collection, with the shoes designed from Adidas’ new CodeChaos silhouette – the latest footwear from the brand.
Adidas Golf’s PrimeBlue Collection is part of a larger Three Loop Strategy announced last month from the brand that outlines Adidas’ aim to end plastic waste. In the company’s spring/summer 2020 golf collection alone, 71 percent of the apparel and 75 percent of the footwear uses material made from recycled polyester.
The PrimeBlue collection is available now on adidas.com and at select retailers nationwide.

Jason Day on his recent switch into Srixon ZX5 and ZX7 MK II irons
Over the past year, equipment free agent Jason Day has played a number of different iron sets looking for his right match.
In May 2023, he was using a TaylorMade P770 4-iron to go along with a set of P7MC irons (5-PW).
In August 2023, he had switched to a set of TaylorMade P7TW irons (5-PW) to go with his P770 4-iron.
Then, in February 2024, he was into a full set of P760 irons (4-PW).
Now, Day has switched it all the way up, and he’s currently using a new set of Srixon ZX5 MK II long irons (3 and 4), and Srixon ZX7 MK II mid-to-short irons (5-PW).
On Tuesday at the 2024 RBC Heritage, Day told GolfWRX.com that he made the switch before the 2024 Texas Children’s Houston Open, because he was looking to reduce spin.
“For me, they spin a little bit less,” Day said. “They’re very good out of fairway bunkers, too. I haven’t played too much in the rough yet, so I still need to get an understanding of how the come out of the rough, but for me, it was all about spin control.”
“I had tested the previous model to these [Srixon ZX7’s], but I only had one club. And I was getting some inconsistent spinny with my previous irons, so I just decided to at least give them another shot. My biggest thing was to take spin off, because I was spinning it like crazy.”
The Srixon ZX7 MK II irons are known for producing low spin numbers, and pairing them with Day’s typical ultra-stiff True Temper X7 shafts make them certified spin killers.
If it’s spin he wanted to reduce, then Day may have found his match with the new Srixon irons.
