I think tourspecgolf.com might be able to get them. You should send them a message. Shingo's apparel are all mad JDM! OnOff cowboy hat and Dance with Dragon outfit FTW!

www.tourspecgolf.com WILL have them available. They're not even available in Japan yet. Check there in a couple weeks and they should be up for sale.

Got some bad news.

I spoke to Asics here in Japan and there is no scheduled release for Shingo's Asics in the near term.

The shoes he was wearing at the Masters were prototypes only.

I do not think they were expecting this much fanfare and attention.

Hopefully this attention they have received will speed up their move for these shoes to go retail but from the sound of what they are saying it will not be for quite some time.

A friend of mine is an Asics shoe rep and he told me he has a pair of the black and a pair of the white coming soon. Asics is releasing in Japan first. Asics wants to sell the shoes through Dicks sporting goods or golf galaxy. When he gets them in I will post some pictures

They looked pretty good in person. I think they look better than Puma's. I'll probably get a pair when available.

Prototype colors for Shingo. Pretty wild!

According to this website, 3 colors will be sold in Japan this winter.

I suspect that if they are being sold in the US that they will be available in larger sizes.
