Adidas Powerband. Looks like another shoe coming out. Anybody know anything. Looks like it will look better than the 360 II with shorts. Comes in four colors...
Adidas Golf has introduced POWERBAND, a shoe created specifically to address the needs of the modern athlete and engineered for today's power game.
The POWERBAND Chassis establishes an unprecedented level of perimeter support that inspires a strong sense of self-assurance the instant the golfer settles into address.
It also uses Adiprene, a highly resilient material that manages energy for improved response in the footbed. This technology's fast reactive response provides immediate feedback to promote improved footwork for better weight transfer and balance. The harder the player pushes it, the harder it pushes back.
Finally, the GRIPZONE is an integrated footbed surface that locks the plantar surface of the foot firmly in place, creating a single, solid unit between the foot and shoe, promoting maximum control during the swing.
The POWERBAND's traction system is further enhanced by a proprietary cleat, specially designed by adidas Golf called Dynamic Traxion AC. The cleats have polished surfaces that diminish clogging and improve grip throughout the round.
"We worked closely with Jim Flick on the concept for this golf shoe in an effort to provide a performance advantage for the modern athlete in today's new power game," says Dave Ortley, director of global footwear for adidas Golf. "We've created the most solid and responsive swing platform in the sport of golf, enabling a new level of power, balance, and consistent ball-striking for the athlete."
Initially, the POWERBAND will be available in four color combinations starting in March 2007: running white/metallic silver/black; running white/titan metallic/black; running white/power red/metallic silver; black/lt. metallic silver/black. The W POWERBAND (for women) will also be introduced in March 2007 in three colorways: running white/metallic silver/running white; running white/metallic silver/posie; running white/black/key lime.
The manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) is $140 for both styles.
From the post above, "black/lt. metallic silver/black," is one of the styles. If you look at the colors for the others the first color seems to be the predominant hue so the answer appears to be yes.
Very nice looking shoes. I still think the Tour 360's look too much like soccer cleats. These would look much less dorky with shorts. I am glad that someone is making shoes that aren't saddles for the younger crowd.
Sweet looking shoes. I heard about these a couple months ago but couldn't find any info. Retail at 140. I think Adidas may have another winner here. I already have 7 pair of Adidas!! LOL
