Callaway’s new Xfer shoe line

Callaway’s new footwear offering, the Xfer line comes in Pro, Vibe and Sport models. With the new footwear, the company is focused on the three principles of foot control: alignment, stability, and traction.

The line’s technology is designed to allow a player to transfer maximum power throughout the swing, minimizing energy loss from either the foot sliding in the shoe or the shoe slipping on the turf.

And Callaway isn’t just toying with the center of gravity in its woods: All of the shoes in the Xfer line are designed to lower the foot’s center of gravity, allowing it to sit in a power powerful position.

Xfer Pro — $169

Pro

A minimized toe-to-heel height lowers the foot’s center of gravity.
An adjustable X Cage structure that’s built into the upper to hug the foot.
Superfeet Pro insole.
Xfer Dynamic Traction Technology, which combines built-in tractional elements with strategically placed Pro Flex PINS for better traction.
The Xfer Power Wall, which prevents foot slide and slippage during the swing, and absorbs energy during the loading and unloading of the swing.

Xfer Vibe — $149

Vibe

Vibe outsole with Xfertractional wall and Triangulated Traction technologies.
XStrek, a highly durable rubber compound for maximum grip.
High-performance Clarino microfiber upper.
Clarino microfiber X Cage overlay that hugs the foot.
Superfeet Pro insoles.
Secondary set of fashion laces.

Don’t know why Callaway can’t make golf shoes. These new ones don’t have enough spikes or arch support. Flop.

If those shoes don’t say ” I’m middle aged and have a slice” then nothing does

Spotted: Titleist GTS USWO headcovers

Published

Andrew Von Lossow

GolfWRX Tour Photographer Greg Moore was at Riviera Country Club this last week in Los Angeles for the U.S. Women’s Open. While browsing the photos, I spotted a recent major trend in headcovers. That is, the Titleist GTS headcover line expands the majors theme.

Seen on the bag of Natalia Guseva were the red, white, and blue Titleist GTS covers. This is the third time we have seen limited-edition Titleist major covers, the others being at the Masters and the PGA Championship. But with the launch of the GTS line back at the Texas Children’s Houston Open in March, this is the first time we have seen Titleist come out with major themed head covers for the season (driver headcovers through hybrids).

Check out some photos below.

At the Masters, we saw the familiar Masters green, white, and yellow. While the PGA Championship design was colors synonymous with the Philadelphia Eagles NFL team. This shows the season major drops continue full steam ahead for major OEMs. New opportunities for each major for designs and themes, and who knows, maybe a lucky spark for a player and a major championship for their resume. It gets the wheels turning for what major theme headcover you would keep on your bag for the whole season!
