Adidas Tour360 Boost: The culmination of a decade of golf shoe innovation

Published

on

“What is this?” Jason Day said.

On his face was the huge, genuine smile that golf fans became used to seeing at the end of the 2015 PGA Tour season. And on this Tuesday after the Tour Championship, how could he be anything but smiles?

In his last five tournaments, Day had won his first major championship, two FedEx Cup Playoffs events and became the No. 1-ranked golfer in the world. He was technically working, but standing next to Sergio Garcia and Dustin Johnson, the moment felt more like a Tuesday practice round with friends than an Adidas photo shoot.

The topic of conversation among the top-ranked golfers was the items in front of them, Adidas’ Tour360 golf shoes. Day was holding the original Tour360, now a decade old, and couldn’t help but laugh.

“They look like bowling shoes,” he said. “And how heavy they are.”

Off camera but within earshot was Masun Denison, who was on the team that developed on the original Tour360’s. Now the director of Adidas’ Golf footwear, he couldn’t help but interject. Denison was far from offended, but he made sure to say — loud enough so that Day could here — that the shoes were “revolutionary in their day.”

He had a point.

Ten years ago, athletic-styled golf shoes were an oddity. Now they’re the norm, at least partly thanks to the Tour360.

The latest version of the Tour360, officially called the Tour360 Boost, has similarities to the original model, but many more differences. One of the biggest changes is the addition of the namesake “Boost” technology.

Adidas’ Tour360 Boost golf shoes use Boost in both the heel and forefoot of the shoe.

Boost solves an important design dilemma — one that most golfers likely don’t even know exists in their footwear. Shoe designers have always had to choose between making a shoe more comfortable by using softer materials and making it more responsive by using firmer materials – which of course, reduce comfort.

Boost is a special, lightweight foam material made up of thousands of pressurized pellets that compress to provide softness, but then “rebound” toward a golfer’s foot to improve responsiveness.

The “holes” on the outsole of the shoe allow the Boost material room to expand when the foot presses down, and then “rebound” back toward a golfer’s foot.

Last year, Day, Garcia and Johnson transitioned into Adidas’ Boost technology with the company’s AdiPower Boost golf shoe, which integrated the material into the heel. With the Tour360 Boost, the material is used both in the heel and forefoot of the shoe.

As the cameras started rolling, Garcia and Day were still chatting with Denison about the original Tour360, but Johnson’s attention was focused on another shoe.

“I loved these,” he said, looking at the black-and-white Tour360 LTD.

Unlike the most-recent Tour360 models, the Tour360 LTD’s were made of a premium, full-grain leather, and they received unanimous praise from the three golfers for their looks.

“I think it was the first really sharp, sporty-looking shoe we had,” Garcia said.

The Tour360 LTD also had a special place in each of the golfer’s memories. Johnson won his first PGA Tour event – the 2008 Turning Stone Resort Championship – while wearing them. Jason Day remembered wearing them to make a hole-in-one at the same event. Garcia wore them to win The Players Championship in 2008.

The Tour360 Boost shoes are waterproof, and are constructed with premium, full-grain leather.

With the Tour360 Boost, Denison and his team chose to return to the leather construction to pay tribute to the history of the iconic golf shoe. Another homage, however, maintaining the Tour360’s standout feature, is significant to the design because it adds better performance.

The original Tour360’s were given their name because of their “360Wrap,” an independent saddle that cradles the mid-portion of the foot. It adds stability, but improves fit, too. Since it’s connected to the lacing system, the 360Wrap adapts to the shape of a golfer’s foot, moving outward to accommodate golfers with wider feet, or inward for golfers with narrower feet. The 360Wrap works the same way in the Tour360 Boost, but there are two key differences.

2016_TOUR360_BOOST_TorsionTunnel_Detail

The Tour360’s “Torsion Tunnel.”

For one, Adidas designers built what looks like a bridge (Adidas calls it a Torsion Tunnel) underneath the 360Wrap. Previous Tour360 models had a split sole, or a gap between the heel and forefoot.

In the past two-to-four years, Denison said Adidas has learned an incredible amount about traction through studies that not only measure a golf shoe’s dynamic movements, but the movement of a golfer’s feet inside golf shoes. One of the biggest takeaways from those studies was that a split sole was not optimal for maximum traction.

Dustin Johnson, Sergio Garcia and Jason Day look through the Torsion Tunnel.

“To get the most grip possible, we couldn’t have a gap in the middle,” Denison said. “We knew that if we connected the heel and forefoot, we would get addition performance.”

The mission was on to keep the 360Wrap, but find a way to maximize traction. The result was the bridge, which adds rigidity that improves the stability of the shoe, but still allows the heel and forefoot to move independently. And true to its original intent, the bridge’s “nubs” create better traction, between 10-12 percent according to an Adidas study.

2016_TOUR360_BOOST_360Wrap_Detail

The “bridge” of the Tour360 includes traction elements to improve friction.

The other new feature of the 360Wrap is specific to the “Boa” model of the shoe. The Tour360 Boost is offered in two models – one with laces ($200) and one with a lace-less Boa system ($230), which uses cables that tighten and loosen the shoe through an adjustable dial.

The Boa cables actually weave through the 360Wrap in the new shoes, technology that Adidas co-engineered with Boa, and use a special dial positioned on the shoe tongue. The dial can make micro adjustments, offering 1 millimeter of tension adjustment per click, which allows golfers to lock in in the perfect fit.

Day had just finished changing his outfit for a television commercial when I caught up with him to talk about the new shoes. As he came out of the golf-cart-turned-dressing-room to put on a pair of Tour360 Boost shoes, which happened to have laces, he told me how much he liked Adidas’ new Boa system.

“I don’t have to tie my shoes anymore,” Day said. “I’m pretty finicky about footwear and how tight it should be.”

Last year, Day started wearing the AdiPower Boost shoes with Boa regularly, including during his PGA Championship win. He revealed that he had worn roughly 20 different pairs of shoes – 10 black and 10 white — throughout the year “to keep things looking fresh,” changing shoes the most during his winning spree.

“I was pretty much a nobody before this year,” Day said in a moment of humility.

Garcia and Johnson disagreed. Few golfers are better statesman for the game than Day, who told me he signs the shoes that he no longer plans to wear and gives them away to fans.

As the photo shoot came to a close, Garcia was asked what he thought of the older Tour360 shoe models. He was the most complimentary of the three golfers, maybe because he remembered what it was like to play a professional golf schedule in shoes that were far less advanced than even the 10-year-old Tour360’s.

“I won [PGA Tour] tournaments before the Tour360’s came out,” Garcia reminded them.

At the time of Garcia’s first PGA Tour win, the 2001 MasterCard Colonial, Day was 13 years old. Johnson was 16.

The Tour360 Boost use an S-curve heel, designed to mimic the shape of an achilles tendon to improve comfort.

With all that goes into modern golf footwear, it seemed fair to ask Garcia if shoe technology had changed the way he played. Did he swing harder, or hit different shots?

He thought about it for a few moments before he responded.

“No,” Garcia said. “I’ve always tried to play as aggressively as I can.”

I pictured the famous shot he hit, eyes closed, with his ball dangerously close to the base of a tree at the 1999 PGA Championship at Medinah. Sergio has always been Sergio. No shoe would change that. What Garcia said next summed up what Adidas is really celebrating with the Tour360 Boost and its 10-year celebration of the golf shoe line.

“I’ve been lucky to be with Adidas for 16, 17 years now.” Garcia said. “I’ve never felt like I was at a disadvantage.”

History says golfers will feel the same way about Adidas’ golf shoes 10 years from now.

    I believe the Adidas Adipower Boost also had the (boost foam) in the forefoot but it was not exposed like these are. The sport version has the boost only in the heel (which I own and really like) and TPU in the forefoot. So technically last year had a full boost sole also. Good write up none the less.

      Should say EVA not TPU in the forefoot.

    I have a pair of running shoes with boost and my golf shoes have boost now that they are affordable. Both are extremely comfortable. These look awesome and can’t wait till the end of next year when I can afford them.

    I’m not a fan of how the WRX home page was one big ad for these. From top to bottom it was: banner ad, article, another ad right beneath- all for these shoes.

    I thought I read where Sergio is switching to Titliest this off season? Doubt that Adidas would put him in a commercial if he was switching manufacturers. If he still switches I’d be shocked after this. 360 shoes look pretty good, but the price is getting too high for me. I’ve been playing 360 models since they came out but will have to wait for the price to come down on these.

    Poor adidas, no matter how hard they try, they come up short on everything they do. It’s amazing how Nike can come out with good looking products over and over again and adidas just can’t seem to do it. These shoes look like they were made in 2002. It’s like adidas is ignoring the market.

      Those look super nice. Classy, understated. Nike is all about unnecessary bling which doesn’t suit everyone.

      Dec 11, 2015 at 8:20 am

      I would absolutely wear these. I think they look good. I also remember salivating over previous models and work a pair of AdiComfort shoes for at least 3 seasons. There’s nothing wrong with what Adidas is doing. However, I do wear FootJoy now, but that has more to do with what’s been available in my area.

      I have to disagree. I have worn both brands and adidas is by far and away more comfortable and durable. And they look good.

      Dec 11, 2015 at 11:05 am

      Sorry Dan, but giant toe swooshes on vinyl isn’t what every golfer is looking for, modern or not. These things look amazing and if they feel half as good as anything else with Boost, Nike are in for it…

Did Rory McIlroy inspire Shane Lowry’s putter switch?

Published

on

Editor’s note: This is an excerpt from a piece our Andrew Tursky originally wrote for PGATour.com’s Equipment Report. Head over there for the full article.

The timing of Lowry’s putter changeup was curious: Was he just using a Spider putter because he was paired with McIlroy, who’s been using a Spider Tour X head throughout 2024? Was Lowry just being festive because it’s the Zurich Classic, and he wanted to match his teammate? Did McIlroy let Lowry try his putter, and he liked it so much he actually switched into it?

Well, as it turns out, McIlroy’s only influence was inspiring Lowry to make more putts.

When asked if McIlroy had an influence on the putter switch, Lowry had this to say: “No, it’s actually a different putter than what he uses. Maybe there was more pressure there because I needed to hole some more putts if we wanted to win,” he said with a laugh.

To Lowry’s point, McIlroy plays the Tour X model, whereas Lowry switched into the Tour Z model, which has a sleeker shape in comparison, and the two sole weights of the club are more towards the face.

Lowry’s Spider Tour Z has a white True Path Alignment channel on the crown of his putter, which is reminiscent of Lowry’s former 2-ball designs, thus helping to provide a comfort factor despite the departure from his norm. Instead of a double-bend hosel, which Lowry used in his 2-ball putters, his new Spider Tour Z is designed with a short slant neck.

“I’ve been struggling on the greens, and I just needed something with a fresh look,” Lowry told GolfWRX.com on Wednesday at the 2024 Wells Fargo Championship. “It has a different neck on it, as well, so it moves a bit differently, but it’s similar. It has a white line on the back of it [like my 2-ball], and it’s a mallet style. So it’s not too drastic of a change.

“I just picked it up on the putting green and I liked the look of it, so I was like, ‘Let’s give it a go.’”

Webb Simpson equipment Q&A: Titleist’s new 2-wood, 680 blade irons, and switching to a broomstick Jailbird

Published

on

With seven career wins on the PGA Tour, including a U.S. Open victory, Webb Simpson is a certified veteran on the course. But he’s also a certified veteran in the equipment world, too. He’s a gearhead who truly knows his stuff, and he’s even worked closely with Titleist on making his own custom 682.WS irons.

On Wednesday at the 2024 Wells Fargo Championship, I caught up with Simpson to hear about his experience with Titleist’s new prototype 2-wood, how Titleist’s 680 Forged irons from 2003 ended up back in his bag, and why he’s switching into an Odyssey Ai-One Jailbird Cruiser broomstick putter this week for the first time.

Click here to read our full story about Simpson’s putter switch on PGATOUR.com’s Equipment Report, or continue reading below for my full Q&A with Simpson at Quail Hollow Club on Wednesday.

See Webb Simpson’s full WITB from the 2024 Wells Fargo Championship here

GolfWRX: It seems like you’ve been a little all over the place with your irons in the past six months or so, and now going back to the 680’s. Is that just a comfort thing? What’s been going on with the irons?

Webb Simpson: Titleist has been so great at working with me, and R&D, on trying to get an iron that kind of modernizes the 680. And so the 682.WS took the T100 grooves, but kinda took the look and the bulk and the build of the 680’s into one club. They’re beautiful, and awesome looking. I just never hit them that well for a consistent period of time. It was probably me, but then I went to T100’s and loved them. I loved the spin, the trajectory, the yardage, but again, I never went on good runs. Going through the ground, I couldn’t feel the club as well as with the blade. So last week, I’m like, ‘Alright. I’m gonna go back more for…comfort, and see if I can get on a nice little run of ball striking.’

So that’s why I went back.

A post shared by GolfWRX (@golfwrx)

OK, that makes sense. I know you had done some 2-wood testing recently. Is that in the bag right now?

It’s like day-by-day. I used it at Hilton Head every day. Valero, I used it one round. And this week, me and my caddie will do the book every morning, and if it’s a day where we think we need it, we’ll just put it in and take the 3-wood out. I love it because it’s a super simple swap. Like, it doesn’t really change much.

Yeah, can you tell me about that club? I mean, we don’t really know anything about it yet. You know? I haven’t hit it or anything, obviously.

It has grooves like a 3-wood. Spin is perfect. And it’s honestly, like, everything is in the middle of a 3-wood and driver number. Trajectory, spin, carry, all of it. So, a Hilton Head golf course is almost too easy to talk about because, you know, there, so many holes are driver 3-wood.

Valero, our thinking was we had two par-5’s into the wind, and we knew that it would take two great shots to get there in two. So instead of hitting driver-driver, we just put it in. And I used it on those holes.

Hilton was a little easier because it was off-the-tee kind of questions. But Colonial will be a golf course where, you know, there’s a lot of driver or 3-woods. It’s kind of like a backup putter or driver for me now. I’ll bring it to every tournament.

So it’s, like, in your locker right now, probably?

Well, it would be. It’s in my house [because Webb lives near by Quail Hollow Club, and is a member at the course.] It’s in the garage.

Oh, yeah, that’s right. Do you know what holes you might use it out here if it goes in play? 

Potentially 15, depending on the wind. Second shot on 10. Could be 14 off the tee. The chances here are pretty low (that he’ll use the 2-wood). But, like, Greensboro would be an awesome club all day. I’m trying to think of any other golf courses.

There’s plenty that it’ll be a nice weapon to have.

It’s interesting, the wave of 2-woods and mini drivers. Like, it’s just really taken off on Tour, and all the companies have seemed to embrace it.

Yeah. The thing I had to learn, it took me, like, at least a week to learn about it is you gotta tee it up lower than you think. I kept teeing it up too high. You need it low, like barely higher than a 3-wood. And that was where I got optimal spin and carry. If you tee it up too high, you just don’t get as much spin and lose distance, I don’t know if that’s just a mini driver thing.

And you obviously have a Jailbird putter this week. What spurred that on?

Inconsistent putting. I’m stubborn in a lot of ways when it comes to my equipment, but I have to be open minded – I just hadn’t putted consistently well in a while. And I’m like, ‘Man, I feel my ball-striking coming along. Like I feel better; for real, better.’

If I can just get something in my hands that I’m consistent with. Being on Tour, you see it every year, guys get on little runs. I can put together four to five tournaments where I’m all the sudden back in the majors, or in the FedExCup Playoffs. You can turn things around quick out here. I’m like, ‘Man, whatever’s going to get me there, great.’

My caddie, David Cook, caddied for Akshay at the Houston Open and he putted beautifully. Then, I watched Akshay on TV at Valero, and he putted beautifully. And, I’m like, ‘I’m just going to try it.’

I’ve never tried it for more than a putt or two, and I just ordered what Akshay uses. It was pretty awkward at first, but the more I used it, the more I’m like, ‘Man, it’s pretty easy.’ And a buddy of mine who’s a rep out here, John Tyler Griffin, he helped me with some setup stuff. And he said at Hilton Head, he wasn’t putting well, then tried it, and now he makes everything. He was very confident. So I’m like, ‘Alright, I’ll try it.’”

And you’re going with it this week?

Hundred percent.

Alright, I love it. Thank you, I always love talking gear with you. Play well this week. 

Thanks, man.

GolfWRX member testing: L.A.B. Golf DF3 putters

Published

on

Like L.A.B. Golf’s larger DF 2.1 putter, the new DF3 is “fully automatic.” That means golfers will get the full experience of DF3 wanting to guide itself on the correct path on the way back and through. This is possible thanks to L.A.B. Golf’s patented Lie Angle Balance technology. The technology creates true zero-torque putters that stay square by themselves. Golfers can trust that L.A.B. Golf putters will return to square without any need for manipulation.

How we choose our testers

GolfWRX staff evaluates each entry against the criteria laid out in the testing thread to determine the best fit for each specific product — For example, if a game-improvement iron is being tested, game-improvement iron-playing golfers will be considered.

Overall tester feedback

Overall, our testers were impressed with the ease and precision of the remote-fitting process with its custom options. On the whole, even those skeptical about the DF3’s shape enjoyed the ease of alignment and consistent delivery of putter to ball, with some testers pointing to an initial “adjustment period.” Those who had played previous L.A.B. creations universally praised the improved feel of the DF3.

What our members said

@jasman29

“I try to take a lighter grip typically when I putt or at least when I am putting my best. I can do that for the most part BUT it is on the shorter putts lately where the grip gets a little tighter at times. The one thing I tried to focus on, after watching some videos Sam has putt online about how to putt with his putters, was to not feel pressure in my thumbs during the stroke and let the putter swing more freely. When you do this, this putter just wants to rock back and forth. Let the putter/tech do the work for you without your brain trying to telling to manipulate the face in any way. It was a different feeling not having that “torque” working against your hands in the feel of the stroke.”

@rooski

“At this point, I feel completely confident with this putter. I have never seen the ball roll this consistently end over end on my start line. It has made me realize that I definitely have a bit of work to do in the green reading department, but what’s really nice is that it never leaves me guessing. When I watch the ball start on my line and roll perfectly end over end, it is at least nice to be able to definitively say “oh I just misread that” while taking out almost every other variable.”

“Also for whatever reason people find the gimme getter so hilarious. It’s always just “oh cool that picks up balls?!”…Unless something wild happens this putter will be staying in the bag for the foreseeable future including the tournament schedule over the season, I’ve got almost nothing bad to say about it.”

@molecularman

“It’s everything I hoped it would be. I’m very happy I went with the heavier head option, I fear the standard weight would have felt a touch too light for my taste. So shout out to Calvin for being spot on there. At the current weight, I can have a light grip pressure and let gravity do the work. The head just feels incredibly stable and amazingly solid. Speaking of grip, I really debated what grip to go with and the Press Pistol seems like a great choice. The grip feels very versatile for different putting styles, maybe a bit less so for left hand low (imo). I’m mostly a “2 thumbs” guy but have gone back and forth with left hand low as well as claw. The grip tapers down to a smaller flat oval at the bottom. I didn’t love it for left hand low, but for a claw style grip it is really really good.”

@coreyhr

“This putter isn’t going to magically turn a poor putter in to Brad Faxon on the greens. But what I can say with confidence is that removing the excessive face rotation from the putter makes creating a repeatable, consistent stroke infinitely easier to obtain. If you’ve been wanting to try a LAB putter, this is the one truly worth taking the dive on in my opinion. Having never been completely blown away with the Mezz or DF 2.1, this putter has really changed my opinion. I’ve always been really intrigued by the technology, and completely buy in to the concept, but I’ve never been able to get past what I perceived to be less than stellar looks, sound and feel. LAB, in my opinion, has address and improved on all of those things. While this putter still looks far from conventional, it did not take long to get comfortable with the look or footprint. It’s not overly obnoxious in size and sets up so well behind the ball.”

@SEP1006

“As far as consistency, it’s ridiculous. You can hit these putters ANYWHERE on the face and the ball rolls end over end. And whether you hit it in the middle, on the toe, or on the heel. The balls roll pretty much the same distance, easily within 6″ of each other.”

“LAB really did a great job with the new smaller size as well. The DF 2 always felt like I was putting with a branding iron. The DF 3 is a perfect compact size and very easy to look down at.”

“The DF 2 I had was an armlock putter. So my only concern with the DF 3 was the grip. I have never been a hands pressed forward putter. It was recommended to me to go with the Press II 1.5* grip so I did. Went with the textured grip and it is perfect. I putt with the pencil grip and my hands are very comfortable.”

“As much as I love the roll that the PXG milled face putters (which I’ve been using for years) put on the ball the DF 3 is even better. Can’t believe I’m saying this but you will soon see my PXG putter on the BST.”
