Nike releases Masters Edition of the TW ’13

Published

on

It’s been a pretty good year so far for Tiger Woods. He has won three of the five events he has competed in, and reclaimed the No. 1 spot in the Official World Rankings following his win at the Arnold Palmer Invitational.

Now, to help celebrate the first major of the year, as well as Tiger’s quest for a fifth green jacket, Nike is releasing a limited-edition version of its TW’13 shoes that feature — what else? — some green on them.

The shoes, which will sell for $180 like the other two TW’13 versions, feature a band of green on the bottom of the shoes that almost matches the color of the green jacket. The limited edition shoes also feature a yellow eye-stay and a red TW logo on the shoe tongue.

These shoes will be available starting March 28 at select retailers and on Nike’s website.

The TW’13 was first released last June (click here to read GolfWRX’s article about its release) and was helped created by Woods after he asked Nike to design a golf shoe that would give him the same fit and feel as his Nike Free running shoes.

The result of Woods’ request was the TW’13, which as a company press release states, features an “outsole [that] is designed to mimic and conform to the natural motion of the foot, coupled with the protection and traction of a lightweight performance golf shoe. This innovative outsole delivers flexibility that allows the athlete to keep contact with the ground longer, unleashing the full power of their swing.

The Nike TW ’13 also features the Nike Dynamic Fit support system. Targeted support delivers unprecedented strength-to-weight ratio and one-to-one fitted support. Flywire infused nylon straps extend 360 degrees from the footbed to the lacing system, securing the foot for an adaptive fit that provides golfers stability with mobility.”

    Just got mine. They are really great looking shoes. I have the original TW 13 shoes and think they are great except I wished I had bought them a half size larger. I got the Masters edition in a larger size and they fit perfectly.

    How anyone thinks these shoes look good is beyond me. They look ugly and cheap.

    Just seen that they are releasing TW14 model soon, very similar just slight improvements to the design. looks like its only coming in Black and White again which is so 1990’s

    Trying to Squeeze the last $$$ out of the TW13 model before its on the sale rack.

    They look OK but I generally agree with Woody why not more colour like the other recent Nike golf shoes releases

    I’m pretty disappointed with these. Phenomenal lack of green and yellow. Wish these celebrated the Masters more

TaylorMade launches Spider Tour Torched putters

Published

on

TaylorMade has dominated the mallet putter market with their expansive Spider putter line over the last few years. From players on professional tours to us everyday players, you will see a lot of Spider putters in bags. For 2026 TaylorMade is updating the Spider line with the new Spider Torched series that features a new torched PVD finish and some new head shapes.

The first thing you will notice about the Spider Torched putters is the bronze color finish. This finish takes inspiration from Rory’s custom Spider that is heated with a torch to get a multi-color bronze finish. When you heat stainless steel to around 600°F to 900°F it will change to this bronze color in a process called temper color. This happens because very high temperatures cause the metal’s surface to react with oxygen in the air, creating a thin transparent layer that gradually becomes thicker over time. Instead of using the time-consuming torching process, TaylorMade went with a more durable PVD finish to get a similar look.

Rory’s TaylorMade Spider Tour X

With the new launch we get the familiar Spider Tour head shapes that we know and love with the Spider Tour and Spider Tour X. Both are offered with different hosels as well to give looks that golfers will love and influence the toe hang of the putters for fitting different putting strokes. It doesn’t stop there as TaylorMade is also giving us the new Spider Tour V and Spider Tour F shapes that offer a different look and alignment at address. All of the heads stay true to being a Spider by their high MOI design for stability and forgiveness. A sole plate with updated graphics moves weight away from the center of the club head and out to the perimeter.

“The Spider Tour putter family represents the very best of what we do at TaylorMade. Nearlytwo decades of engineering, refinement and Tour feedback have gone into building thisfamily—and this new finish brings a level of visual sophistication that matches theperformance underneath it. These are putters that belong in the hands of the best players inthe world, and they’re proving it every week.”–Andrew Oldknow, Senior DirectorProductCategory and Design

For lining up the putter we see the tried and true True Path alignment that TaylorMade has been using on Spiders for what feels like forever. This high contrast line makes it faster and easier to get the putter pointed towards your target for more accuracy. You can also see the legendary Pure Roll insert that is made from white TPU for a softer feel. Each insert contains horizontal 45 degree grooves that put more forward roll on the ball and reduce hopping and skidding. Behind the insert is a Hybrar Echo Dampener that will reduce unwanted vibrations for a softer feel and sound at impact. On the sole TaylorMade kept the TSS weights so that you can dial in the head weight in order to get the perfect feel out of your Spider Tour Torched.

All of the new Spider Torched putters are offered with a premium KBS CT 120 putter shaft that features a gloss black finish. This upgraded shaft features a stiffer feel and low toque for added stability and consistency. The stock grip is a Super Stroke Pistol 1.0 while the counter balanced models get a Super Stroke 2.0 XL grip that is longer, 13.75″, in order to grip it further down easily. A new brown head cover has a leather texture and looks really good with the brown and light blue accents on it.

The new Spider Torched putters will have a $349.99 price for both the standard and counter balanced models.
