Adidas to release Pittsburgh-inspired Tour 360 Boa Boost shoes for Oakmont

Published

on

The 2016 U.S. Open is being held at the historic Oakmont Country Club, which sits on the Northeast outskirts of Pittsburgh a.k.a. “The City of Bridges.” To commemorate the event, adidas is launching a line of limited-edition gear, including Tour360 BOA Boost shoes ($250), t-shirts ($30), hats ($25) and socks ($18).

As the City of Bridges, Pittsburgh has 446 different bridges, most-notably of which are the “Three Sisters.” The graphics on the heels of the Tour360 Boost shoes give a nod to the iconic bridges, and there are “cable graphics” on the saddle and bottom of the shoe, as well.

The line also honors the sports teams of Pittsburgh — the MLB Pirates, the NFL Steelers and the NHL Penguins — with black-and-yellow colorways. Certainly Wiz Khalifa would approve.

The limited-edition items will be available on June 8 at adidasgolf.com and select retailers. See more photos from Adidas below.

    Those are sweet. If I had any affinity for the Pittsburgh teams I would be all over them.

    Love it all. Take my money. Is it too late to put the Stanley cup on the shoes?

Mitsubishi Diamana WB: What you need to know + club build, on-course testing

Published

on

GolfWRX’s Resident Club Junkie, Brian Knudson, was naturally excited to get his hands on Mitsubishi’s new Diamana WB shaft.

In this video, BK gives you a brief overview of the new WB, builds up a driver, and takes it to the course for some testing.

With the rebirth of the iconic Whiteboard profile, Mitsubishi didn’t just re-issue a classic, but rather infused all the company’s latest tech into a new shaft, paying homage to the original with its quintessentially Hawaiian-inspired stylings. A summary of that impressive roster of technology, below.

  • 80-ton Dialead pitch fiber: Positioned in the handle, Dialead is designed to deliver greater ball speed via better energy transfer.
  • Aerospace-grade MR70 carbon fiber adds additional strength, and 46-ton fiber in angle plies in the tip section reduce torque for tighter shot dispersion.
  • Consistent Feel Design: Engineers target minimal variance across shafts (butt OD, weight, and balance point) to make the fitting process easier.
  • Xlink Tech Resin System: Engineers continue to reduce resin content and increase carbon fiber volume for greater feel without sacrificing strength and durability.
