adidas Launch TOUR360 BOA BOOST

Who needs laces?

Words: Daniel Owen

The adidas TOUR360 is one of our favourite golf shoes ever. It was one of the first golf shoes we tried that genuinely felt as comfy as a pair of trainers, while bringing a much more modern look to the game when everyone else was still wearing wing tips. Last month they relaunched, and now they've also added a BOA version.

The TOUR360 recorded 38 PGA TOUR victories and over two million pairs have been sold around the world. It’s been updated with Boost technology for it’s comeback. Which is a good thing. We’ve loved our BOOST golf shoes, so much so that we’ve gone out and bought the BOOST trainers. They are that comfy, it's like walking on a bed of marshmallows. Without the stickiness obviously...

The TOUR360 BOA BOOST features a BOA Closure System, an incremental pull and push structure located on the top centre tongue. The BOA–integrated 360LOOP is connected to the 360WRAP and enables fast and easy micro-adjustability for a customisable and comfortable fit.

adidas golf and Boa worked together for 18 months as the footwear was being developed to seamlessly integrate the Boa 360LOOP to the 360WRAP for a customisable and comfortable fit. The BOA dial is strategically placed on the top of the foot for maximum ease of use and discretion.

Unlike other BOA golf shoes with the dial placed on the heel, the TOUR360 BOA BOOST enables the shoe to be tightened and loosened in a natural fashion, whilst preventing snagging on your trouser legs.

All the TOUR360 BOOST golf shoes feature full-length BOOST cushioning in the forefoot and heel for maximum comfort. A re-engineered 360WRAP is lighter and more flexible to allow for greater adjustability and, for the first time, the 360WRAP combines with a full-length outsole. The new TORSION TUNNEL technology provides independent flexibility and control between the heel and the forefoot with the added benefit of enhanced arch support and traction.

The new heel shape inspired by adidas and running shoes, features an s-curve which follows and adapts to the natural contour of the foot for an improved fit.
