adidas Junior Golf Shoes
adidas Junior Golf Shoes 2023 Review
adidas ZG23s are an updated version of last year's standout shoes for junior golfers. Boasting a casual athletic look as well as support, traction and shock absorption features for maximum playback, they make for the ideal junior golf shoe choice.
Juniors will appreciate their lock-in feel and six cleat outer sole which provides optimal traction in wet conditions.
The FootJoy Fuel
As a golf enthusiast, chances are you have seen the FootJoy shoes displayed at any shoe shop before. From their classic Premiere series to more contemporary offerings such as the Fuel series. According to Alex Lodge of GolfMagic Equipment Reviewer's Alex Lodge review he believes they deliver on all fronts.
The Fuel is designed with sneaker-inspired fit and feel for maximum walking comfort and packed full of golf-specific innovation. Its waterproof performance synthetic uppers are easy to wipe clean while its durable construction offers maximum walkability round after round. Boa Fit System ensures precise adjustments while Stratolite foam cushioning provides lightweight underfoot cushioning to maximize walkability round after round. Tour-proven traction offers Tour-proven control while Power Stabilizer outsole technology provides additional support.
The non-slip sole makes this shoe well suited for all weather conditions, particularly hard and dry summer ground. Furthermore, this shoe appears durable enough to withstand wear and tear caused by active children who often jump around on courses!
FJ have chosen an eye-catching colourway for their Fuel shoe: white and black in BOA version and white and navy blue for laces version. Both designs stand out incredibly, with white/black versions incorporating an eye-catching faded midfoot section that adds visual interest in an otherwise plain looking shoe.
FJ have made quite an impressionful change with their design for the Fuel junior golf shoe, which takes on an altogether more modern and futuristic feel compared to traditionalist offerings from them in terms of its visual aesthetics. Instead of opting for color or graphics alone to achieve its visual impact, they opted for texture instead - something sure to appeal to younger golfers on the course! FJ are well known for providing premium quality products; Fuel certainly lives up to this reputation and should definitely be considered when shopping for new golf shoes!
The Jordan Spieth
Jordan Spieth gained wide-spread acclaim in 2015 when he won two majors and finished top five in two more. Many experts predicted that Spieth could achieve an unprecedented career Grand Slam. Unfortunately, since 2015 he has struggled - yet to win another major tournament! - though still remains popular with golf fans and holds endorsement agreements with several large companies.
Jordan Spieth's younger sister Ellie was born with a neurological condition and she has had an impactful influence on him and his charitable endeavors. In 2014, Spieth established the Jordan Spieth Family Foundation to raise support and awareness for special needs youth, military families, junior golf programs and pediatric cancer. Each year he holds the Invitational Tournament of Champions charity event to support these causes.
adidas collaborated with Jordan Spieth and his team at adidas to design this kids version of their Tour 360 22 shoe, making sure it would meet modern, sporty needs for golfers today while still looking great and providing ample traction and cushioning - creating an affordable option that won't break the bank! The result? An exceptional-looking, high-performing shoe at an unbeatably reasonable price point!
This shoe's upper is constructed of premium waterproof leather, making it the ideal shoe for playing golf in unpredictable weather conditions. Additionally, its 100 percent waterproof feature helps keep feet dry and comfortable during each round while its grippy sole flexes with your foot's movements during swinging for added realism and improved swing technique.
The Jordan Spieth shoe is an ideal solution for kids looking for stylish yet budget-friendly footwear on the course. Reminiscent of a trainer in terms of design, it provides supreme comfort while its grippy sole proves highly durable - an ideal solution for young golfers who require footwear that will stand the test of time.
The Under Armour UA Golf Shoes
Golf shoes are an indispensable piece of equipment, providing comfort, fit and traction with every swing you take. To do that, players need a pair of specifically-designed golf shoes.
Under Armour is here to help. Founded in Baltimore and relatively new to the golf shoe market, they have quickly established themselves among professional golfers - including sponsored athlete Jordan Spieth who wears their shoes on tour - due to their combination of comfort and performance for those requiring modern designs similar to sneaker styles and athletic profiles.
The UA Charged Phantom Spikeless golf shoe is an ideal option for junior golfers seeking something that combines comfort and stability on the course. Thanks to its spikeless design, your kids won't get bogged down with dirt or other debris found on courses; plus its EVA foam footbed and Charged cushioning midsole will keep them feeling fresh for every round.
Fit is another area in which UA shoes shine, featuring their proprietary PWRStrap fit nylon strap to assist with tightness around the foot in addition to traditional laces. This ensures your shoe stays tight and comfy during long rounds of golf as well as offering additional ankle support.
This shoe offers another advantage for golfers: It is fully waterproof. Thanks to UA's Never-Wet technology that creates a watertight barrier within the upper shoe material.
As previously discussed, not all golf shoes are created equal, and choosing the ideal pair for your kids can make all the difference in their ability to enjoy golf. One such example of this would be UA Breathe 2, an excellent example of how choosing quality footwear can make a significant impactful statement about them and their abilities in this sport.
The Adidas ZG23
Like their spikeless counterparts, these shoes may be disappointing to some golfers but will help reduce weight for young players. Their lightweight hybrid Lightstrike midsole and Sprintskin microfiber-leather upper offer comfort and stability, while six-cleat SwingPlane traction provides maximum grip in different conditions. In order to fine-tune their design further, adidas analysed staff players such as Morikawa, Xander Schauffele and Tyrrell Hatton via heat map studies so secondary outsole cleats were placed precisely where their feet moved during their swing - creating shoes where secondary outsole cleats were placed during each swing so their feet shifted during swing motion - providing maximum grip no matter the conditions.
adidas Golf's ZG23 features an enhanced midsole featuring LightStrike and LightStrike Pro cushioning systems derived from basketball and running footwear for optimal comfort while still offering stability. Firmer LightStrike surrounds the outside for lateral stability while soft LightStrike Pro fills out its frame interiorly for support while walking and swinging your club.
Stability Fin, designed to assist with natural body rotation and weight shift during golfer swings, has also been upgraded. Now shaped as a 3D shape with tighter fitting upper parts for increased targeted support for all swing speeds - from amateur to Tour pro golfers - is now more effective.
These junior shoes are lightweight, which makes them great choices for kids who spend long days out on the course, since their heavy footwear won't add strain or cause blisters. Furthermore, its construction incorporates antimicrobial treatment to eliminate odor buildup while keeping feet fresh and dry throughout play.
The laced version is offered in four colorways while the BOA model comes in two. Both are offered for men's and women's sizing and both versions are currently up for pre-order with prices set at £200 and £220, respectively. They should ship out early next year. For more information about pre-ordering these shoes please visit adidas website - expect delivery before April.
