adidas Golf introduces Solarthon golf shoes, inspired by the solstice and long days of golf

FOLLOW: iHEART | TUNEIN


It's summertime in the Northern Hemisphere, and that means chasing daylight out on the golf course. Inspired by long days of golf, adidas Golf is introducing Solarthon, an ultra-lightweight, comfortable shoe.

Solarthon features a full-length Boost midsole and a spikeless Fishscale Traxion outsole to provide grip and stability. There's a film around the edges of the upper to make it water-resistant, particularly that early morning dew in summer. A TPU heel counter on the outside of the shoe prevents heel movement and keeps a golfer locked in during the swing.

The company is releasing the shoes with a limited-edition gray/blue/white colorway, too, with a Primeblue textile upper, featuring a high-performance recycled yarn containing at least 50 percent Parley Ocean Plastic. The model will be available June 15.

There are two other colorways -- black/gold and gray/yellow -- launching July 1 with more size offerings, too.
