[*][b]I have had several pairs of the Tour 360 over the years. Including a pair of White/Silver Tour 360 ATV M1 that still look great. The introduction of the Boost technology to golf shoes has combine the structure of the Tour 360 and the comfort of the AdiPure model.

Lets try again.Rockville, Maryland.
8 to 12 rounds per month.
Adidas Tour 360 and Adizero. I have been an Adidas fan since the Traxion. Finally found a shoe that fit and made walking a pleasure.
Social media/web site is usually the first to point out something new, or you see something new in the pro shop.
Not been successful in being chosen to review previously.
I agree to participate in the review thread.
Yes. Played today and looking forward to more of this unseasonably warm weather before heading to Florida in January.
I think that I could offer analysis based on the perspective of many years of prior experience using Adidas golf shoes and know that a bad one can make a "good walk spoiled."

​Since we spend 4+ hours on our feet each time we play (not including practice) it's important to be wearing a pair of shoes that feel like a part of your foot, not a pair of shoes you cant wait to get out of when you get back to the locker room or your car. Comfort is extremely important in that if your feet are killing you, how can you possibly shoot a good round when you're distracted by aching feet. Of course you don't want to wear a shoe that doesn't perform well either, waterproof protection and traction on multi surfaces gives you confidence on the course, but then again you don't want to wear a shoe that gives you everything you need to perform, but looks like a combat boot. Style, comfort, and performance are clearly the prerequisites for a successful golf shoe. That's how I would review this shoe

I had one adidas shoes before, and I liked it.
When I saw the commercial of Tour360, I think it is cool.
As I have an experience to review a golf item here, I can do the job pretty well.

[*][b]Living in Texas I'm lucky enough to play year round, so it would not be an issue to review them on course and in different conditions. I've always loved Adidas shoes for my workout footwear, but have never had much opportunity to play golf in them (other than my sambas, which I love). I would be able to take pictures and provide feedback on varying conditions, which would include rounds in both a cart and walking. I don't spend much time on the range so my feedback would be almost strictly on course. I would also be able to compare them to their closest competitor in the Lunar Control's.[/b]

[b]I'd love to see how the boost and the Tour 360 combination works out. I always loved the look of the Tour360 style from adidas and had a few pairs. They felt comfortable but were always very heavy. Seeing this combination got me wanting to try them again and see if they can compete with my current lineup of shoes. I remember seeing the boost style shoe came out but was not convinced they were of quality build. The Tour360 hopefully alleviates that worry to compliment the boost side of the shoe. To review these, I'd first try them around at home and attempt practice swings. Then I'd try them out on the course, walking 18 holes describing how the shoe feels each hole and it's progression. I do worry that January might be fairly cold in NYC and might hinder the review but willing to sacrifice warmth to try these on. Also it would be a good excuse to tell my wife I have to play golf to review these shoes.[/b]

Prior to moving to the Boost shoe I was a FootJoy loyalist back to the days of the Classics. I am interested to see how this new shoe compares to the Boost I am currently wearing. I would make it the first shoe in the rotation for all of my rounds. I will be playing in the warmth of San Diego and the rain of the Northwest so I will test it at both ends of the golfing spectrum.

Where are you located (City, State - US Only Please)?

[b]Sanford, NC[/b]

How many rounds of golf do you play each month?

[b]12-15[/b]


What’s in your current shoe brand/model of choice? Why

[b]I have a number of shoe brands/models as I try shoes that look good and appear comfortable. I rotate my shoes and care for them so the shoe stock grows and grows. In my current rotation I am wearing FJ/DNA, FJ/Hydrolite, Adidas Adizero, Adidas Tour 360, Adidas Tour 360 LTD, and 2 pair of FJ/DryJoy. As I play year round conditions change which requires different shoes and colors. Adizeros are great for really wet conditions, FJ are general purpose, but my favorite (and still looking great) are my Tour 360 LTD. They are comfortable and the best looking shoes in my inventory. [/b]

What is the most important factor in buying a shoe?

[b]The single most important factor in buying a shoe is fit. This includes being true to size, width, and toe box design. [/b]

How do you discover new golf footwear products (i.e. social media, Tour, TV ads, etc)

[b]Golf magazines, GolfWRX, Tour (TV) are typical sources. I keep an eye out for new styles.[/b]

Have you reviewed an items for GolfWRX before? If so, please explain.

[b]No formal reviews but I have posted impression of new equipment I have purchased or commented on others' posts sharing my experience with various golf related equipment.[/b]

Will you be able to play/test the shoe before the end of January (yes or no)?

[b]Yes[/b]

[b]I am intrigued by the pictures of these new shoes as they remind me of my favorite Adidas Tour 360 LTD. I am very pleased to see Adidas return to this design and am anxious to know how the combination of new materials and this style come together. Things I would focus on in testing these shoes would be (in order): 1. Fit, are they true to size? 2. Comfort, how well padded is the collar, tongue, footbed, and general support. 3. Do the shoes provide a stable platform under varying conditions -- driving, iron play, from the rough, from the fairway and how do they interact with the greens. What type of spikes are used and is the locking system secure? 4. Style. Are they a slight update to the classic designs of '08, '09? What colors are offered? Are there special touches such as contrasting shoe laces? There may be other items that come to mind as I test the shoes so this list may not be all inclusive but these would be the main areas of focus. Give me a shot! I'll give you an honest and well considered review of this new line. [/b]

[*][b]I've recently been on the lookout for comfortable, sharp looking golf shoes. As I mentioned above I walk whenever I play and, with the unpredictable weather in the Pacific Northwest (well, I guess it's actually pretty predictable in the winter - cold and rainy) I play in all kinds of conditions. I used to buy shoes on looks alone since I never had a need to walk in them more than from the cart to the tee and green. My priorities have changed quite a bit since then - my shoes have to be extremely comfortable and durable.[/b]
[*][b]Given how much rain we've had in the Seattle area this winter I'll be able to provide some very detailed feedback on the waterproof capabilities of the new 360s. The majority of the courses I play have some decent elevation changes so traction, especially on wet turf, would really be put to the test if I'm selected. I'm curious to see how extra 10% of traction functions compared to my current shoes. I've had a couple of run ins with slippery slopes due to the lack of consistent traction provided by my existing spikes.[/b]

Since then I've been looking for something to match the comfort, style, and stability of the 360s, so I couldn't be more excited for the launch of this shoe. I plan on reviewing the shoes by giving my overall impressions on style, comfort, durability, and stability. I'd play as many rounds as possible in them given the time frame while hitting shots from a variety of lies and various course conditions noting how my feet felt in the shoes, how the traction compared to my current model, and the durability of the shoes in each condition.[/b]

Play about 10 rounds a month

I would like to review the new adidas Tour360 boost shoes because I have never tried golf shoes from companies other than Nike. The shoes I currently use become uncomfortable after half a round of golf and it is fairly difficult to find shoes that fit correctly in size 14 or 15. My review of the shoes would include extended times practicing and playing, level of comfort throughout rounds of golf, and stability of the shoe.

[*][b]I would first start off the review with high quality photos of the shoe in proper lighting and in many angles as possible. Then go into the notable technologies and design aspects of the shoe, how it adds or subtracts from the shoe. Next go into the size and fit, some initial feelings as I first take a few steps in the shoe. The next part of the review would be to compare the additional traction added by the torsion tunnel versus my current Tour360 M1. Then play a round and provide my thoughts on how the shoes and my feet with the boost sole have held up through the day. I would conclude the review with a recommendation to all my fellow GolfWRXers to purchase the shoe.[/b]
[*][b]For a bonus and to keep the buzz and conversation going, I would see if the Tour360 Boost shoe blends, and throw it into a BlendTec blender. Similar to these videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBUJcD6Ws6s [/b]

My holy grail for a golf shoe is comfort from the time I put them on throughout the entire round of golf and relaxing. This means that when I put the shoes on and play 18 holes, I would like a golf shoe to still be comfortable to walk and relax in while being inside the clubhouse. I don't want to feel the spikes as I walk throughout the round, yet I still need the shoe to perform what they are made for. I would review the the look, feel, comfort, and wear throughout my rounds of golf. [/color]

In the post below, provide answers to the following questions:

Where are you located? Macomb, Michigan

How many rounds of golf do you play each month? 20-25, if not more depending on work schedule

What’s in your current shoe brand/model of choice? Adidas (3 pairs of AdiZeros and 4 pairs of the past 360's), AdiZero One, Tour 360 ATV Why? Top notch comfort, the Adizero's are super light weight so it feels like nothing is on my feet after walking 18 and the Tour 360s, the low profile that keeps my feet right to the ground with great traction even in wet conditions.

What is the most important factor in buying a shoe? Comfort first and foremost, durability and style (along with a bunch of colors!)

How do you discover new golf footwear products (i.e. social media, Tour, TV ads, etc) Golfwrx.com, golfsmith, my own research based on what I'm looking for.

Have you reviewed an items for GolfWRX before? Nope not yet!

If selected, do you agree to participate in an ongoing adidas Tour360 Boost review thread? Absolutely, I have no problem doing further research!

Yes, I will be able to test these out before the end of January, planning a golf trip to the Carolina's as soon as I get approved for the time off.

I've always wore Adidas golf shoes and always have my ear to the sky about new products that are dropping in the near future and the reviews and feedback on the current stuff that out on the market now. Since seeing the Boost models drop last year and not having a chance to pick up a pair or try them out I feel that this would give me a great opportunity to try another great product from Adidas and continue to use them in the future!

[*]This year I switch to FJ Hyperflex. Before that it was always Adidas. Reason for the switch was the frustration I got with Adizero's. Not only would they leave the worst tracks on the green (embarrassing) but I had an issue with all 4 of the pairs I owned with the cleats constantly falling out! But damn did I ever love the 360's!!!
[*]Comfort and then style is what is most important to me. I am a walker...
[*]I see all the new stuff on here (WRX) and social media that I follow on twitter
[*]I have never reviewed an item on here....
[*]I will be able to to get into all reviews and discussions and give good pictures towards the new product yes!
[*][b]I will absolutely still be playing.[/b]
[*]I have always been an Adidas shoe guy. I just get so frustrated with the Adizero situation I had with the cleats falling out and the chewing of the greens that I looked elsewhere this year. These 360's look great and bring back so many good memories of the 360's that are retired to my shelf in the garage right now!
