Hey guys I am looking for a new pair of golf shoes since my Samba golf pair ran out. I am interested in what pair you think is the better shoe, the 360 or the adizero. By the way what shoe  do you wear?


Posted

Two different types of shoes.  360 ATV is traditional golf shoe with lots of support, cushion and stiffness.  I have a pair and they are comfortable for traditional golf shoes.

The Adizero is Adidas's attempt at a minimalist golf shoe, very low to the ground, minimal stability and support but more than you will find in a True Linkswear shoe.  The Adizero seemed and felt very narrow to me when I tried them on and I haven't found a store that carries wide widths so I've not considered buying them.

I think you should try them both on, they are very different shoes.  I wear Adidas AdiPure and FootJoy Icon's on hilly or muddy courses and True Linkswear TRUE Stealth on dry courses, to the range and everywhere else I don't have to wear traditional shoes.

I have a pair of both. The AdiZeros are a lot lighter, but a lot less comfortable. They also squeak and chew up soft greens like nobody's business. I won't buy them again.

out of those 2, go with the 360's. I suggest you try on the TW nike shoes and see how you like those. I own both shoes and prefer my TW nikes.

I've tried them all, I have the worlds most tender feet.  If I had to wear golf shoes with cleats, I would pick the AdiZero, IMHO, they are by far the most comfortable cleated golf shoe on the market.  Of all the more traditional golf shoes I have tried, the 360 was the most comfortable.

All that said, I plan to never wear a cleated golf shoe again, I have gotten rid of all my traditional golf shoes and gone 100% spikeless.  I have a variety of spikeless shoes, with the FootJoy Contour spikeless leading the pack.  I also have a pair of ECCO Street, Adidas AdiPure and Oakley Ripcord to round out my collection.

Without a doubt...........adidas 360 ATV!  I definitely don't like the look of the adi-zero.

The ATV's fit great and look great!  I keep buying them on line when I can find them.  Have 6 pairs in multi - colors!!

    • Day 11: did mirror work for a while. Worked on the same stuff. 
    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
