New for 2021, Srixon/Asics unveils GEL-Course Ace golf shoe
Srixon has today introduced a new golf footwear model in partnership with Asics North America – the GEL-Course Ace golf shoe.
Asics golf shoes are built with inspiration from Asics’ running shoes and are designed to deliver comfort and flexibility, while also providing maximum traction and stability.
The new addition from Srixon/Asics features lightweight frame work and flexibility through an Air mesh which aims to provide flexibility during the swing and while walking the golf course. The shoes also contain Flyte Foam, which is designed to offer lightweight shock absorption along with excellent durability.
The spikeless golf shoe contains a flexible mesh for comfort, while the thin PU and waterproof lining will make sure your feet stay dry in wet conditions.
The shoe features an air mesh at vamp with an integrated quarter panel to provide a supportive fit, while an internal molded heel counter aims to secure optimal foot support. Additional ankle padding is also designed to help ensure a custom fit that adapts to every move.
The FG traction sole pattern on the GEL-Course Ace golf shoe aims to place spikes exactly where players need stability and traction while walking the course. Rearfoot GEL cushioning is also included in a bid to reduce impact and increase shock absorption. At the same time, Toe and Lateral rubber wraps are designed to help maintain balance throughout the golf swing.
Speaking on the new addition, Mike Powell, President of Sales and Marketing at Srixon/Cleveland Golf/XXIO stated
“The Srixon/ASICS partnership has been tremendous for both our brands. Asics is a huge global sports brand and widely recognized as the leader in performance footwear. We’re excited to launch the new GEL-Course ACE. This shoe will provide the legendary performance of Asics running shoes and the waterproof protection you need when conditions on the course aren’t perfect.”
In addition to the release of the new GEL-Course Ace, Srixon/Asics has announced the introduction of four new color options for the GEL-Course Glide: Sheet Rock/White and peacoat/Glacier Grey for Men’s shoes and Black/Rose Gold and Glacier Grey/Pure Silver for women’s shoes. The GEL-Course Glide shoes will now retail for $99.99

Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.
That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.
On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.
“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”
On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”
“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.

Does it come in wide? The ones from last year did not.
