Nike TW ’14 golf shoe
Tiger Woods wasted no time breaking in the newest version of his Nike Free-inspired golf shoe, the TW ’14.
Woods wore the shoes during all four rounds at The Players Championship in route to his fourth win on the PGA Tour in 2013, and his first win of The Players since 2001.
Like the TW ’13, the new model is designed to mimic the natural motion of the foot. That gives Woods a better connection to the ground, as well as a freedom of movement that he says allows him to release more power in his swings.
“With this shoe, we worked diligently to take every detail to a new level,” said Tobie Hatfield, Athlete Projects Innovator in Nike’s Innovation Kitchen, in a Nike press release.
According to Hatfield, Woods wanted more stability in the new shoe, which was accomplished by instituting Nike’s Dynamic Flywire technology — Nylon fibers that decrease weight and add stability — into the upper portion. The Flywire technology moves with him, but stabilizes his foot when he swings, Hatfield says.
The breathability of the waterproof shoe was also improved by using a full mesh tongue.
The TW ’14 will be available on June 7th, and will sell for around $180. The shoes will come in Black (with red and silver accents) and White (with dark grey and red accents) and will be released in a Grey/Black/Blue/Green colorway on August 1.
They will also be available through Nike’s NikeID store ($225), which allows consumers to choose a wide variety of color and personalization options, as well and two different upper constructions — waterproof or breathable, which is a NikeID exclusive. Through NikeID, consumers can also choose either a spiked or non-spiked outsole.

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.

I bought the white TW 14 and walked on one of our difficult course with hills on 18 holes and only slight pain I experienced but not from the shoes, but from just being tired. The shoes stayed balance and was comfortable over all. I’m glad I waited for the TW 14 since I didn’t like the TW 13’s toe area.

I love the new colours, much better than the white they originally started out with.

I’d buy the Nike ID in a flash – if they take off the silly TW logo. Not a chance I will buy them with that. And I know lots of other golfers that agree. Not sure why Nike hasn’t figured this out.

Really Brian? On what planet would Nike using the most recognized golfer in the world and putting a small emblem on the tongue is a bad move?
Somewhere a village is missing its idiot.

I hope they changed the shape of the toe box where it’s not so big and round. Can’t tell from the pics of course.

They did in fact change the shape somewhat and the shoe appears slimmer. It´s hot!

These shoes are awesome. They look sick. Anyone who says different has poor taste.

I don’t think they look good. I like more classic looking golf shoes. Last year’s looked good in the white, but these look like you’re gonna go pump some iron after the round.

For as good as Nike is at marketing you’d think they would be able to share a couple decent photos of these.
