Adidas launch new CODECHAOS footwear range
New for 2020, Adidas Golf has unveiled its CODECHAOS footwear series which features three new golf shoes for both men and women.
The CODECHAOS ($150) shoe is designed to blur the lines by giving a connected look with the ground and features a spikeless outsole that blends a soft, yet durable, rubber outsole with a first-of-its-kind TPU insert.

The shoe’s outsole contains a proprietary traction system – Twistgrip – which was developed by evaluating heat maps in swing studies, specifically focusing on the way golfers distribute and shift their weight throughout the swing. Through this process, Adidas was then able to determine precisely where traction was needed most and what lug shapes would provide the best grip, regardless of conditions.

The CODECHAOS golf shoe also features an all-new upper which is made of multi-layer mesh, and is designed to give the shoe a unique texture while enhancing durability and breathability, but also keeping it extremely lightweight. By encasing these layers in film, Adidas ensured the CODECHAOS shoe provides golfers with a waterproof shoe for all conditions.

Also included in the new addition from Adidas is full-length Boost cushioning. The Boost cushioning aims to give players all-around comfort and energy return during their round, while a Torsion X stability bar is also included in a bid to ensure that all players are given tour-level support for every swing.

Designed to push the boundaries of what a stereotypical golf shoe looks like, the CODECHAOS lineup is aimed at golfers of all levels. Speaking on the new 2020 series, Masun Denison, global footwear director, Adidas Golf stated
“Golf continues to evolve and is in an exciting phase right now where the traditions of the game and how it can be played are all being challenged. We’re excited about this movement which has inspired us to break down barriers and create unique footwear and apparel for anyone that picks up a club. CODECHAOS is meant to challenge what a golf shoe can look and feel like while still delivering top-notch performance to all golfers whenever or wherever they play.”

Also featured in the new line is the CODECHAOS Boa ($180) which is a waterproof shoe designed to offer a clean look featuring a hydrophobic stretch-knit collar, and a lightweight slip-on construction.

The shoe features the L6 Boa Fit System designed to provide a customized and locked-in feel, while also making it an easy on-and-off option.

Completing the new series from Adidas is the CODECHAOS Sport ($130). The shoe is built on a spikeless rubber outsole, and the silhouette is designed to provide players with an even lighter construction for maximum versatility.

The CODECHAOS Sport is another waterproof addition and includes a mixture of both Boost and Bounce cushioning for excellent comfort.

The CODECHAOS, CODECHAOS Boa and CODECHAOS Sport shoes come in a variety of colors for both men and women and are available starting Jan. 31, 2020 on adidas.com and at select retailers worldwide.

Neal Shipley, AKA, the “Big Fridge’s,” custom stamping
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.

These look awful. If you want some good spikeless shoes, get some True Linkswear shoes.
