adidas Golf introduces POWERBAND, a shoe created specifically to address the needs of the modern athlete and engineered for today's power game.
POWERBAND incorporates three sophisticated adidas Golf technologies that unite to help the athlete harness untapped power by promoting better balance, stability, and leverage. The three technologies together are known as the “power trio”.
1) The shoe derives its name from the first element of the power trio – The POWERBAND Chassis. The POWERBAND Chassis establishes an unprecedented level of perimeter support that inspires a strong sense of self-assurance the instant the golfer settles into address.
The POWERBAND Chassis limits midsole compression and stabilizes the perimeter of the swing foundation. The ultra stability is accomplished by tying the cleat and the receptacle to the sidewall via the TPU support elements and a TPU perimeter shell.
The POWERBAND Chassis has been proven by the University of Calgary Biomechanics Research Lab to increase peak pressure at the top of the backswing and increase peak pressure at impact. This increased pressure helps to harness the power generated by the swing and delivers it to the ball at impact.
2) Adiprene+ is a highly resilient material that manages energy for improved response in the footbed. This technology's fast reactive response provides immediate feedback to promote improved footwork for better weight transfer and balance. The harder the player pushes it, the harder it pushes back.
