adidas consistently delivers striking footwear for golfers and that has often been showcased through its CODECHAOS range, with the new CODECHAOS 25 set to offer incredible traction and stability in a distinctive visual style.
Led by the CODECHAOS 25 BOA model, the new footwear will also come in a laced version for men and women and they are now available worldwide.
While pops of bright colours, CODECHAOS 25’s updated performance components are what set the new model apart from other spikeless footwear in the market. Specifically, the redesigned outsole features a new 3D TORSION plate which aims to help golfers with stability both during their swing and as they walk the course. The adidas team also found that the 3D TORSION plate provided a better overall fit and helped minimise midfoot bend, which ultimately can cause internal heel slip. Golfers will recognise the TWISTGRIP outsole but adidas updated the outsole with a new lug shape placed over a greater surface area on the outsole, adding up to 40% increase in traction-providing elements compared against previous iterations of the footwear.
“Nearly five years ago, we made the bold move to introduce CODECHAOS when traditional spikeless models were saturating the market,” said Masun Denison, global footwear director, adidas Golf. “The impact this footwear had then and continues to have now is another proof point for us that golfers are continuing to look for spikeless performance in athletic and non-traditional silhouettes. CODECHAOS 25 represents a milestone for us on how we’ve made this shoe better over the past five years, especially during a time where golf has seen such tremendous growth and participation.”
To further enhance the performance of the shoe, the adidas team worked with engineers at BOA to incorporate PerformFit Wrap powered by the BOA Fit System as part of the BOA model of CODECHAOS 25. Covered by a zipper shroud, the PerformFit Wrap offers golfers another component aimed to provide a locked-in feel with additional stability. CODECHAOS 25 BOA will be available in both men’s and women’s silhouettes.
Knowing comfort is important for all golfers, adidas created a new hybrid midsole featuring both BOOST and LIGHTSTRIKE technologies. While BOOST focuses on energy return and cradling the foot, LIGHTSTRIKE is featured around the rim of the midsole to add both stability and comfort when golfers swing. This combination is ideal for golfers as most are seeking both comfort and stability while out on the course.
The upper for CODECHAOS 25 is comprised of a durable, multi-layer knit with the goal of providing golfers with additional flexibility. The bottom layer closest to the foot features a soft, moisture-wicking material, which helps to increase comfort over the course of the round. The middle layer, a dynamic jacquard, is an open structure aimed to provide flexibility and help golfers adapt to the lie, while the outer layer is a sporty mesh to enhance the layers beneath. A transparent PU film also provides a ‘window’ into what makes this upper unique while still giving golfers waterproof protection.
