adidas Golf Reveals ZG21 Motion Shoes

Back in January, adidas Golf launched its new ZG21 Family that was engineered to deliver high-performance spiked footwear that is lightweight. And now, the brand has revealed its latest addition - the ZG21 Motion - which has been part made with recycled materials.

adidas sought to challenge itself to create a high-performance upper made with recycled materials without changing what ZG21 was always meant to be - a lightweight spiked-performance shoe with zero compromises.

They achieved this by designing a technical mesh upper that is engineered to provide comfort, stability, and protection. This textile mesh upper is made with a minimum of 50 percent of recycled materials, furthering the mission to END PLASTIC WASTE and act as another example of how the brand is working towards its goal to use only recycled polyester in its products wherever possible by 2024. This upper is also waterproof (one-year warranty), proving that there is zero compromise when it comes to performance.

“ZG21 really filled a hole that we felt existed in the industry when it came to lightweight spiked footwear, and we’ve heard nothing but positive feedback around its design,” said Masun Denison, global director of footwear, adidas Golf. “That being said, we wanted to push the limits and see what was possible in regard to how we incorporated more sustainable materials without sacrificing performance, that when we say ‘zero compromise’ we truly mean it.”

As part of this release, they have also introduced the ZG21 Motion BOA, a new version for both men and women. In addition to the engineered textile upper made in part with recycled materials, this new silhouette features a higher cut design and sock-like opening for added stability, alongside the new PerformFit Wrap powered by the BOA Fit System. This ‘Y’-strap design offers an even higher level of performance, creating a secure fit over the instep and provides flexibility and freedom in the toe box. ZG21 Motion BOA will also offer players a one-year waterproof warranty to protect them from the elements.

All models of ZG21 Motion feature the key innovations from the original model that make this such a great option when it comes to lightweight spiked performance: LIGHTSTRIKE, UTLRALIGHT STABILITY FIN, the BOOST cushioning in the heel, and SWINGPLANE TRACTION outsole. There will be three silhouettes in total: the laced version alongside a BOA version for both men and women. ZG21 Motion is available today at adidas.com, the adidas app and at select retail partners worldwide.
