adidas Golf Originals: Gazelle and Samba - sneaker cult meets golf course

For a long time, the golf course was a place of strict dress codes and classic shoe models. But times are changing - and with the Golf Originals collection, adidas shows that style, sports history and modern golf technology don't have to be opposites. With the Gazelle and the Samba, adidas brings two of the world's most famous sneaker silhouettes to the Fairway, creating an elegant bridge between streetwear culture and the golf course. One shoe, two worlds.

The collection at a glance - adidas Golf Originals

The idea behind the adidas Golf Originals collection is as simple as it is convincing: iconic adidas lifestyle silhouettes that have been worn on streets and sports fields around the world for decades are given a technical makeover for the golf course. The result is shoes that are visually almost indistinguishable from their sneaker role models, but under the hood are equipped with everything golfers need on the course.

Both models - Gazelle and Samba - share a few basic features: they are designed without spikes, have a robust ADIWEAR outsole and are equipped with a waterproof leather upper. Both shoes are also available as unisex models and are therefore equally suitable for golfers.

Design & history

The Gazelle is a true legend. Originally introduced in the 1960s as a training shoe, it quickly became a cult shoe far beyond the world of sport. Its slim silhouette, soft leather upper and characteristic 3-Stripes have made the Gazelle a timeless classic - and it is precisely this recognition value that makes it a statement on the golf course.

Technical features

The golf version of the Gazelle remains visually faithful to the original, but technically focuses on the essentials for the course. The leather and synthetic upper is waterproof, ensuring dry feet even on damp surfaces or in the morning dew. The textile and synthetic lining ensures comfort throughout the entire round.

The spikeless rubber outsole with full ADIWEAR reinforcement offers reliable grip - both on the Fairway and off the course, for example on the way to the clubhouse. The lace-up closure and regular fit ensure a secure, classic fit on the foot.

Who is the Gazelle suitable for?

The adidas Originals Gazelle Golf is the right shoe for all golfers who don't want to compromise on personal style on the course and at the same time are looking for a versatile, robust shoe that also cuts a good figure after the round.

Design & History

Hardly any other shoe is as interwoven with the cultural history of sport as the adidas Samba. Originally developed in the 1950s for indoor soccer, it became an icon - on the pitch, in the music scene and on the street. Its characteristic design with the rubber toe cap and the contrasting 3-Stripes is unmistakable at first glance. The golf version retains all of this - complemented by modern golf technology.

Technical features

The full-grain leather upper is waterproof and therefore offers reliable protection in changeable weather on the course. The ADIWEAR outsole ensures a firm footing for powerful tee shots as well as precise putts. Particularly noteworthy is the comfortable cushioning of the Samba Golf, which makes it the ideal companion for long rounds on the course - without compromising on style.

Another plus: the Samba Golf is partly made from recycled materials. The upper material consists of at least 50% recycled content - a commitment by adidas to greater sustainability in sport.

Who is the Samba suitable for?

The adidas Originals Samba Golf is aimed at golfers who prioritize comfort and sustainability and want to wear one of the world's best-known sneakers on the course. Thanks to its versatility, it cuts an excellent figure not only on the Fairway, but also in the clubhouse and beyond.

Showing your colors on the golf course

The adidas Golf Originals collection stands for a change in golf that has long since begun: The sport is opening up, becoming more accessible, more colorful and more self-confident. Anyone who not only wants to play well on the course, but also wants to look good - and perhaps express their passion at the same time - will find the perfect companion in these models. The special editions make the collection a real statement.
