It’s been ten years since adidas first launched its Adizero line, and now it’s back — reimagined as the adidas Adizero ZG, a spikeless shoe that promises speed, stability, and style.
As a long-time fan of adidas golf shoes, I voted the Tour360 24 the best spiked women’s shoe of 2024, and the Codechaos 25 is still my go-to, so I was genuinely excited to see if this latest model could earn a spot among the best women’s golf shoes out there.
First impressions? I think they look fantastic. Sleek and modern, with a clean, technical vibe thanks to the mostly white upper and the classic three stripes. I really like the subtle pops of colour, a mix of reddish-orange, pink, and silver, which feel fresh and fun without being over the top. This kind of styling really appeals to me, similar to the Ecco Biom H5 textile model or Under Armour’s Phantom Fore.
I’m familiar with adidas sizing, and I’d recommend going up half a size for the best fit. This pair did feel slightly firm straight out of the box, but they didn’t take long to break in, and once they did, the comfort really came through.
On the course, the first thing you notice is how incredibly light they are. I never felt weighed down, and the Lightstrike Pro cushioning strikes a great balance between softness and responsiveness. There’s plenty of comfort to keep you going through 18 holes, but it’s not so plush that you lose that all-important ground feel.
Performance-wise, they live up to the hype. The SPIKEMORE outsole is the star of the show for me, it genuinely gives the same kind of grip and traction I’d expect from a traditional spiked shoe.
The undercut lugs around the edges, paired with the new Dynamic Torsion plate running from the middle of the foot to the front, made me feel totally grounded throughout my swing. There’s just enough spring without my foot shifting around, so I always felt in control, especially on uneven lies. Even with all that support, the outsole still feels really light, which adds to how easy and effortless these shoes are to wear.
Overall, I think these shoes are an excellent choice for serious golfers who prioritise modern design, reliable grip, and lightweight comfort. They may be a bit of an investment, but for golfers who value performance with a fresh edge, they're well worth considering.
