Who should buy the Adidas Tech Response
The Adidas Tech Response is a golf shoe that is packed with style and tech. It is a solid option if you:
- Need a shoe that has Thintech EXP cleats complemented by Traxion tech and provides reliable traction without compromising ground feel, stability, and durability.
- Need a shoe that has spikes in the mesh and synthetic upper and infuses breathability while facilitating structure.
Adiwear rubber traction
Seated at the bottom of the Tech Response is the Adiwear rubber traction. Those familiar with the brand would know that this durable and non-marking outsole innovation originally started in tennis footwear. While this comes perfect for high-abrasion areas, it is also useful in long-distance walking on golf courses.
Excellent ground grip
Each movement in golf entails an excellent ground grip. This is addressed through the generously applied 6 Thintech EXP cleats. In effect, traction, durability, stability, and traction are all improved without damaging the greens.
Working in complementary with the cleats are secondary lugs called Traxion. The shape of each lug is tapered, giving maximum ground anchor while minimizing the pressure points on the foot.
Comfortable cushioning
Squeezed in the middle of the upper and outsole is a soft EVA foam. It cushions the foot and increases comfort.
Breathable upper
The men’s and women’s versions of the Adidas Tech Response have minor differences, mainly in how materials are used. The gentlemen can enjoy mesh and leather, both of which are positioned strategically. The breathable upper is almost on the entire shoe-sidewalls, toe part, and tongue. Synthetic leather gives structure to the shoe and facilitates durability.
The ladies’ model utilizes microfiber leather on the toe and heel area while the sides have used textiles, incorporating air on the interior.
Snug fit
The combination of upper materials delivers a snug fit that wraps the foot comfortably. The strategic placement of synthetic leather gives a similar design to the traditional saddle. A traditional lace-up serves as its closure, locking the foot into place.
