The adidas ZG23 has been making waves in the golf world and for a good reason. With a two-year gap since the release of its predecessor, the ZG21, adidas has gone all-in on revamping this model, making it lighter and more comfortable without sacrificing performance.

This new foam offers a softer, more cushioned feel while still providing the stability golfers need. Combined with the Lightstrike foam that makes up the exterior midsole, the ZG23 offers a soft yet stable shoe that provides instant step-in comfort.
Ultra-Light Stability Fin
The Ultra-Light Stability Fin, first introduced in the ZG21, has been redesigned for the ZG23 to provide even more stability for golfers of all swing speeds. This 3D fin wraps onto the upper, offering support on both the medial and lateral sides of the foot, ensuring a stable base throughout the swing.

Proto Concept is not yet a familiar brand to most golfers. So, I wouldn’t blame you if the Proto Concept Forged Wedge or Forged CB golf wedge didn’t land on your “must try” list of 2023.
That aside, what Proto Concept offers golfers is access to the quality, craftsmanship, and spec tolerances typically reserved for tour players. But like Kobe beef, refined taste buds require deep pockets.
Rich marbled meat, buttery flavors, and the finest forged clubs. Where do I sign up?
Proto Concept Refresher
Proto-C is a collaborative effort between the Endo forging house and the Golf Partner executive ownership group.
Golf Partner is the largest golf retailer in the world. It boasts nearly 400 retail locations and 550,000 in-stock clubs. It’s something like the Japanese equivalent to Starbucks but for golf equipment. I mention this primarily to illustrate that the company has a unique perspective and breadth of JDM market knowledge. Its leadership has a keen understanding of what works, what doesn’t, and most importantly, what resonates with the target audience.

Todd Snyder is no stranger to the world of golf fashion. Snyder and FootJoy teamed up for their debut collection in 2021. The fashion-forward, often polarizing pieces have proven successful. According to Snyder’s team, the brand has seen 50-percent year-over-year sales growth since the debut collection with FootJoy. When the opportunity to collaborate again presented itself, Snyder says he was eager to bring something even more iconic to the table.
“I am so excited to be working with FootJoy again to create a collection worthy of the pro tees. We’ve taken some of our favorite design details from the golden age of golf–including the luster of mercerised cotton sweater polos and the brogueing on a bespoke golf shoe–and combined them with state-of-the-art technology and modern style.
