Adidas Code Chaos 25 golf shoes

For golfers who want high-performance, traditional-looking golf shoes, Adidas has offered the Tour360 for years. It has been updated numerous times to add more cushioning, stability, traction and comfort, but it still looks like a traditional golf shoe.

In 2020, Adidas debuted something different for golfers who want a sportier, fresh look without sacrificing performance: the original Code Chaos. Made using multi-layer mesh, the shoe was breathable, light and waterproof.

Code Chaos has been updated, and special versions have dropped, but Adidas is now set to release Code Chaos 25.

It has a transparent polyurethane film that makes the shoes waterproof while also creating a see-through look at the mesh and upper. 

There is a traditional lace-up version of Code Chaos 25 for both men and women, but Adidas is very excited about a BOA version. After putting your foot in the shoe, a zip-up piece covers the tongue to encase your foot fully. Then, by turning a small dial on the side of the shoe, golfers can gently tighten a wire system to achieve a personalized fit. The system…
