Adidas ZG23 Golf Shoes Review

When Adidas released the ZG21 a few years ago I wrote in my review these could be golf shoes that re-revolutionize the already iconic brand.  And ZG21 came out of the gates guns blazing.  Collin Morikawa won The Open Championship in his debut appearance wearing ZG21.  Everyday golfers everywhere absolutely loved them.  And ZG21 quickly became my favorite pair of Adidas golf shoes that I've ever worn.

But Adidas is going to be Adidas.  And so they've made the new ZG23 even better.  And I'm talking in significant ways that you'll see and feel and notice immediately.  Without changing what ZG (Zero Gravity) is all about, ZG23 are softer in feel (all around really) without sacrificing stability.  They are more stable without sacrificing comfort (ZG23 are actually more comfortable).  And these even have better traction without adding any weight to the shoes.
