Under Armour is pushing golf footwear innovation forward with the Drive Pro Clone. Here’s how…

  • Under armour drive pro clone golf shoes: the details

Under Armour has released one of its most ambitious golf shoes to date. The launch of the Drive Pro Clone aims to solve one of the game’s most persistent footwear problems, and that is an inconsistent fit.

It is built to move with the golfer’s foot rather than forcing the foot to adapt to a fixed shape.

Under Armour are under the impression this has improved the comfort, made the stability better when swinging the club, and helping to produce more repeatable power throughout your round.

Here’s a closer look at how Under Armour has managed to do this…

Under Armour Drive Pro Clone Golf Shoes: The Technology

This golf shoe has already seen competitive golf with both Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen and, most recently, Patrick Reed wearing a pair of their way to victory.

At the heart of the Drive Pro Clone is Under Armour’s proprietary auxetic Clone upper. Unlike traditional leather or synthetic uppers, Clone behaves like a dynamic surface.

The material expands and contracts in response to pressure, allowing it to mould to the unique shape of a person’s foot. Quite ingenious if you ask me.

The Clone upper is paired with Under Armour’s Swing Support System, which is designed to keep the foot stable and supported during rotational movement.

It is a system that works with the adaptive upper to create a more connected feel between the golfer and the ground. This helps to improve energy transfer and more repeatable power.

By allowing the shoe to conform to the foot rather than resisting it, Under Armour claims the Drive Pro Clone offers a more stable platform through impact.

Who knew your golf shoe could be so responsible for your performance on the golf course?

For those interested, the Drive Pro Clone will be available in both spiked and spikeless versions. The spikeless option offers a lighter, more casual profile.

About the author

Max Mcvittie

A bit of a late bloomer to the game of golf, Max fell in love with the sport when he attended Saturday coaching sessions down at his local golf club after being inspired by friends and family members.

Max has remained a member of Eden Golf Club in Carlisle for a number of years now as he looks to get his handicap down into single figures. Most of his golfing career has been spent battling a permanent slice off the tee, which has led to some ugly rounds.

Having studied at the University of Sunderland, Max is starting out his dream career in sports journalism. During his time at university, he picked up valuable work experience at Reach PLC, BBC Radio Cumbria and GiveMeSport, whilst also getting work published in the Teesside Live. He also spent time working at a local weekly newspaper, Eskdale and Liddesdale Advertiser, as a general news reporter partially covering some local sport just north of the border in Langholm.

Max has just started his journey with the NCG working as the assistant equipment editor. He looks forwarded to reviewing the latest golf equipment, taking up an interest in reviews when buying his first golf club, a Cleveland RTX wedge.

With his bag not going under too many changes throughout the last few years, Max carries an M3 driver, Titleist GT3 Fairway Wood, M2 hybrid, a set of M2 irons, Callaway Jaws wedges and a TaylorMade Spider putter. And yes, Max is a bit of a self-proclaimed TaylorMade fan boy.
