Streetwear Meets the Fairway: New Gazelle & COURSECUP
Now available for golfers, the new range reimagines the brand’s history as a style leader, offering elevated apparel, footwear, and accessories for men and women, all featuring the famous adidas Trefoil logo.
With the lines between streetwear and on-course style continuing to blur, this collection embraces the culture of the game through a modern lens, drawing inspiration from the brand’s fashion-forward archives of the 70s and 80s.
“The adidas Trefoil logo was first introduced in 1972 and represents the convergence of fashion and culture through sport,” said Dylan Moore, Senior Creative Director of adidas Golf.
“We felt the time was right to reintroduce styles for golfers that are influenced by the fashion and culture of today.”
Iconic Footwear Reimagined for the Course
Headlining the collection is a series of new and updated footwear models that bring classic adidas silhouettes to golf:
- Gazelle Golf: For the first time ever, the legendary Gazelle comes to the course. Available for both men and women, it features a waterproof suede upper, enhanced cushioning for comfort, and a durable adiwear spikeless outsole for on-course support, all while maintaining its iconic profile.
- COURSECUP: This brand-new model is inspired by the GOLD CUP golf shoe from 1986. It features a genuine leather upper with classic wingtip detailing, a GRIPMORE spikeless outsole for versatile traction, and a stylish, removable kiltie.
- Updated Classics: The range also includes fresh updates to the ever-popular Stan Smith Golf and Samba Golf, each featuring rich, genuine leather uppers on their unmistakable designs.
“Over the past few years, we have worked hard to bring the classic adidas silhouettes to the course in a way that will offer golfers both function and style,” noted Masun Denison, Global Footwear Director of adidas Golf.
Premium Apparel and Accessories
The apparel in the Originals Golf range focuses on intricate designs and subtle details with a premium feel.

- For Women: The women’s range is highlighted by a Printed Trefoil Polo, a chic Pleated Skort with contrast tipping, a sleeveless Originals Dress, and a luxurious Cashmere Knit Sweater.
To complete the look, the collection also includes a full suite of premium accessories, including an Originals Golf Leather Glove, headcovers, carry bags, and a premium Boston Bag.
Shaun Madigan, Global Apparel Director of adidas Golf, added, “We used our heritage as our muse and created Originals Golf with that same mindset, with the ultimate goal of building out a premium assortment of apparel that represents the convergence of fashion and culture that we are seeing in the game.”
