As April approaches, golf fans worldwide can hear the familiar piano tune that signals the arrival of The Masters. This tournament is not just another event; it is the first major of the year and carries special significance within the golfing community. It marks the end of the long wait between majors and brings back cherished memories of iconic shots, thrilling Sunday charges, the coveted green jacket, and even the famous Pimento Cheese sandwich.
The anticipation surrounding The Masters also excites equipment and apparel companies. In the coming weeks, we can expect an array of limited-edition releases as the focus of the golf world shifts to Augusta, Georgia. Earlier this year, Asics introduced the Japan S golf shoe, inspired by some of the original designs from 1981. When these shoes were first announced, they were released in four colorways, hinting that something special was on the way. Today, Asics has officially released the White and Jasper Green versions.
“In the spirit of the season’s first major championship, we wanted to offer a shoe that coincides with one of the biggest events in men’s golf in a cool way that gets people even more excited. We know springtime is when everyone is itching to get out on the course, and we feel like this colorway was a perfect way to officially start the golf season for everyone.”
Ryan Polanco, ASICS General Manager
Japan S presents a fantastic option for those looking to bring style both on and off the course. They feature a flexible synthetic leather upper paired with a spikeless outsole that Asics designed to provide traction where necessary. The stud design offers additional grip under the ball of your foot, which is crucial for swing rotation. Additionally, the heel of the shoe features prominent grip pods that enhance stability during your swing and while walking the course. They also include a water-resistant layer to help keep your feet dry during those dew-sweeping rounds.
