Feet firmly grounded, Spieth puts a sensible shoe forward
Malibu, United States
THE golf shoes on display in a backroom at Nobu Malibu, a restaurant overlooking the Pacific Ocean, would have looked at home in the nearby Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles. They were artwork for the sole, pairs of shoes adorned with leis, plaid, a California grizzly bear and numbers - notable scores and finishes that marked steps in the ascent of Jordan Spieth's career.
The Spieth One shoes available soon at an Under Armour retail outlet near you are not at all like the decorative footwear that caught the eye of those at the US introduction of Spieth's new spikes. The Spieth One is distinctive in ways that do not catch the eye: the springiness, the snug heel support and the wide placement of the spikes for better stability.
