Masters Shoe Report: White Shoes, Green Grass, and a Touch of Azalea

At the 2025 Masters, the walk wasn’t just memorable for the roars and roars alone—it was in the shoes. From fairway to green, the footwear game leaned into tradition, balancing performance with subtle style. Across the board, white reigned supreme. Safe, simple, and unmistakably classic, it proved to be the color of choice for nearly every brand.

Still, beneath the clean canvas were pops of storytelling. Azalea pinks showed up in unexpected places—from outsoles to sock liners—paying homage to Augusta’s signature blooms. Earthy green tones offered grounding accents, nodding to the course’s natural palette. These weren’t loud statements, but quiet nods. Details you noticed if you looked closely.

Every major brand had its moment. Adidas debuted the new Tour360 25, with its signature 3-stripes in a Masters-ready green. FootJoy delivered both innovation and nostalgia, including heritage-inspired builds like the Premiere Series Field and Packard. Nike opted for storytelling with color, dropping special editions of their Free Golf, Victory Pro 4, and Infinity Tour lines, all with blooming details. Meanwhile, Payntr, Puma, and Reebok showed that they, too, understand the moment—offering modern performance wrapped in Augusta-friendly palettes.

In the end, 2025 felt less about pushing boundaries and more about respecting them. Players weren’t trying to steal the show with their shoes. They were trying to walk in step with tradition. At Augusta, that still matters.
