adidas Golf’s limited-edition Crossknit DPR Low Am shoe pays tribute to the low amateur at the Masters.
Ahead of the 2020 Masters, adidas have revealed a limited-edition version of their Crossknit DPR golf shoe that celebrates the amateurs in the field at Augusta National and the club’s famous Crow’s Nest accomodation they stay in.

A rich green lining with “LOW AM” branding gives a nod to the unique carpet found throughout the amateur’s lodging for the week, while a specialty tab on the tongue represents the familiar windowpanes.
In the follow-through of the swing, people will also notice the words “LOW” and “AM” embedded underneath the sole of the left and right foot, respectively.

“Whenever we do footwear like this, we always look for the subtle storylines that make a tournament special,” said Masun Denison, global director of footwear, adidas Golf.
“This year, we thought it would be fitting to celebrate the unique experience the small group of amateurs get when they head to Augusta and sleep steps from the first tee, hoping to hang on until Sunday so that they can earn the right to be called the Low Amateur and have a chair next to that year’s champion.”

The Crossknit DPR is built on adidas’ extremely comfortable Ultraboost running midsole in a textile upper with supportive Forgegrame technology to help keep golfers stable throughout the swing.
The shoe comes in a special box and includes an exclusive dust bag to commemorate the moment.
The Crossknit DPR Low Am golf shoe will be available at www.adidas.co.uk from November 9 priced £139.95.
