Under Armour Reveals New Gold Edition Drive Pro Series Golf Shoes

It's always a noteworthy day when Under Armour releases new golf shoes, and that's what golfers have to relish following the launch of the Gold Edition Drive Pro Series for the Spring/Summer 2025 season.

Celebrating the overwhelming success of the Drive Pro Series’ 2024 debut - where it secured top honours along with its own Grand Slam of major media awards from leading golf publications - this latest iteration introduces a striking gold edition colorway in both the Drive Pro Spiked and Drive Pro SL models.

What You Need to Know

Engineered to elevate every golfer’s game, the Drive Pro Series delivers superior traction, stability, and comfort, with performance benefits scientifically validated through live data testing. Under Armour has consistently demonstrated measurable gains in clubhead speed, ball speed, and carry distance, making the Drive Pro a game-changing tool on the course.

At the core of this innovation is the Swing Support System, a revolutionary three-layer structure developed with world-renowned biomechanist JJ Rivet. This science-backed design ensures a 360-degree foot lockdown, optimising both lateral and medial stability. Meanwhile, UA HOVR foam and Charged Cushioning enhance responsiveness and provide essential support, guiding the foot’s natural motion throughout the golf swing for increased power and control.

Jake Haley, Head of Golf Footwear at Under Armour, said: "The Gold Edition is more than just a bold new colourway - it’s a statement of excellence and a testament to our relentless pursuit of innovation. "

"At Under Armour, our mission is to make athletes better, and this shoe embodies that commitment by delivering tangible performance benefits. The chrome gold outsole plate isn’t just for looks - it highlights the biomechanically engineered Swing Support System, which has been scientifically proven to enhance stability, maximise energy transfer, and ultimately improve a golfer’s swing efficiency. Every detail of the Drive Pro Series has been designed to provide measurable results on the course."

Trusted by Golf’s Elite Players

Already a go-to choice for top athletes worldwide, the Drive Pro Series is making an impact across professional tours. On the PGA Tour, Jordan Spieth and Maverick McNealy trust the Drive Pro, with McNealy securing his first PGA Tour victory at the RSM Classic and earning three top-10 finishes in early 2025, including a runner-up at the Genesis Invitational. The shoe has also gained traction on the Korn Ferry Tour, where Christo Lamprecht, who signed with Under Armour in 2024, has already recorded two top-5 finishes in just four starts this season. Additionally, on the DP World Tour, the product is now worn by the exciting young talents of England’s Kris Kim, who made his PGA Tour debut at the CJ Cup in 2024, and Denmark’s Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen, who already has two top 10s to his name in 2025 since making the switch to Drive Pro.

Improved Performance

Jake Haley, Head of Golf Footwear at Under Armour, underscores the significance of the Gold Edition, emphasising that it represents more than just a striking new aesthetic.

The PGA Show Demo Day put the Drive Pro Series to the test, delivering performance data that validated its game-changing impact. Over 50 testers saw an average increase of 11 yards in total carry, 2.5 mph in clubhead speed, and 4 mph in ball speed compared to their previous footwear. This breakthrough showcases the shoe’s ability to optimise power and control - reinforcing Under Armour’s position at the forefront of golf footwear innovation.

With cutting-edge technology, athlete-driven design, and undeniable results, the Gold Edition Drive Pro Series is more than just a shoe - it’s a competitive edge for golfers aiming to take their game to the next level.

The Gold Edition Drive Pro Series is now available on UA.com and at select golf retailers. The Drive Pro Spiked is priced at £150 / €170, while the Drive Pro SL retails for £130 / €150. Both models come with a one-year waterproof warranty, ensuring long-lasting performance in any playing conditions.
