The Under Armour Tempo Tour Golf Cleat emerged in April 2016, marking a pivotal moment in the brand's expansion into the golf footwear market. This launch was a strategic move, positioning Under Armour alongside established players with models like the UA Drive One and Tempo Hybrid. The cleat's development integrated the expertise of biomechanics specialist Jean-Jacques Rivet, focusing on optimal heel bone stabilization.
Designed explicitly for performance on the golf course, the Tempo Tour Golf Cleat emphasizes stability and grip. The outsole features a nine-cleat system, incorporating Champ Zarma Tour spikes with Spike-Lok technology, ensuring maximum traction. The inclusion of a removable molded sockliner adds to the comfort and stability, allowing for a customized fit tailored to the wearer's needs.
The Under Armour Tempo Tour Golf Cleat gained immediate recognition with its presence on the feet of elite athletes. Jordan Spieth, a celebrated figure in the golf world, was seen sporting the cleat during the 2015 FedEx Cup Tour Championships. Gary Woodland, another prominent golfer, showcased the Tempo Tour at the launch event held at TopGolf Austin, Austin, Texas, on March 22, 2016. These endorsements underscored the cleat's early impact within the sport.
The Tempo Tour boasts a full-grain, perforated leather upper, treated with a water-repellent membrane, promising a two-year waterproof guarantee. Its construction integrates a Charged Cushioning® midsole, engineered to deliver both energy return and adaptive support for the wearer. Additional features include a lace-up closure and an external heel counter/TPU wrap, providing exceptional heel stabilization.
