Under Armour is pushing golf footwear into its next era with the launch of the Drive Pro Clone Golf Shoes. Built to help golfers move more naturally and play with greater confidence in changing conditions, Drive Pro Clone is designed around one clear goal - delivering a more personalised fit and a more stable, consistent platform throughout the entire round.
Created through material science, design precision and course-tested performance, Drive Pro Clone brings a new approach to one of golf's biggest footwear challenges: the fact that traditional shoes often struggle to match the natural shape and movement of a golfer's foot.
Many golf shoes are built around a single, fixed shape. While that can work for some golfers, it often creates small compromises in real-world play - areas of pressure, gaps in support and reduced comfort as the round goes on. Under Armour developed Drive Pro Clone to reduce those compromises by building a shoe that adapts to the golfer, rather than forcing the golfer to adapt to the shoe.
"Traditional golf shoes create gaps, pressure points and lost power because they're built around a single, fixed shape," said Jake Haley, Senior Manager of Golf Footwear and Apparel at Under Armour. "With the Drive Pro Clone, we set out to eliminate those compromises entirely. Every golfer deserves a shoe that adapts to them, not the other way around."
At the centre of Drive Pro Clone is Under Armour's proprietary auxetic Clone upper. Rather than behaving like a static fabric, the material is designed to expand, contract and shape itself to the unique geometry of your foot. This creates a more adaptive fit that stays consistent throughout a full round - even as conditions change, terrain varies and fatigue sets in.
"Clone adapts to the shape and movement of your foot, helping maintain the same level of support from your first swing to your last," said Kyle Blakely, SVP of Innovation and Design Studio at Under Armour. "Because the material behaves like a dynamic surface rather than a traditional textile or leather, athletes get a more consistent fit, better energy transfer and a more stable platform throughout the entire round."
Fit is only half the story - the other half is what the shoe allows you to do during the swing. Drive Pro Clone is engineered to work in combination with Under Armour's Swing Support System, helping golfers create a more stable base and more repeatable movement through impact.
With dual-foam cushioning supporting comfort and underfoot stability, and UA S3 spikes providing dependable grip through rotation, the result is confidence-inspiring traction and balance when you need it most - particularly on uneven lies and in damp conditions.
Drive Pro Clone is offered in both spiked and spikeless options, allowing golfers to choose the traction style that best matches their course conditions and playing preferences. Spiked models prioritise maximum grip and stability through the swing, while spikeless designs offer versatile traction that transitions comfortably from fairway to clubhouse.
The Under Armour Drive Pro Clone Golf Shoes are set to launch at Click Golf February 6. With adaptive fit technology, tour-level stability features and spiked or spikeless choices, Drive Pro Clone is designed to meet the needs of modern golfers who want comfort and performance to work together - not compete.
Under Armour Drive Pro Clone is a bold step forward in golf footwear. By combining an adaptive Clone upper with a stability-focused support system and traction options built for the demands of the swing, it delivers a shoe that feels more natural on the foot while promoting consistency in motion. If you're looking for a high-performance golf shoe designed to fit better, move better and hold up across an entire round, Drive Pro Clone deserves a place at the top of your list.
