Adidas Stan Smith golf shoes released for 2021 Masters Dustin Johnson's 'Secret Weapon' at the masters

Just days before the 2021 Masters tournament, Adidas golf today has released a new Stan Smith golf shoe. A teaser video has also been released with current masters champion and Adidas staffer Dustin Johnson and legendary US tennis star and long-time Adidas collaborator Stan Smith.
