Above is the adidas adizero shoe that will be worn during U.S. Open week by Dustin Johnson and Jason Day.

Golf apparel is as much about performance as it is aesthetics now. Oh, and it's also about exposure. Hundreds of millions of dollars are spent by us amatuer players to at least try and look like (if not play like) the world's best - and we copy what we see out on Tour.

With the U.S. Open just around the corner, Odyssey Golf is feeling patriotic – so much so that the company has created a limited edition of its Versa #7 putter with a red, white and blue color scheme.

All the Versa models, of course, come standard with a bold black and white color scheme designed to help improve alignment. On this special model, the stripe right behind the face is blue, and a series of three small red dots on the crown also serve as an alignment aid.

Coming this fall, Cobra Golf will release a full line of Tour Trusty wedges. To get a little buzz going, the company has come out with a pretty unique teaser – a limited-edition Tour Trusty with stamping created by Rickie Fowler.

They're available now, but only 1,600 were made. All of them are 55-degree models stamped with Fowler’s famous #GoTime hashtag set off by his trademark orange paint fill.

Tiger Woods and Nike are nearing the completion of a new endorsement agreement that will "emphatically" keep Woods as the highest-paid endorser in golf, according to a report on ESPN.com.
