Comfortable Golf Shoes


SirShankalot

Recommended Posts

I've been having a look for a new pair of golf shoes but not really sure what to go for. I've heard good things about Skechers but at the moment they don't really design a shoe that I like the look of. 

 

Does anyone have any recommendations?

are you thinking spikeless or spiked?

I have a pair of the spikeless Adidas Adipower Boost 3 and they are the best golf shoes I've ever owned. So comfortable!

... I really hate the fact that many shoe OEM's have gone to "pointy toes" for fashion. I almost always walk and need an athletic shoe with a normal rounded toe like all athletic shoes. Skecher did this with their GoGolf Elite 2 version where the original was more comfortable with a rounded toe. Oh well, I am still using FootJoy Athletic shoes and are the only golf shoe I have worn in the last 10 years as they were very comfortable right out of the box. When they went on sale I bought 4 pair and still have 2 pair left:

a lot of people seem to really like the BOA lacing vs. standard lacing.  something to think about as that could contribute a lot towards the comfort of the shoe.

I've really enjoyed the Footjoy Hyperflex and DNA. The BOA system is very nice. Both super comfortable and athletic feeling. I recently tried the Freestyle too and it was like putting my foot in a pillow. Very athletic and flexible. Just a little too soft for me. All of my shoes are spiked. I slip in all conditions with spineless shoes.

the only spiked shoes I have are Foot joy Freestyle and they are pretty comfortable.   moreso than the old Adidas Tour 360's I had a couple years ago.  I mainly go spikeless however so I haven't tried a ton of spiked shoes except in the store when I decided on the Freestyle

I have quite a few pairs 

 

Adidas Powerband boost boa golf shoes. these are really comfortable yet I feel I should have gone half a size bigger.

Sketchers go golf pro LX. I had to buy an after market insole for these as the ankle cuff is quite high and digs into my ankle the thicker insole stops this. So, in reality, they are no good for me.

FootJoy Dryjoy tours. These are class act they look the least comfortable but do not let that fool you. I would recommend these overall.

I have these in black and I am seriously considering a white pair.

The FootJoy freestyle is catching my eye yet so did the Adidas and Sketchers and they just don't cut the mustard in comparison.

I once had a pair of Ecco's and they were not only the most comfortable golf shoes but probably the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn.

 

They are CRAZY EXPENSIVE but man they are incredible...

check your spikes on those freestyles. Tried to replace mine this season and they just spin around and don't come out. Footjoy sent me a brand new pair!!

... Fwiw, I tried a couple pair of Ecco's and they gave me blisters on my heel. Just not a secure fit for me but I do have some walking issues from so many sprains in my high school and college days playing football and basketball. A shame really as I also found them very comfortable and bought my wife a pair of walking Eccos that she loves. Just check for any heel movement when you walk around the store, but again it may just be me.

I just bought these Adidas Boost 2 golf shoes. Love them a ton for the comfort and look. I didn't know playing golf could be this comfortable and I walk every time I play. They've got a little bit of "bounce" in the heel for extra comfort.

 

TGW has a good deal running now

I agree, I was a FJ man forever until I read the article about spikeless on the forum. I'm sold on my GoGolfs!

I love the FJ HyperFlex. So comfortable

It was between those and the Boost when I made my choice. My wife told me the hyperflex was ugly so I got the boost. The women sure do love to dress us huh?

The Nike Lunar range are super comfortable and are waterproof. Not too expensive either. For dry days the various adidas "primeknit" options are excellent. The only shoes my feet don't sweat in.

I have a wide foot... anyone that has to buy wide shoes have a favorite?

 

Right now I have the Tour360 and they're great ... but I'll need to upgrade soon.

I have a wide foot as well and find their newer version (adiboost I believe) of those are just as good and about the same width

... If you like an athletic type shoe, the Hyper Lite comes in wide sizes:

I just bought the FootJoy DNA Helix BOA shoes and love them. It's the first time I've had a golf shoe with the BOA system so it was a little different at first but once you get used to it they are very convenient. Most importantly, they are extremely comfortable. I've worn them for about 10 rounds so far and haven't had any wear on the topside of shoe or grip issues with the spikes. Once again, FootJoy has put out a quality product!

I 2nd the Adidas Boost, great shoe. I use spikeless, great fitting shoe that feels ur whole foot is secure. Lots of the new shoes leave me feeling like my ankle is loose and not supported, good luck

I have several different FJ and Puma spikeless shoes that I'll wear for work or casual events but when it's time to tee it up, I only wear my FJ Hyperflex because of the stability on the course and the comfort to walk 18+

I for one am kind of a stick-in-the-mud when it comes to quality footwear. I ONLY buy USA-made stuff almost to a fault and hate myself when I have to give into cheap crap. At work I wear Danner Light II's or their Quarry USA line when a steel toe is required. For hunting I have an old pair of Browning's that are super comfy. When bowling I sport my Dexter USA SST 1's. My tennie-runners are of course blue and orange (Go Broncos!) New Balance 993's and then around the house I have these insanely priced Quoddy Fireside Campers that I love. The above little set retails to the higher side of a grand or better.

 

Yes I am that sick...

 

When I began to finally catch this golf bug earlier this year, I just knew I'd never find anything USA-made at any store anywhere, so began a quest to find "retro" or "vintage" golf shoes. The sickness continues... I settled on grabbing 2-pairs (1 white & 1 black) of the handmade Footjoy Classics Tour line on eBay-and got them BNIB!.Though there is some amount of break-in period to them, I am quite satisfied and have that personal piece-of-mind I need-whew!

 

Quite stylish too I might add, and I get many positive compliments on them as well. Along with my Kentwool sock (thanks forums!), I am stepping with style! B)
