Favorite Brand of Golf shoes???


Recommended Posts

I have become a bit of an Ecco *****. I used to only wear the FootJoy Classics or Dryjoys. However, I had a chance to try on some Ecco's, and now I have 7 pair.

Hi, My name is Nic, and I have a shoe problem.

I used to wear only Nike, but I recently bought some Adidas, and I like them a lot better... more comfortable, but I have yet to play with them in wet/dewy conditions, so we will see...

Nic, the Imelda Marcos wanna-be clinic is down the hall to your right :lol:

 

If Ecco ever makes a men's spikeless model, I'm there! In the meantime, I'm liking my Puma Swing GTX and Footjoy Dryjoys. In the past, I've also liked the Etonic G-SOK

Ecco's are sweet. I had a pair of non-golf Ecco sandals that I wore until they were reincarnated back into cows.

 

Just bought my first pair of Footjoy Contours. Was amazed at the fit. I have a big ol' wide foot, and the 10.5 wide was too wide. Regular was perfect.

Stock spikes not so good though. Was getting some foot spin in the wet grass last round. Hopefully there is a stiffer spike out there.

My first golf shoes were Footjoys, and while they were very comfortable, I don't feel like they held up very well. I've been playing the same pair of adidas for 2+ seasons and they're still in good shape and I've got a back up pair waiting to come out of the box. I am 100% an Adidas guy now.

When it comes to shoes I am hands down an Adidas man. I think the Tour 360 line are some of the most comfortable shoes ever made. I do own a pair of Ecco's that are really comfortable as well though, but I always tend to lean towards my Adidas.

Adidas. Although you have to wear them in and I suggest you go a few rounds with a cart first before you start walking with them. But when you are swinging the club, they feel great.

I have Callaways TTX precision shoes that I bought for $25 brand new. They're not very comfortable but I couldn't resist at that price. My next pair would be FJs or ecco.

I have very wide feet and I've found only Footjoy and Nike make decent golf shoes for guys that have duck feet like myself. I haven't tried Ecco (yet), but they are really expensive and I can buy two pairs of the aforementioned brands at that price. And I'm really hard on golf shoes. ;)

I really like the PUMA SwingCrown GTX, although they're a bit on the pricey side. I'm also a fan of Callaway's Hyperbolic X. Normally I need a wide golf shoe, but in both of the above cases, the standard sizes fit fine.

The eccos don't come in widths.... so those of you with wide feet, sorry. I'm surprised how many people like the Adidas shoes. I find them to be very narrow, and not very comfortable. I have tried 3 different pair, and only one fits kind of ok. I am an Ecco man for life.

My last 2 pairs have been Adidas. I havent played in Footjoy's in a really long time and my Nike's I had were ok. I will either be getting a new pair of Adidas this season or Puma's. I actually want to try the Puma shoes.

I agree with you on Adidas. Even the wide sizes are very narrow.

Same here. I got a free pair of 10.5W with the R7 Limited last year. Toe box in the shoe was tiny. Gave them to my brother. The more I wear these new FJ Contours, the more I like them. I wasn't to big on the thin, waxed laces at first, but they stay nice and tight.

Yeah, I have a pair of FJ Contours and Dryjoys. The Contours are the more comfortable of the two out of the box but to be fair I haven't broke in the Dryjoys yet.

Did you keep the stock spikes that came in them. They seem too soft for me. I may put in the scorpion stingers.

I think that is the issue with the european sizing. My feet would look like sideshow bob's once I fit the width correctly.

I keep forgetting. sorry. No wides. Footjoy probably makes the best wide width shoe going today. Look into the MyJoys program. You can customize some really sick shoes.

They had a great contest with that a while back. Made some great ASU shoes and my boy made some camo ones he called "TANK".

Got more votes than mine.

I keep hearing this. I think when my adidas wear out it'll be between asics (my runner of choice for over a decade) and ecco.
