Poll: How Many Pairs of Golf Shoes Do You Own?

[ED13]

I have four pairs of spiked Adidas Tour Boost from various years (two white, two black).  Just like my other shoes I rotate them.  Also have a pair of last years spikeless Tour  Boost for hitting indoors.

[Alf. S]

8 For me.

1. 3 spikeless,
   1. ECCO general purposes hard wearing used in summer and hard ground conditions
   2. Puma Ignite used on holiday, lighter
   3. ECCO Biom, which mark really easily and tend only to be used occasionally
2. 5 Spiked
   1. Winter golf boots
   2. Callaway Black CHEV with metal spikes again Winter
   3. Callaway Black CHEV Mulligan soft spikes 
   4. Adidas White 360 Tour (need broken in) blister generators
   5. Under Armour White soft spikes

I thought I had a problem but reading a few others, I feel much better.

2 - Sketchers, not my favorite looks wise but they are very comfortable and very durable.

3 - Under Armour, favorite looking shoes, not as comfortable as the others and not nearly as durable.  The backs rip faster than any other shoe.  Hoping the have figured this out with the new backs on the HOVRs.

1 - Adidas, my first spikeless shoes I ever really liked.

1 - Puma, hardly ever wear these as they give me blisters and aren't very comfortable.

2 - Jordan ADG, I know, I know, not exactly the traditional golf shoe but was talked into buying one from a buddy that claimed they were the most comfortable golf shoe on the market.  I completely agree and now have the black and white ones

I’m thinking about posting an unofficial review, but I just got some HOVR Match Play’s and they definitely seemed to have solved this problem. I only have two rounds on them so it’s tough to speak to durability but it seems to me they’ve fixed this issue.

I think you are right, the pronounced piece on the back seems to be more durable.  It does slip a little on my foot but doesn't produce a blister.  We'll see I guess

My wife just made me clear out some of the old ones.

So now I have 1 FootJoy Super light. Black

1 Pair of Adidas 360 Tour Boa. Black

3 Pair of Nikes

1 AirZoom direct. Brown

1 Lunarlon. Gray

1 Spikless. Blue

She made me get rid of the Nike Lunarlon White and orange that was a few years old, Nike Lunarlon Dark blue, Nike Lunarlon White and black.

And my original Adidas Traxion.

To be fair most of my shoes are purchased from outlet stores, like Burlington, TJ Maxxx and Marshals.

I think for the 5 left in the collection I paid about 120 altogether, with the most expensive being the 360 Boa for 24.99.

Burlington is a great place to find shoes and Polos at a great price.

I've always just had 1 pair of golf shoes at any one time, but I recently purchased 2 new pairs, and might even buy another. Why you might ask? Awkward Feet! I'm not sure if my feet are getting more misshapen over time, or if all shoes are just getting narrower and/or wider, but I have the hardest time finding shoes that fit correctly. D width shoes are too narrow and 2E width shoes are too wide. My Goldilocks width would be an E, but of course no one purposefully makes that size. Instead, I have to try on dozens of shoes until I find that one model that has a wider than normal D, or a narrower than normal 2E. This time, I stumbled onto the Callaway Solana TRX after 2 different golf stores. After the Callaways still felt good after a couple rounds, I bought a 2nd pair! I'm now thinking about buying a 3rd pair just so I can prolong the future shoe search a little longer! I mean they do come in 3 colors, and I already have the White and the Black...

Does anyone else have this much trouble finding shoes??

[Headhammer]

I voted 3, but I forgot about the Nike's, which are so uncomfortable I wore them just once.

2 Puma

1 Under Armour

1 Nike

[sroel908]

2 pairs of Puma BioDrive leather spikeless shoes (the most comfortable and functional spikeless pair I've ever worn), one in brown and one in white/gray

1 pair of Puma Faas Lite Mesh spikeless shoes in black/white

1 pair of Puma Faas Lite Non-Mesh spikeless shoes in blue/white/black

1 pair of Nike Air...something...spiked saddle shoes from a while ago in white/black/neon green

1 pair of Nike Air Zoom TW 2010  spiked shoes in black/red (I mean, what other colors would they be?!)

2 pairs of Nike TW71 FastFit spiked shoes, one in black and one in white

[yungkory]

8 total but currently "only" 4 of them in rotation. The other 4 are a few seasons old but I'm a shoe nerd so I keep them in good condition. All Nikes -- no swoosh, no thanks!

Just one: Footjoy Dryjoys Tour in the croc pattern.

I read this too quickly and at first thought you were golfing in crocs...

[MDGolfHacker]

I have 4.. 3 footjoys (2 black and one white/brown), and a pair of Nikes(black).  The sole on the Nikes separated from the shoe so they just got thrown away and the black footjoy is showing some stitching issues on the toe area. All have spikes. I'll probably get another pair of footjoys in white and one in black but  debating whether to go spikeless or not.

For my Nikes, I take them to the Redwing shoe store and have them stretch it a little, as they always fit too narrow and it take forever to stretch them whit my feet.

5 Bucks and two days and they fit perfect.

Use: two (might be down to one after this last week).

Own: four.

Anyone looking for some shoes?

I mean, as long as the wife does not find out about it, I'll take you on some.

Any of them 12 Wide?

Good tip, but sad you have to do that for what Nike charges for their shoes. I put stretching shoe horns in them for months and they still hurt my feet!

That is tough, whatever solution and horn type they use, it stretched the shoes width too, so I got them to fell much more comfortable after taking it to them.

Nikes always run narrower than any other shoes, I have ever had.

I'm just going to leave it here. 

Dicks has a lot golf shoes on clearance

One pair, original Adidas 360s. Don't wear them often, only when weather warrants. Barefoot most of the time.

Nope.  I did used to wear FJ golf sandals in the summer though, which probably isnt far off Crocs.

[BrownBearGolf]

I’ve got two pair of Adidas (Tour 360/ Code Chaos) and two pair Ecco Biom Hybrid 2.  
Here is my review of the amazing Code Chaos!  Please take a look.  I also have reviews of Arccos Caddie up as well. 

 

[tdroma98]

3 Pairs -  2 Pairs of Ecco's spikeless and 1 Pair Footjoy Flex

Has anyone had issues with Nike Golf Shoes?  Stopped buying cause they only last maybe 6 mos.  Heels blow out.  Frustrating.   Especially since I'm into my 3rd yr with Ecco's and play 4 times a week. 

[Watchnut33]

I have a pair of older FJ dry joys that I wear if it’s a little muddy during practice, a newer pair of FJ S/Ls that I rotate with a pair of Adidas Tech Response spikeless. 

[Middler]

Posted earlier, had 3 pairs, now up to 4! But it’s because I bought a second pair of Adidas CodeChaos spikeless in another color - they’re the best golf shoes I’ve ever owned. I don’t want to wear my FJ DryJoys or Contours spiked shoes anymore! I thought I’d need my spikes in the rain or wet courses, but that’s not even true. I wish I never bought my spikes now. I’ll force myself to wear the DryJoys occasionally but I’m probably going to pitch the Contours.

I play with guys who only have 1 pair of golf shoes, a few with 2. They probably think I’m nuts. Also a couple guys who have 1 jacket they wear playing golf, I can’t imagine, but to each his/her own.

[tony@CIC]

I'm down to 4 pair only because I finally threw out 2 pair.

Let's see

2 Adidas
2 Footjoy (had 3, blew out on 2nd round)
1 Sketchers
1 Puma
1 Trulinks


Take Dead Aim

Update. I got rid of my Adidas. I was an Adidas guy forever but the last pair of Tour360 I got were damn uncomfortable. So now:

3 Footjoy - Lite in black, Pro SL in gray, and just ordered the Arc XT in black.

1 Puma in white & navy

1 TrueLinkswear in white/gray/orange

1 Sketchers in white. This is the most comfortable pair.

1 Nike in white and red. Looking for these 2 pairs:

4....a cheap pair of Foot Joys, a pair of Ecco’s, a pair of Puma’s with the boa lacing system and the pair I wear most often spikeless Skechers

3 FootJoy Dry Joys

2 Puma

2 Nike

1 Adidas

Just gave two other pair away to a new golfer. One was Nike still new in the box. Clearance for $10.00. Just didn't like them. The other was a Dry Joy slightly small for me.
