I Tested 45 Golf Shoes This Year. These 3 Aren’t Getting Nearly Enough Love

I’ll make this short.

I’m a professional shoe tester. I’ve worn and tested well over 120 pairs of golf shoes in the past four years. This year alone, I tested more than 45 pairs.

There are a lot of good ones and a few bad ones. And, of course, a few hidden gems that no one is talking about (but should be).

If you’re in the market for a new pair of golf shoes, don’t be afraid to give these three pairs a try.

1. Skechers Blade Tour SI

I know, I know. I talk about Skechers a lot. But you would, too, if you had worn something so darn comfortable. The Skechers Blade Tour SI is hands-down the best spiked golf shoe of the year, yet you barely see anyone wearing it.

Give this on a go; you won’t be disappointed.

2. TravisMathew NuAge Mega

I’ll be you didn’t even know TravisMathew makes a golf shoe. But they do and it’s glorious. It’s probably the most cushioned golf shoe I’ve ever worn so if you want something with Hoka-like comfort, this is the one to get.

3. Under Armour Drive Pro Clone

Yet another big name that no one is talking about. Under Armour has quietly revived its golf line over the last few years and the culmination of its work has led to a pretty incredible product in the Drive Pro Clone.

It’s got some of the best material/fabric tech on the market (just Google what Clone is) and they fit so darn good.

      $170, $180, $200 for “under the radar” golf shoes. Hmm…

      I like the red/black colorway

      A Google search returns as only available overseas (?)

      I am a frugal person. Although I have several pair of golf shoes, none of which I paid over $100 for. I don’t mind buying shoes on sale and some places have some great golf shoe sales. I do like Skechers but wouldn’t pay that much for a pair. I have 4 pair of Skechers, 3 of which are Step-ins and, 2 of those are Pure SI. The other Step-in is a little older and a BOA Step-In. I find Skechers to be pretty comfortable, and I’m a walker, well, when the heat index isn’t in the 90s.

      I will pass on all 3. I am old and any sneaker looking shoe is not for me.
      I wore FJ Dryjoys for years and still have some in rotation but also have and like the FJ Premiers.

      Travis Mathew is one of the most expensive companies in the golf market. I refuse to pay $130.00 for a golf shirt what a rip.
