The FootJoy Pro/SL is the best golf shoe FootJoy has ever made. Period. They changed the last, and it changed the fit in the best way possible. No shoe rivals the Pro/SL when it comes to combination of fit, comfort and traction.
FootJoy’s updated last made a huge difference. No shoe we tested this year fits as well as the Pro/SL
The nylon plate in the forefoot and the one-to-one fit make the FootJoy Pro/SL one of the most stable golf shoes on the market.
While testers found the Pro/SL to be very comfortable, it doesn’t provide the squishy softness that some walkers tend to enjoy. Rather, it provides firm yet responsive cushion for 18 holes and beyond.

My new Pro/SLs just arrived Friday. Fit is great, as always. Have worn that line for many years. Love them. These do have a wide toe box. Got the Navy/White and cannot wait to get out on the course with them. Am grounded right now. Had successful surgery (Turp procedure) last Thursday and should be released in another week. Had back surgery in October and was released three weeks ago by Neurosurgeon. One step forward two steps backswords. Should be a good year for golf and traveling the world. New shoes with stability and cool looking. Thanks FootJoy. Kudos.

Because this is a NOT a BOA design, let’s get this out of the way first.
Frankly, it’s silly we have to talk about this stuff, given that golf shoes serve an actual purpose. (FYI, that purpose isn’t to make you feel like you’re trendy AF, Connor/Tony.) That said, for those who are oft offended by the modern design and superior performance of BOA-enabled designs, I suspect the FootJoy Pro/SL will be among the least objectionable.
The Pro/SLX offers a single BOA dial and a simple design that looks more like laces than the flaps systems found in many recent models. Frankly, if FootJoy and BOA had seen fit to thread the TX6 textile lace underneath or maybe even through a traditional lace, heel dial notwithstanding, not even Jacques Slade would likely notice.
FootJoy Pro/SL NON- BOA golf shoes
So, if you’re inclined to feign outrage over something, it shouldn’t be the style, the fit or function. If anything, get mad about the fact that the FootJoy Pro/SL is available in BOA, but in 2026 you are still testing the laced version.
Let’s all pause to shake our fists in anger.
