Best Golf Shoes I've Ever had on my feet

My feet are slightly narrow, and I get the best results from running shoe companies that shifted into golf. I have two pair of Nike shoes I wear and one pair of Adidas (still in the box). M-width fits great, and I don't need a custom order with them.

Focus, connect and follow through!

I tried a pair of Trues Linkswear - and yes, extremely comfortable. But a little goofy looking IMO.

New ones are not as "wide" (goofy) in the forefoot - this trend started with the Stealths, Chukkas, and the Tour Protos last year. And this year's line looks more "traditional" while still retaining the benefits of the original shoe.

I have the original True Tours and they are total clown shoes :-$ but comfortable as all get-out.

All of the above are the reasons I've point blank refused to try them. I don't need to look good on a course but at the same time I'd rather not look like Ronald McDonald playing golf even if they're the most comfortable shoes ever created. ;)

My favourite shoes ever were Nike Lunar Control and now the new version are even lighter and more comfy. Love them!

I don't think that the newer versions are clown shoe like anymore.  I have protos and sensei, and while they certainly have a little more room in the toe area than non-Trues, and they are more "rounded" instead of "pointy," they are not over the top clown-like.

Definitely roomy though.

What I like about Truelinks is that they run a bit wide. I am between a regular and a wide, so I have to go by brands that run a tad wider or have a ton of different width selections (new balance). I have the Truelinks Proto, in black with the red stripe, and a pair of brown with the red stripe. They do not work well with shorts, but any sort of pants they match up great. I plan on getting a pair of Truelinks in a more traditioanl sports shoe style for when I go shorts.

I've just had a look at the 2014 lineup and they seem to have decided to employ a designer now; some very nice styled shoes compared the to older rubber clogs style shoes they released (e.g. True Tour I think?). If they were easy to find in the UK to try on I'd definitely think about them now.

Ha! That is sooooo my sense of humor! Lol! I prefer Nike to anything else. Great blend of style and comfort. For me, I have narrow ballerina-like feet so something snug makes them feel stable. I like the TW13s and the Lunar Ascend.

Anyone tried the new TRUE model The Gent? Digging the look, but wondering if they have the same feel as the other models...

I agree 100%, I wear them around the house they are so comfy.

Just ordered a pair of TRUE Linkswear.  I think the "Stealth" model.  What got me was the "2 year" waterproof warranty.  I plan on wearing these for an everyday shoe around the office.  I also will not have to change shoes when I go straight from the office to the course.

I hate ecco shoes. They never fit well at all. The might be comfy, but they are just horrible for me when I walk in them.

Wait, golf shoes that don't have any type of spike or anything? How does that help you not slip?

On second thought, after looking at the prices, I don't pay more than $60 for shoes so it doesn't matter anyway.
