So I was in need of a new pair of golf shoes and I found a pair of Puma Harpias on sale, 40% off so I grabbed them.

Cleaning the soles after the first round and I noticed that the left and right soles are different. Not massively so, but different enough.

The salesman was raving on about some feature that was supposed to make you swing better but I honestly tuned out.

So the question is are they meant only for right handed golfers? Or did I somehow end up with two different shoes (that look exactly alike)....

From what i remeber the sales man saying as the feet have different stresses on them in a golf swing the shoes are designed to encourage grip where needed and slip where needed....

Thoughts?

That didn't mention it. A few online reviews and stores mentioned the "directional" nature of the "Quill" cleats and the little added tractional spikes on the sole.

I've seen "directional" shoes before but they're typically for righties or lefties. They're more about the way the feet rotate, or they're both directionally oriented "inward" so that they're symmetrical (to each other).
