golf shoes

[doublesuited77]

need to get another pair of golf shoes. I really haven't liked any shoes i've had in the past few years. any recos would be welcomed.

What kind of shoe did you have before? And what's your budget like?

I as well was in the market for new shoes, cause well, my Nike's were not cutting it. I just put in an order to get a pair of FootJoy Contours. They are $149.00 CAD (Around $135-140 in USD I assume?). They were extremely comfortable when I tried them on. Night and day difference with my old Nike SP5 II's. Hope it helps, good luck with your search!

I got a pair of black callaway's at Dicks for $50 and they are almost exactly the same as my previous pair of FJ's that were $80.

look at oakley too, they dont look like the average golf shoe. they can be had on ebay for a cheap price. i have nikes and i like them so far but they are almost brand new still.

If you are looking for something more like a tennis shoe which is very nice if you walk almost all of your rounds, try looking at Bite.

I love my Adidas Powerbands. They are very comfortable.

My footjoy contours are pretty comfy, I have to say. I am saving up for some DryJoy classics, or some Adidas powerbands.

I picked up Ecco's on ebay for 90 bucks shipped... Best shoes I've ever owned.

I also have a pair of Footjoy Classics that are pretty darn comfortable however, just too dressy for day to day wear.

I tried the Powerbands but they were too stiff for me I thought... Tour Metal's were nice though

I would go with the Adidas Tour 360 or the Powerband. Adidas makes the most comfortable golf shoe in my opinion. I had only worn FJ, but decided to try out some Adidas because I liked the look of them. I glad I did.

Does anyone else find the Powerband shoes heavy? Had a chance to see them in the shop today and was surprised at how heavy they felt. Thanks for any info.

I have a pair of footjoys for $50 and walter hagens for $90. The footjoys are not as comfortable (they are older also) but they have endured. I use these shoes to caddie in and have caddied for almost three years with them! The 1-year guaranteed waterproof is just starting to wear off. I have used them for probably about 120+ rounds of golf. The course is about 3.7 miles (6500 yds from the blues, 7000 from the tips) plus distance inbetween holes and zig-zagging down the fairway to find golf balls, i probably walk at least 5 miles per round. 120 rounds X 5 miles/round = 600 miles. Footjoys are great. Some are cheap, but all are extremely well made. Hagens i use for golf-great shoes, but i would still recommend FJ.
