With an estimated 60 million golfers in the world today, 4 million, of which, are in the UK and every one of those golfer’s owns, at least, one pair of golf shoes, it becomes easy to understand why golf shoe manufacturers invest so heavily in the latest golf shoe technology.
Wearing golf shoes is, neither, a fashion statement nor an affectation for golfers. Golf shoes form an essential part of a golfers “uniform”, simply because if you tried to play golf on a wet course in regular shoes, trainers or boots, the very first time you swung a driver you would ,either, slip and suffer a mishit or, more embarrassingly, slip and hit your posterior on the grass. Well, at least you would hit something!
So, golf shoes must offer some form of traction, whether this is by soft or metal spikes or grooves in the soles of the shoes. Metal spikes are becoming less popular because of the damage caused to the greens and many private golf clubs ban metal spiked golf shoes for this reason.
It may appear obvious, but, the fit of golf shoes is another extremely important factor. Golf shoe sizes match the sizes of regular shoes, so, do not add an extra size or half size because you wear thick socks, it doesn’t work that way. If you wear size 8 men’s regular shoes, then it is size 8 golf shoes that you will need. Try walking 5 miles or approximately 5 hours in ill-fitting shoes and your golf game will suffer as a direct result.
Golf manufacturers have devoted a significant amount of research into the comfort of golf shoes. Different golf shoes are available for differing weather conditions. Playing a round of golf early in the morning, when there is still dew on the grass or in rain would, perhaps, require a golfer to purchase golf shoes that are waterproof, whereas, for warmer, drier climes golf shoes which allow a golfer’s feet to breathe must be a consideration. The comfort does not end with the material of golf shoes because golf shoes are available with padded tongues, collars and insoles. In fact, there are so many ways for a golfer to benefit from purchasing a good quality pair of golf shoes, from shock absorbency, flexibility, comfort, durability and, of course, stability, that if it were not compulsory to wear them, a golfer would opt to wear golf shoes, anyway.
