It all depends on your feet. Basically, golf shoe or not, shoes
must be comfortable to wear and should fit good. Also, the shoes
should fit your budget as well as your lifestyle.
Out with the old
Old golf shoes have those spikes that are made out of metal.
These types of foot wear are no longer allowed on the golf
greens. Throw them out and get a new pair of great golf shoes.
Current makers of golf shoes use spikes that are soft and made
of plastic.
Brand it or not
The brand is not as important compared to fit, comfort and
style. You may have the shoes that Tiger Woods wears but that
does not mean you will play like him if you wear the brand of
shoes he wears. Be realistic. If you prefer the slip-on golf
shoes rather than the ones that you have to tie, go and get
those. It is your opinion and preference that counts more than
anything else. Listen to what your feet are telling you.
Why are they on sale?
Golf shoes are different and unique. Though you could simply
settle for any shoe that fits or any shoe that looks good
because they fit your budget, this should not be the only
consideration. Take this as an example, a golfer once bought a
pair of golf shoes simply because they were on sale. Lo and
behold when the golfer tried it on the actual greens, he found
out that it was a pain to the feet and very difficult to keep on
as well as to tie.
So please do not forget to try it out first. Your feet would
know better and then let your wallet speak after your feet have
decided on the shoes. Walk around the store with the shoes you
are intent to purchase. Make sure though that you also try on
other pairs.
Know your real golf self
However, if you do not play golf very much, it is best that you
purchase the kind of shoes that just as well do not cost as
much. But if you are a devoted golfer, shoes that are waterproof
is the best option. These shoes are good for walking as well as
sloshing along the greens. But if you are a golfer that is not
so serious in playing and you enjoy the walking over the hills,
around trees and tees more than playing or putting, then going
waterproof may not be an option for you.
