Best Golf Shoes - Are you Spinning when you're Swinging?
You might need some real golf shoes with spikes.
Golf shoes have evolved over the decades, but have constantly kept pace with the modern fashions of the
day.
Until the 1950’s, the best golf shoes were similar in make and design, with differences only noticeable by shoe
manufacturers.
However, today golfers have many different styles to choose from with various price ranges to suit their
budgets. Golf sandals in hot weather have also become popular.
Although many knock-off manufacturers have jumped into the lucrative business of mens leather golf shoes in the
past few years, some of the more reputable shoemakers are footjoy athletic golf shoes, puma concorde golf shoes,
marc ecko golf shoes, walter genuin ladies golf shoes, asics golf shoes and Etonic golf shoes.
Saddle shoe: golf shoe with spikes
In the past, most best golf shoes were some sort of leather wingtip or saddle shoe, with steel spikes on the
soles to help the golfer with traction. The classic shoe styles are still available, and actually preferable
when golfing at a country club or formal event, but there are also casual shoes, tennis shoes, and even sandals
available to the golfer. Also, rubber or plastic soft spikes have essentially replaced the steel
spikes. The change came about to save on damage to the greens by players dragging their feet across the
grass.Ladies golf shoes are now more streamlined with walter genuin ladies golf shoes being very popular. A
firm, polished leather, stitched shoe with rubber spikes. 
High end ladies golf shoes
|
High end ladies golf shoes and mens leather golf shoes can cost the most discriminating golfer up to
$400. These shoes will usually be made of the highest quality water resistant leather. The inside of the shoe
will contain a waterproof lining that stretches to conform to the golfer’s foot, and will likely offer a fine arch
support. The soles of the shoes will be made of one of the more durable types of rubber to protect against
some of the normal wear seen through seasons of golf play.
Tennis shoes or golf sandals
Many weekend players that take a more casual approach to the game have opted for comfort and affordability with
a tennis-styled golf shoe. These shoes are normally produced with a water resistant leather or synthetic
material on the outside and a waterproof liner on the inside. Arch supports can be great in a more expensive
pair of casual shoes, but most come with just a small rise that you find in the common tennis shoe. Prices on
casual golf shoes range from $20 up to $100. 
Finally, the golf sandal has becoming increasingly popular in the last few years. Of course, these are the
most casual of any golf shoes, but they can be surprisingly comfortable and durable. The sandal is, more
often than not, a modification of the many outdoor hiking sandals seen on the market, just with soft spikes added
to the soles. The cost of a pair of golf sandals will normally run between $30 and $70.
The best golf shoes are always the most comfortable golf shoes - you may have a long way to walk.
