2. Adidas ADICROSS IV Golf Shoe Review
Cushioning and comfort is guaranteed all day long by the cloudfoam sockliner and also by to the extra EVA cushioning that lays underneath the sockliner and the classic adicross street last. Everything contributes to the ultra light feel and amazing comfort, especially the puremotion midsole, that imitates the natural motion of the bare foot, I.e. fast reaction time, stability and efficiency. The outsole is built to last and incorporates ADIWEAR tech for high wear resistance. As you can see, despite their relatively modest price tag, the Adidas ADICROSS IV are packed with high tech features, making for an excellent “all rounder” golf shoe, being available in three colorways to choose from.

3. Ashworth Leucadia Tour Golf Shoe Review
For enhanced levels of comfort and cushioning during your swings, these golf shoes feature an EVA heel insert and a KHP foam insole, which work together with incredible results; you’ll have to try it for yourself to see what I’m talking about. Retailing for $170/pair, the Leucadia Tour feature a design aimed at “old school” golf players, meaning that they have a classic, timeless look which is very popular nowadays in the golf community. What’s very striking at a first glance is the stitched saddle, in good Ashworth tradition, which boasts the company’s perfect attention to details and impeccable craftsmanship. Another nice touch from Ashworth is the extra set of laces these shoes are delivered with and also the leather welt built, with premium details (the stitching).

4. Oakley Cipher 4 Golf Shoe Review
They feel like they’re not there, providing you with proper ventilation, outstanding comfort and zero fatigue during your game. And on top of that, they look amazing. Oakley managed to keep the weight down using their latest technology, namely the Nanospike system on this spikeless design golf shoe. As far as grip/traction goes, these babies will perform admirably, being almost as good as traditional spiked/cleated golf shoes. The exceptional amount of grip is due to the outsole design which features heavy textured sandpaper patches (the Nanospike thing). Also, the Nanospikes are user replaceable; a replacement kit retails for about $20, so you don’t have to worry about wear and tear. Bottom line, it will be hard to get a better pair of golf shoes at this price, but be warned: I recommend these only for fair weather golfers or indoors use.

5. Adidas Tour 360 x Golf Shoe Review
The Adidas Tour 360 X comes from the use of ThinTech technology, which offers an increased balance/stability and an efficient power transfer due to a lower center of gravity. There’s also worth mentioning the external heel counter working in tandem with the TPU saddle providing the shoe 360 WRAP stability. The CenTraXtion thingy is basically a design aimed at increasing stability thanks to an X pattern on the outsole. The re-designed TPU makes the 360x golf shoe lighter and also more flexible and stable during the swing. The midsole was improved by adding EVA foam, for additional cushioning and increased comfort. Traction, grip and stability were greatly improved in the adidas tour 360X golf shoe with the introduction of the low profile Stealth cleat design, which provides a larger surface area contact. What makes these golf shoes worth buying is their all terrain versatility, courtesy of the strategically placed zonal traction elements. You’ll also enjoy their unparalleled comfort and grip, the excellent forefoot flexibility, which makes them adaptable on every imaginable surface, at any angle.

10. Oakley Carbon Pro 2 Golf Shoe Review
To start with, the most impressive feature of the Carbon Pro 2 (the sequel) is their feather-light weight, or maybe I should use the words “lack of weight”. They feel like they’re not there to be honest, which is awesome! Another strong selling point for the Carbon Pro 2 is the PINS cleat system, featuring Oakley’s Performance Insert System. The outsole is simply amazing in terms of grip and traction, without sacrificing comfort in the process, which is rather unusual for spiked golf shoes. The Octostick technology works in tandem with the Red Code Plus, providing you with amazing shock absorption and cushioning, whilst the feedback/tactile feel remains unaltered during your swings. The fit offered by these golf @Zshoes is perfect thanks to the Ortholite Footbed feature, so your feet will not suffer from slippage during your game while the breathability and flexibility remain top-notch in any kind of weather.
