Best FootJoy Golf Shoes
FootJoy Pro/SL Shoes

Sizes: 6-14
Colours: Four Men’s, Three Women’s (can also be customised through MyJoys platform)
+ Exceptional all-round performance
+ Continuing to lead the way when it comes to spikeless grip and stability
+ Plenty of walking comfort
– Supple leather does scuff quite easily
It is illuminating how the Pro/SL is chosen by more of the world’s top 100 golfers than any other shoe which is testament to the quality of their performance. They combine a soft and comfortable waterproof upper with a midsole/outsole unit with three layers to provide comfort, stability and spikeless traction.
They’re comfy and they look great, no question, but out on the course this is matched by the all-round performance that gives you a little more control of your movement during the swing. One of the best spikeless golf shoes money can buy.
FootJoy Tour X Shoes

Sizes: 6-14
Colours: Two Men’s
+ Tour X ticks every box but importantly combines excellent stability and grip
+ Superb soft comfort
+ Big improvements on the Tour S
– Limited colour choices
FootJoy says it garnered feedback from the world’s best players, then taken the best features from previous Tour S models and blended them with the standout features from its D.N.A. Helix and Fury models to create the cleated Tour X.
Stability comes from the TPU PowerPlate outsole, which houses nine Launch Pods that are positioned wider, with the cleats at the very edges and the PowerStrap is a nice touch because it allows you to pull your laces tighter for a more snug and comfortable fit.

Colours: Two Men’s
+ Exceptional all-round performance
+ Continuing to lead the way when it comes to spikeless grip and stability
+ Technologically advanced design
– Makes the standard model a bit redundant
– Leather does scuff a little too easily
One step further than the standard Pro/SL is the Carbon model. It is noticeably more rigid than the standard design and it has a carbon fibre inlay integrated into the midsole running along the entire length of the shoe. This is said to improve stability and torsional rigidity.
Overall the FootJoy Pro/SL Carbon represents a step up from the Pro/SL – Stylish and with excellent new technologies to enhance stability, traction and support. This is one of the most comfortable golf shoes out there.

The best FootJoy golf shoes don’t need to cost an arm and a leg. These Contour’s are a case in point as you can regularly get a pair for less than £100. Comfort is the most important thing in these shoes as well. This takes the form of an ERGO-Sole and a lightweight PU Fit-bed which combine to give maximum comfort and cushioning. We also liked the Nappaluxe ultra-soft leather which looks fantastic and gives solid waterproof protection. Three different colours are available.
