Ecco Biom H5 Women's Golf Shoe Review
Emma Booth puts Ecco's new Biom H5 women's golf shoe to the test to see how they perform.

This is a busy shoe! Not only looks wise but in terms of features this shoe is packing to enhance performance. I wasn’t initially sold on the look and style of the shoe, but all those concerns disappeared once I put them on. Ecco’s Terra Traction System sole, while spikeless still provides great stability and grip. This shoe is for anyone that wants to invest in the comfort of their feet while walking up to five miles around the course.

I’m a fan of Ecco golf shoes as I have slightly flat feet and have had a few other foot issues over the years. The Danish brand prides itself on quality and a leader in crafting shoes that prioritize comfort and foot health. They have steadily gained popularity in golf since Fred couples turned heads debuting a pair of their spikeless golf shoes at the 2010 Masters.
Let’s get to their latest offering the Biom H5, first impressions, I’m not a fan of the beige, well not this shade of it as it looks flesh colored, thankfully there are two other color options available, in a white with a green sole (my favorite) and white with a purple sole. Ecco claim to have been inspired by the wild and rugged nature of the Scottish Highlands, which explains the rugged design around the shoe. I’m unsure about it myself, I know this is the modern trend now for a lot of running shoes, but I’m not fully sold on the look.
The next thing that stands out on this shoe is the seamless knit sock that replaces where traditionally there would be a tongue and while there are laces you do not need to tie them. The sock gives the impression these could be slip ins, but they aren’t, you will still need a hand to put them on.
As an Ecco fan I know what to expect when it comes to the feel of wearing them, but these shoes exceeded my expectations, it feels like a glove for your foot, which is likely thanks to Ecco’s BIOM natural technology, that promotes a snug fit. The arch support felt amazing, and my foot felt very secure and stable. They were so comfortable I almost forgot it looked like a boot made of human flesh. To play in they were a dream and required no breaking in, like I have experienced with other Ecco shoes. The Ecco Terra Traction System outsole provided fantastic grip. I would happily wear these all year round, knowing my foot would stay comfortable and dry.
