Golf Monthly Verdict

This is one of the most versatile golf shoes on the market, as the sneaker-style design means that it's suitable to wear anywhere. It looks good and the soft leather excels in comfort. The sole performs equally well with impressive grip even in damp conditions and an added bonus - these shoes are waterproof.

Ecco’s Street 720 shoe is based on a design from the brand’s lifestyle collection, and it shows. With a fresh, urban vibe, it fits easily into both your golf wardrobe and everyday life, especially in the all-white version I tested. From the moment I put them on, they felt like proper sneakers, not just golf shoes trying to pass as casual. But how did they perform? Could this be one of the best women’s golf shoes out there?

Made from smooth, perforated leather, I like its clean, no-fuss appearance and the overall solid, well-built premium feel, which is similar to Ecco’s Biom H5, adidas’s Adizero and G/FORE’s MG4+ O2 G/Lock golf shoe.

Comfort-wise, I could wear these all day, and I did! The cushioning is soft yet supportive, and I especially like the padded fabric on the tongue and around the heel, exactly where you need it most. The removable insole is a bonus too, offering a bit of extra flexibility if you’ve got slightly wider feet. This is definitely one of the most comfortable golf shoes for women, I have tested this season, along with FootJoy’s Quantum and Under Armour's Phantom Fore.

On the course, they feel stable and grippy thanks to the E-DTS TWIST outsole, which gives you multi-directional traction without being bulky or spiked. Even on damp mornings, I’ve had no slipping. And the GORE-TEX surround tech genuinely works, my feet have stayed dry and comfortable. There are small ventilation holes on either side side of the midsole that not only add airflow for extra comfort but also bring a nice bit of design detail.

In summary, these are stylish, breathable, waterproof, and comfortable enough for everyday wear. Whether you’re heading to the golf course or just out and about, they are likely to earn a permanent spot throughout the summer months.
