G/FORE Women's G/18 Golf Shoe Review
We put the G/18 golf shoes from G/FORE to the test to see if the unique look is backed up by high-level performance.

A unique, fashion-forward shoe that looks great especially in the pink finish pictured here, the G/18 has comfort at its heart, along with a waterproof finish. The look of course may divide opinion, as will the massaging insoles, but many will love those design elements.

Why you can trust Golf Monthly

If bold, fashion forward footwear is you, these are right up your street. G/FORE is not for wallflowers and these will definitely get some comments! They are almost Balenciaga in style.
In the above video, Alison Root provides an overview of some of the best shoes for 2025
The G/18 golf shoes are comfortable in the right size, I find this brand comes up small, so I’d size it up slightly. This may be unpopular, but I’m not a huge fan of the massaging insole so taking that out also gives you a bit more room. It is removable and washable for those that love it, I find it just puts pressure on my feet over 18-holes in a way that's not terribly enjoyable or relaxing to me. However I know many members of the Golf Monthly team love these insoles so try these on first to see if you like the feel.
I love waterproof golf shoes, especially for wetter days or dewy mornings because nothing worse than going in the rough and having a wet foot for a round. And these are indeed waterproof so can deliver nice protection here.
The Gravitee Traction System on the soles are great for people who like to use a lot of power in their swing and want to stay steady on their feet. It is worth saying that the traction here was solid given the spikeless design but for those wet and winter rounds, I would still recommend spiked golf shoes instead.
I play quite a bit of golf and the feet get tired and all support is welcome! The Crash Pad Heel helps especially on more hilly courses and this shoe also has a Heel-to-Toe Rocker Design which mimics a walking pattern. With these little design features, G/FORE has built a shoe that thinks of all the little things that add up to a very comfortable wear. Additionally these shoes are wide soled which always makes you feel like you’re walking on clouds.
The colourway of blush is perfect for me, but for the boldest the knockout pink is a show stopper. G/FORE always includes a choice of laces which I love. I can be a bit of a plain Jane for footwear when it comes down to it, mainly because I like something that goes with everything, but an exception can be made when fashion meets function.
