I received the Nike Air Max Plus G golf shoes a few days before I was due to play a series of rounds in quick succession - and I fell in love the moment I opened the box. The pristine white, iconic design of the Nike Air Max Plus G transported me on a nostalgic journey back in time, visiting all of the great pairs of Nike Air Max Plus trainers I wore growing up. While many of the best Nike shoes have taken direct inspiration from the off-course counterpart, these were the ones I was waiting for.
With several rounds planned for the days after I first slipped them on, I was excited to truly put them to the test... and they did not disappoint, quickly becoming what we think is one of the best golf shoes to have launched this year.
The iconic Nike Air Max Plus design and TN logo immediately sends me on a nostalgic journey through my childhood
This shoe is more than just a fashion piece, standing up to the test of tricky terrains and plenty of mileage due to the inevitable zigzagging of my below-average golf game.
Aesthetically, they are perfect, down to the finest detail, like the recognisable TN logo on the heel and sole - but the comfort levels they provide are also elite. The stability they provide is at the high levels you would expect from a premium golf shoe, giving me the confidence to really get after each shot and eek out that extra distance.
This spikeless shoe is so versatile, looking just as good off the course as it does on it
Typically, after a round of golf, I can't wait to get out of my golf shoes, but as one of the best spikeless shoes, the Nike Air Max Plus G are versatile enough to wear both on and off the course. I was so content that I decided to sit on the patio and have a few drinks with my playing partners without feeling the need to limp back to my car and retrieve my 'comfy' shoes.
The outer material is also really easy to maintain, needing just a quick wipe with a damp cloth or a blast with the air compressor as I exit the 18th green.
The Nike Air Max Plus G golf shoes were so comfortable that I never wanted to take them off
As the weather turned considerably warmer in mid-May, I did notice a slight breathability issue, but to be honest, I think any golf shoes would have struggled to negotiate the soaring temperatures.
I am yet to try them in particularly wet or muddy conditions, mainly due to the glorious spring we are experiencing, but I am sure that, due to the robust build, they will be more than up to the task right through until winter. Overall, I would say that these are my favourite golf shoes that I have owned to date, and I would highly recommend them to anyone wanting a comfortable, eye-catching pair for the 2025 golf season.
