Long gone are the days of putting up with uncomfortable (or unfashionable) golf shoes. Now there’s a ton of great options that are stylish and make walking 18 holes (or more) easy on your feet. You just have to find the right pair for you.
Last year, while in England covering the Open Championship, I wrote about how my Payntr golf shoes made walking undulating links courses a breeze. They are ultra-light and comfortable, which is important, but so is the aesthetic — and that’s another reason to love Payntr. Its designs — and there are lots of them — are clean and understated, and there’s a ton of color options to pick from.
I tried it: These golf shoes are the most comfortable I’ve ever worn
Payntr Golf, which launched in 2020, is still new to the golf-shoe game, but it’s been evolving quickly. Now they have several models and colorways, wide-feet options, women’s shoes, slides and a recently-launched line of Trainers for those looking for a reliable gym or running shoe.
More are on the way, too. Major champ Jason Day joined the brand as an equity steakholder last month and wears Payntr’s X 006 RS on the PGA Tour right now. He’s currently working with Payntr’s experts to collaborate on a new model, dubbed the X1 Proto, which Day has already tested during the season. The X1 Proto is expected to be released this fall.
