Why Wear a Spiked Golf Shoe?

Traction

The problem with the old metal spikes was very simply that they were destructive to greens and walking in them on concrete or tile or any hard surface was not secure and could be downright slippery.

The new era of rubber or plastic spikes changed all that. Not only do they do well on hard surfaces, but they are perfect for getting a grip on hilly fairways or wet grass and even in that nasty sand trap.

Stability During the Swing

The golf swing begins with a stable platform on account of the torque your body goes through when twisting and turning the torso. Spiked shoes give you the support to grab the surface consistently and therefore keep your stance steady. Any casual review of golf manuals will tell you that balancing your weight is critical regardless of the terrain.

Other Features

Spiked golf shoes have much more to offer your feet too.

Repel Water

Many spiked golf shoes are waterproof or water resistant. Keeping your toes nice and dry will help keep every golfer comfortable for the entire round.

Light Golf Shoes

The days of heavy, clunky spiked golf shoes are long over. Just about every brand now uses space age materials and technology to reduce weight yet remain durable for many seasons.

Durable Insoles

Some golf shoes have removable insoles to give you a near custom fit. They make your feet feel snug and secure.
