Footjoy Golf Footwear

You may have come across a number of golfers who will strongly take the position that golf shoes make no contribution to performance on the golf course; but they are simply a pointless extra to make you spend more in the golf shop. If you do invest in high-quality golf footwear from a reputable brand such as Footjoy, there’s no argument that it is a serious investment worth some consideration. After all, can the average golfer get by on the course just as well in a pair of everyday trainers or athletic shoes? Or are the advantages of a pair of Footjoy Golf shoes really worth the payout?

It is time to settle this debate once and for all. Let us take a look at just three of the factors to look out for when considering footwear for the golf course.

Good Traction

Grip and stability are essential to making a good swing on the golf course. For a sport often played on moist grass (and sometimes sand on bad days!), the spike-bottomed outer sole of most designs of Footjoy golf footwear are designed to grip the golfer to the ground at the crucial moments in the game, giving you confidence when in the address position. The proof of this will no doubt be visible on your score card!

Comfort

For the golfer that still has the traditional connotations of golf shoes being massively uncomfortable and rigid, rest assured! As with all golfing apparel, golf shoes have developed largely in terms of comfort. Footjoy have taken care to manufacture their shoes from lightweight and flexible materials with softer uppers and more flexible soles, so you can say goodbye to blisters. Many of Footjoy’s ranges such as the FJ ICON range, have memory foam located in the design of the tongue and around the collar to provide a custom fit to enhance comfort.

If you are a walking golfer, comfort is a factor you will definitely want to take into consideration when choosing your golfing footwear. Your feet will certainly thank you for it.

Water Resistance

Golfers need to come to terms with the fact that they are not playing in Hawaii. England is a comparatively wet country, even in the summer months when the turf has morning dew on it. Therefore it is recommended that golfers invest in footwear which is waterproof or water resistant. This is often one of the main areas where everyday trainers are a let-down on the course. Imagine having to put up with wet, cold feet for three or four hours. Let’s face it – this can’t be good for your game, let alone your enjoyment on the course.

Footjoy understand this need which is why all their models are made from waterproof materials so you can take good care of your feet. In particular, the FJ Dryjoys range offer excellent all-weather performance, and are available in both mens and ladies designs.

After considering the above factors, the choice is clear. Some may still consider owning high-quality golfing footwear as an optional extra and may feel a pair of Dunlops will do just as good a job, but, for the sake of your game and your passion for your favourite sport, Footjoy golf shoes are the obvious choice. No wonder they are the number one golf shoe brand.
