As an avid golfer and equipment insider, I'm always keeping my finger on the pulse of the latest gear trends. When it comes to footwear, I try to keep readers up to date on what shoe models are flying off shelves. According to sales data from several top golf retailers, here are the 9 best selling golf shoes at the moment:
In the #1 spot is the Puma Ignite Pwradapt. Loved for its spikeless traction and sleek look, the Ignite continues to be a fan favorite since its release last year. Its lightweight and breathable design is perfect for warm weather rounds.
Coming in second is the adidas Tour360 XT. Known for its stability, this spiked model has been a staple in tour player's bags for years. The updated XT model features improved traction from the 360 traction pattern and a cloudfoam cushioned midsole for walking comfort.
Nike's Air Zoom Victory Tour Golf Shoe holds strong at #3. Popular with distance seekers, this shoe lives up to the Nike name with impressive energy return from its full length Zoom Air unit. A nice bonus is the smooth leather and easy-on lacing system.
In the #4 spot is Skechers Go Golf Pro 4. This best-selling Skechers model receives high praise for its affordable price tag and all-day comfort. The elastic laces and rugged traction make it a great option for casual players.
Rounding out the top 5 is the FootJoy Pro/SL. As one of FJ's classic silhouettes, it continues delivering impressive waterproof protection and quality craftsmanship. No wonder it remains a consistent top-seller.
That covers the top 5. The rest of the rankings include ECCO Biom G3 at #6, Under Armour HOVR Drive at #7, Dexterity Tour360 at #8, and New Balance Fresh Foam Lazr at #9.
