We love walking the fairways in a stylish pair of golf shoes as much as anyone, but don’t let looks distract you from finding shoes that fit. We’re talking more than just the correct size. If you want to play your best, find shoes that favor your style of play. Do you overrotate during the swing? You may need a shoe with extra perimeter structure. Always walk? A flexible midsole is a must.

According to a FootJoy study, 70 percent of golfers are wearing the wrong size shoe. One of those golfers turned out to be Justin Thomas. In testing FootJoy’s Premiere Series, he noticed looseness and instability in his right heel. FootJoy examined his sizing and discovered his right foot is smaller than his left, so Thomas now plays in a size 8.5 in the right foot and a 9 in the left.

When searching for a new pair, prioritize fit and then style. The good news? You’ve got plenty of options. To help you find a new go-to pair for the season, we’ve selected the best men’s golf shoes and the best women’s golf shoes of 2023. No matter your fit or style preferences, these lists have something for you.
