Gone are the days of cumbersome golf shoes. Modern golf footwear favours a more athletic look, with spikeless models also suitable for off-course wear.

This means shoe shopping has never been more exciting for golfers. So much so, that owning two or more pairs is quite acceptable.

Of course, it’s not all about looks. You want a shoe that’s durable, comfortable, and offers the best traction – something the top golf shoes provide.

Here’s our selection of the best golf shoes in 2020. Whether you’re looking for a more traditional golf shoe, or a spikeless pair perfect for a quick nine after work, there’s a style for everyone.

FootJoy Tour X Golf Shoes, £179.99

You won’t find a more stable golf shoe out there. A TPU PowerPlate outsole houses nine Launch Pods, with cleats positioned at the edges for optimum perimeter stability.

Meanwhile, a PowerStrap across the midfoot allows you to pull the laces tighter for a more snug fit.

This means you’ll never have to worry about losing your footing, even in nasty weather conditions.

With a modern look, the FootJoy Tour X golf shoe ticks every box and is sure to be one of the brand’s most popular models.

Adidas Codechaos Summer Of Golf Shoes, £139.95

If you’re looking to add colour to your outfit, this bold addition to the Adidas range might be right up your street.

A spikeless model, it’s both light and bright and features an INSITE sockliner and Fitfoam cushioning – so it feels very much like a trainer.

It might have the words ‘Summer of Golf’ on the tongue, but it’s waterproof textile upper provides protection when the rain comes too – which, of course, it will.

Skechers Go Golf Elite V.4 Golf Shoes, £99

These low-profile design shoes with a slipper-like feel are perfect for spikeless fans in search of a something light and sporty.

It’s one thing designing a light shoe, but quite another factoring in the traction and support golfers need throughout a swing.

The low profile of these shoes helps keeps your foot low to the ground when you swing, while the spikeless outsoles provide impressive grip.

In addition, the H2GO Shield means users will benefit from a guaranteed waterproof protection.  

With five block colour options with contrasting trims, the Skechers Go Golf Elite V.4 is a likeable golf shoe. To top it all off, it comes at an attractive price, too.

Puma Ignite Pwradapt Caged Golf Shoes, £130

Puma golf shoes are certainly some of the most eye-catching on the market – with this model being a prime example.

A PWRCAGE saddle unit creates the optimum blend of comfort, style, and stability by wrapping round the sides of the shoe.

When you tighten the laces, the cage around the foot forms a comfortable fit, while Heel Lock Window cup the heel and lock the foot in place.

Try not wearing these around the house or when you pop down the shops.

The only difficulty you’ll have will be deciding on which colour option to go for – they all work.

Under Armour Spieth 4 GTX Golf Shoes, £170

Jordan Spieth and biomechanics expert JJ Rivet are two of the brains behind this serious-looking golf shoe – one that’s built to ensure golfers get the most from a powerful swing.

A TPU outsole with a carbon fibre insert, unique Rotational Resistance cleats, a dual durometer EVA footbed and a heel lock system are the key pieces of technology providing the stability.

With a Gore-Tex waterproof protection, this is shoe for all seasons.

Ecco S-Three Golf Shoes, £180

You’ll notice the supreme levels of comfort these shoes provide the moment you slip them on.

Zonal Fluidform technology creates a moulded midsole with three distinct zones of softness. This provides golfers with the perfect balance of cushioning and stability where they need it.

The Ecco S-Three is also one of the best-looking spikeless shoes on the market in 2020. Its leather detailing on the tongue and subtle pattern around the top of the ankle are notable features.

The outsole design provides more than 100 traction bars and 800 traction angles for grip in all playing conditions. So, despite the premium price, it’s a shoe that offers excellent value for money.

FootJoy Pro/SL Golf Shoes, £149.99

This popular shoe has been made even better in 2020.

The updated FootJoy Pro/SL features an Infinity outsole which is 11 per cent wider than the previous version and has 30 per cent more traction points for enhanced grip.

There’s also a Pro/SL Carbon (RRP £179.99) model featuring a carbon fibre inlay to increase stability and ground-force optimisation.

Mizuno Wave Cadence Golf Shoes, £140

With its one-piece ‘booty’ structure – where the shoe tongue is connected to the shoe lining – the spikeless Mizuno Wave Cadence offers incredible comfort.

Runners will be more familiar with the name, as it uses the same technology and cushioning that makes Mizuno shoes so popular in the running world.

Just as you’d expect from running shoes, the Wave Cadence’s sole design and durable compound used in high impact areas also helps extend its lifespan.

Duca Del Cosma Belair Golf Shoes, £159.95

Perhaps you’re looking for something entirely different? If so, look no further than Duca Del Cosma’s Belair shoes.

The Italian brand’s philosophy is to take inspiration from Italian design and combine it with attention to detail. And it certainly ticks a box in terms of style.

Performance-wise it’s right up there, too, with an Airplay VI outsole helping to create that heel-to-toe traction which is so important in the swing.

Meanwhile, a memory foam leather insole enhances its comfort and a waterproof internal bootie membrane helps keep water out.

It’s the ideal mix of style and substance.
