Customer Reviews FootJoy Pro/SLX Golf Shoes- Previous Season

For years I wore golf shoes with screw on soft spikes. I had tried spikeless shoes in the past and felt soft spikes gave me better traction. You know how it is for golfers, we will try anything to help our game, so I avoided spikeless shoes in favor of soft spikes. I usually walk the 6 miles or so on my home course and my feet often hurt after a round. I read that spikeless shoes were lighter and less rigid, so I decided to give that a try again. Researching various options I felt the Footjoy Pro/SLX was the best option for both comfort and performance. I particularly liked how I didn't have to sacrifice stability for comfort. I had coincidentally scheduled a lesson when my new shoes arrived and I debated if I should wear them to the lesson, introducing a new variable to that outcome. I decided to wear them and the lesson went well. So I then wore them two days in a row, walking 18 holes both days. I had been concerned about such extended use right out of the box but they performed beautifully. No pain and good cushioning and support and I felt well balanced and in control during my golf swing. The Pro/SLX shoes look great too and I received some complements on that as well. Overall it was a good decision and I can check off happy feet on my golf things to do list.

After 7-8 pairs of Pro-SL's over the last several years, I had the opportunity to try these ProSLX's, and absolutely love them! The tread's grip is improved over that of the Pro-SL's, as is the feeling of stability probably due to the wider sole, which I believe is the "3D X-Wing technology". Bottom line a great new shoe!

Fantastic shoe, soo comfy, great grip on the fairways, will definitely recommend to my mates

Great shoes and fit well... Very stylish and comfortable too with minimal break in time. The leather is soft and very comfortable shoes.

Very prompt delivery. Shoes are very comfortable and a good fitting, in line with standard shoe sizes. The heel guide helps your foot slip easily into the shoe. Wore them straight away without "wearing in" and experienced immediate comfort and no problems.

The stability on these shoes is simply outstanding, as is the comfort level. I would only add that these run large and narrow: I'm normally a 10 medium width on every other shoe/sneaker I own, but had to go to 9.5 wide for these shoes...they now fit perfectly!

# Sweepstakes The shoes are very comfortable and are well made

Found that the medium size runs a little tight. Great shoe! Great service. Opted for the wide width.

I was concerned about the width at first but decided to wear these new shoes to driving range. By the time I walked back to my car these shoes fit like a glove. I really like the color, gray looks great!

Good lookin' shoe Fits great #sweepstakes

Perfect comfort straight out of box. Grip is phenomenal. Buy.

As a senior golfer with a 10 handicap I really hope that these shoes lower my score...

Love the shoes but white sole gets dirty and stained

So comfy and stable definitely swing better in these due to the stability and comfort on offer, best spikeless golf shoe from footjoy! They will have to do something special to match these in the future.

This is my 3rd pair of this style of FJ's. Last 2 were the BOA system. While excellent, I walked through the heel padding on both of those exposing the BOA system plastic. In both instances, this was after walking at least 125 rounds for each - so definitely not cheaply made. Went with the laces version this time. So far excellent. Just as comfortable. While I prefer the convenience of the BOA system, I think I'll get several dozen more rounds out of these without the worry of slicing my heel.

My husband prefers a slightly wider fit. These were great.

Great fit, comfortable.

This is my second pair of Pro/SLX; other pair is the white model. Use both in rotation. Had the second pair all through the summer season and, from first wear was impressed how comfortable they were with no break in needed. The wide sole plate provides excellent stability and the sole grip has coped with all ground conditions; it can get pretty muddy and slippy in Galway (all seasons) and, so far, have had no issues with grip; grip is as good as spikes. The heel entry profile also makes putting on and taking off the shoes effortless; reckon this will prevent the normal collapse of the back of the shoe I've experienced in other shoes. Also provides a snug fit around the ankle, providing further stability. Like many shoes, a common downside is the that the tongue is not stitched in, however by threading the laces back through the tongue loop before the last lace holes, this keeps the tongue central. Waterproofing, so far, has been 100%, as you'd expect with a leather shoe; again this has been thoroughly tested in a west of Ireland 'summer' and Autumn. For shoe scare, I wash and treat the leather after every game (they are relatively expensive shoes, so I intend to make them last!). Also recommend using cedar-wood shoe trees to keep the shoe in shape and prevent the leather misshaping. All in, these are a sound choice of golf shoe and I would definitely recommend them for anyone willing to pay a bit extra than the entry level FJs.

Now I know why they are called Footjoy!

Walked a few good golf course The shoes were good right out of the box !
