Sketchers are increasingly growing in popularity and it’s not hard to see why. Here’s some of the best golf shoes they have to offer for 2026…
Skechers have continued to make impressive strides with their 2026 golf shoe range. The company are relatively new to the golf shoe market, but already have a strong presence on the professional tours with major winner Matt Fitzpatrick rocking them on the fairways.
Having produced running shoes and trainers before the move into golf, Skechers had developed a reputation for producing extremely comfortable footwear. In this guide, we take a look at whether they have transferred this into their golf shoes as the NCG team review the best Skechers golf shoes for 2026.
Whether you’re looking for maximum stability during your swing, all-day comfort for 36-hole days, or something that’ll look just as good in the clubhouse as it does on the tee, there’s a pair here for you. Here’s what’s available…
This is an extremely comfortable golf shoe with modern sporty styling. It offers exceptional grip and traction and would work all year round given its grip & durability.
It is fair to say that before putting them on I would have been apprehensive wearing these off the golf course. But by the end of the round, it would not have bothered me walking into the Clubhouse spike bar. Primarily as they are more comfortable than my normal shoes. Overall, a fantastic shoe and I am now a Skechers convert.
It’s hard not to be tempted by a set of shoes advertised as “Hands free slip-ins” so I wasn’t quite expecting such a classic traditional looking golf shoe when I opened the box and slipped them on – designed to maximise ease and comfort, these shoes need serious consideration when you are looking for your next pair to invest in.
I wasn’t familiar with Skechers before, but after trying the GO Golf Temp GF shoes, I was impressed by their look, feel, and lightweight design. They provided excellent comfort, fit well even for wider feet, and offered good grip and stability on the course.
Overall, these shoes are a comfortable blend of traditional golf style and modern trainers, making them a great choice for both performance and casual wear.
A brand known for the comfort of their shoes have produced a great performing golf shoe that builds on that reputation.
When swinging there was excellent support. There are many shoes now available where the technology and design have produced shoes with great comfort and performance. The Skechers GO Golf Blade Slip-ins are no exception.
I am normally a UK 12 but tried these in 11. Surprisingly they fit brilliantly and were perfect for my slightly wider foot as well. Then on to the important bit, how valid was my first impression?
By the end of the round, I have to say my mindset and impression of these shoes totally changed. You might not get a second chance to make a first impression, but you definitely get a second chance to totally change that first impression. I absolutely loved these shoes and even ended up loving the grey and red colours. I am a changed man!
These shoes definitely provide a comfortable walk on the course. The design is most likely aimed at the younger golfer but due to the comfort the slightly older golfer, who might happen to be aged 46 (myself), ends up being at ease with the design. The sole definitely provides support and the striped effect on the top of the shoe, though not to my personal liking, is something a bit different and did not detract from the shoe overall.

After 9 holes my feet felt great – all the innovations by Skechers were definitely paying off as my feet have usually warmed up by this stage and I can usually feel my golf shoes a bit tighter – no problem with these and no sign of any potential blisters from wearing new shoes.
I read that Skechers had developed the Arch fit support with podiatrist input and data from over 120,000 foot scans. I can certainly attest to the comfort underfoot from these shoes and over the full round my feet felt fresh throughout.
On top of comfort these shoes felt really stable, Sandmoor is pretty undulating at times, with sidehill and up and downhill lies – no problem for these shoes, I was testing the spiked version ( 7 spikes) and these provided good traction and firm stability no matter what incline I was stood on. There is a spikeless version and as I enquired how this worked the very helpful Skechers team told me that the spikeless shoes featured a traction plate that incorporates strategically placed, multi-directional lugs that are designed to grip the turf without feeling bulky or cleat-like.
Pros:
Great looks if you like the traditional golf shoe style
“Slip-in” design works, even for people like me with wide feet!
Lots of features to maximise comfort and support your feet
100% waterproof
Cons:
Make sure you choose soft spikes or spikeless (SL version) if you have a preference
Not so keen on the ‘Skechers slipins’ printed on the heel

I’ve always found golf shoes are generally chosen by brand over comfort and traction. A great golf shoe should give you stability but leave a spring in your step walking up the 18thfairway. The Sketchers GO Golf Temp GF didn’t disappoint in this area.
From the moment I put the shoes on they were unbelievably comfortable and I had no issues regarding tightness or rubbing. I am a size 10 with slightly wider feet and these were a true fit that moulded to my feet instantly.
As I walked up the final hole it was like I had been wearing my favourite trainers for the walk. The Skechers have a great feel about them and are some of the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn.
The GO Golf Tempo GF is a great shoe. I would say it is a hybrid between a traditional golf shoe style and the more modern, trainer styles that are around. If all you care about is comfort and performance then you can’t go wrong with these. They are at an attractive price point and don’t look out of place in the spike bar post round.
Pros:
Comfort straight out of the box
Lightweight with stable grip
Great range of colours available
Cons:
Conservative looks

On the course they were a joy to walk in, providing a good balance of support and comfort. I really liked the soles as they had superb traction. Some spikeless designs can look like they may be left wanting in really wet conditions but not so with these and I suspect they will perform as well as any spiked sole. This makes them a potential all-year shoe.
When swinging there was excellent support. There are many shoes now available where the technology and design have produced shoes with great comfort and performance. The Skechers GO Golf Blade Slip-ins are no exception. Due to the DNA of Skechers, I had some concerns that these shoes may have prioritised comfort over performance. These concerns proved unfounded and I was mightily impressed with these shoes. If you are in the market for a new pair of golf shoes definitely check these out. I do not think you will be disappointed.

Pros:

It’s tough to find a great pair of women’s golf shoes that look good, are waterproof, and offer good traction and comfort. I have tried many different shoes in my years of playing, and to date, my recent go to brand has been Payntr, but they only offer one style of women’s golf shoe, so I was delighted to find a good alternative.
They are wider than most women’s golf shoes I have worn but I actually felt like that was a benefit because it was balanced with their amazingly comfortable insole, which meant I had room for my feet to breathe and move around a little, without any risk of blisters. I have to admit, most of the time I felt like I was walking on air.
They definitely live up to their ‘waterproof’ claim, which is pretty easy to test when you live in the UK (Skechers even give you a 1 year warranty to cover that). I have worn these on 2 wet rounds, and 2 dry rounds and felt comfortable and dry on both. The spikes have just the right amount of grip to be classed as an All Weather shoe, clinging to the course in wet weather, with absolutely no slipping, yet not feeling too cumbersome on dry terrain.

Pros:
Will go with any outfit, given the nice clean design and gold accents.
Super comfortable from the first time you wear them (no need to ‘wear them in’ at home).
All weather capability as they feel light, yet are fully waterproof and have spikes
Cons:
Slightly larger than expected so size down half a size

Testing was carried out over two rounds in dry conditions on my home heathland course. The shoes were comfortable to wear straight out of the box, with good support around the ankle in particular. I wasn’t sure about the ‘Hands-free Slip-in’ technology but it worked a dream – my feet just slid in to position. I did have to bend over to do up the laces however, so I’m not sure that it’s such an advantage!
And I have to say that the famed Skechers comfort did not disappoint. The shoes were immediately comfortable due to the excellent lightweight padding offered by the whole of the shoe. The Heel Pillow, in particular, ensured that my foot was securely contained in position. I’m confident that I could play 36 holes in these shoes without a second thought – they are that comfortable.
Pros:
Very comfortable.
Waterproof.
Slip-in feature works well.
Cons:
Looks won’t be for all

Each best golf shoe is worn out on the golf course whilst playing golf, so we can get an idea of overall performance in terms of factors like comfort, grip, stability in the golf swing, waterproof protection and how they actually look on the golf course.
What is important when buying Golf shoes?
When buying new golf footwear its important to know what attributes or features you value the most before deciding on a brand or model to buy. For example, do you want spiked or spikeless shoes?
A lot of golfers think comfort is paramount when choosing a shoe, we are going to be standing in them for 3-5 hours right? Some golf shoes on the market have special insoles and cushioned mid-soles designed to keep your feet feeling fresh. Also it’s pretty common for golfers with wide feet to wear the wrong sized pair of golf shoes so its worth getting fit properly.
Grip is vital to good performance on the golf course as any foot slip in dry or wet conditions can not only cause the golf club to swing improperly but may also lead to an injury. Golfers need traction and stability.
Nearly all golf shoes will either be fully waterproof or offer some kind of water resistance, and this is important as real die-hard golfers play in every weather condition. Having wet feet for 4 hours is not and will never be fun so keeping the feet dry is important, this might even mean you need gore tex in the shoe.
How good the shoe looks is of course subjective to personal style, but is important to any player. Do you prefer an athletic-looking shoe, or are you more full grain leather traditional? Does your shoe offer on-course off-course style or do you want shoes purely for the course? Does the style of shoe you like have the best colour options for your golfing wardrobe?
Price is the last factor to consider. With the models above we have tried to find shoes at all different price points so if you want a shoe at a lower cost, you can get one. Or if you want to spend more, you can do that too. Importantly there is something for everyone.
What brands produce the best golf shoes?
All of the products that will end up featuring in the best golf shoes 2026 article are picked from the brands that offer what we believe to be the best shoes on the market.
Do any pros wear spikeless golf shoes on tour?
As you will see on TV when watching the PGA, LPGA & DP World Tour, professionals wear both spiked and spikeless golf shoes, depending on their preference.
Some tour players are looking for extra stability and grip for maximum power creation that a spiked golf shoe might offer, and others are looking for the comfort and style that spikeless golf shoes offer. Some tour players prefer a running shoe style, and others a traditional classic leather shoe; there really isn’t a hard or fast rule as to what tour players wear.
A bit of a late bloomer to the game of golf, Max fell in love with the sport when he attended Saturday coaching sessions down at his local golf club after being inspired by friends and family members.
Max has remained a member of Eden Golf Club in Carlisle for a number of years now as he looks to get his handicap down into single figures. Most of his golfing career has been spent battling a permanent slice off the tee, which has led to some ugly rounds.
Having studied at the University of Sunderland, Max is starting out his dream career in sports journalism. During his time at university, he picked up valuable work experience at Reach PLC, BBC Radio Cumbria and GiveMeSport, whilst also getting work published in the Teesside Live. He also spent time working at a local weekly newspaper, Eskdale and Liddesdale Advertiser, as a general news reporter partially covering some local sport just north of the border in Langholm.
Max has just started his journey with the NCG working as the assistant equipment editor. He looks forwarded to reviewing the latest golf equipment, taking up an interest in reviews when buying his first golf club, a Cleveland RTX wedge.
With his bag not going under too many changes throughout the last few years, Max carries an M3 driver, Titleist GT3 Fairway Wood, M2 hybrid, a set of M2 irons, Callaway Jaws wedges and a TaylorMade Spider putter. And yes, Max is a bit of a self-proclaimed TaylorMade fan boy.
I have to say I loved these shoes more than I expected to! I play with a lot of women that wear Skechers and adore them, but for some reason I have always associated Skechers with older people and as a brand that I will ‘grow into’ when I retire. However, these totally changed my mentality on that. They’re cute, comfortable, and have great functionality – there really wasn’t anything not to like! These shoes mean even more to me as my daughter is called Jasmine, so they are now a key addition to my golfing wardrobe and I am off to buy a pair in black!
I was impressed with the comfort and performance of the Go Golf Elite 6. I can’t tell you anything about wet-weather performance because it hasn’t rained in ages but Skechers offer a 12 month waterproof guarantee.
This is a comfortable golf shoe that is well constructed and comes in at a reasonable price point.
