Best FootJoy Winter Golf Shoes 2024
FootJoy Pro/SLX Carbon
This really is all the golf shoe you will ever need.
FootJoy has surpassed itself with a great-looking shoe that is lightweight, extremely comfortable and offers unrivalled grip and support. Packed with technological advances, it comes highly recommended.
On testing in damp conditions underfoot, I experienced a great feeling of stability with no loss of grip on sidehill lies or in fairway bunkers. I did notice that when looking down at the shoe, the outsole is clearly visible, but this appearance adds to a sense of grip and security.
I have worn this shoe on two 18-hole rounds at my home heathland (but wet) course. My feet have remained dry and comfortable throughout. Although I have not yet worn them for 36 holes in a day, I am confident that they would be fine.
This latest shoe from the FootJoy Pro SL range is an absolute winner!

FootJoy reckons that the Hyperflex Carbon offers increased stability than any shoe on the market now due to the carbon power plate. With ortholite impression fitbed and optiflex zones, the FootJoy HyperFlex Carbon shoes should be stable and rigid in the golf swing but comfortable enough to wear all day.
I’m fairly comfortable commenting on how the FootJoy HyperFlex Carbons are pretty much faultless.
I cannot believe how strong and stable I feel in the swing wearing them. I’d go so far as to say these shoes have managed to wake me up and help me escape the spikeless shoe cult and have opened the door of proper golf shoe performance.

- Excellent traction.
- Really solid in the swing and underfoot

These FootJoy golf shoes feature FJs revolutionary versatrax outsole, which offers 360 degrees of grip and stability by angling what are essentially spikeless shoe nubs in different directions, which, combined with the actual soft spikes virtually guarantee that you are going to have no issue playing any shot from any lie during your round of golf.
I cannot believe how strong and stable I feel in the swing wearing them. I’d go so far as to say these shoes have managed to wake me up and help me escape the spikeless shoe cult and have opened the door of proper golf shoe performance.
These are quite possibly the perfect golf shoes, and they are not as expensive as you might think. If you are prepared to break some shoes in before playing in them, you definitely want to pick a pair of these up.

The outsole configuration is the same as the Pro SL. The 180 rubber lugs, allied to the perimeter weighting of the proprietary outsole with 17% more surface area in the heel, all makes this a very secure shoe. The damp conditions we experienced during assessment tested the performance of the sole and there was no slipping or sense of insecurity even on awkward sloping lies.
PROS
- Premium leather upper.
- Very comfortable.
- Excellent stability.
CONS
- Limited colour options
