Spike Season: 8 Golf Shoes That Are Crushing Summer
If you're walking rounds, chasing performance, or want something that looks good in the group chat, these are the spiked shoes that actually get it right.
Somewhere between your third sweaty round this month and that tee time you booked at 6:30 a.m. to beat the heat, you probably realized that your golf shoes matter. A lot. And this summer, I’ve been rotating through a tight group of spiked kicks that all bring something different to the tee box, but still check the same three boxes: comfort, traction, and style.
These eight pairs? They’re legit. Every one of them has earned its spot because they’re easy on the feet, tough on the turf, and clean enough to rock without overthinking your fit. Doesn’t matter if you’re walking 18 with a Sunday bag or gunning for low numbers in a money match—there’s something here that’ll fit the mood.

And the colorways? Solid. You’ve got timeless all-whites. Greys that go with anything. A couple of sneaky options with heritage color pops. Even the boldest pick on the list remains tasteful while still providing that extra bit of edge.
So if you're in the market for a new pair this season, something that blends modern tech, sharp design, and all-day comfort, this is the rotation I’d vouch for.
It’s hot out. Your shoes shouldn’t slow you down.
