I accomplished the unthinkable this year. I officially have more golf shoes than regular shoes in my closet, which to many may sound like a dream, but in reality, my little Brooklyn apartment just might burst at the seams at any given moment.
But this abundance of footwear allowed me to conduct a really fun experiment—finding the best golf shoes of 2025.
Through countless golf trips and working on site at professional events, every pair on this list has been tested to the absolute limit. I'm talking 10 to 12 hour days, thousands of steps, and of course, golfing in all kinds of weather conditions. From the shiny shores of Florida to the Pacific breeze whisking across Bandon Dunes, my shoes racked up some mileage.
These 10 made-for-golf options checked every box. Comfort, performance, stability, durability, and most importantly style. Here are my top golf shoes of the year and the ones definitely accompanying me into 2026 golf.

Sun Day Red Osprey
These hit the streets in late summer and it changed my life. I didn't expect to love a plain white golf shoe (that looks like a sneaker) so much but the level of comfort truly took these to the next level for me. Sure these can withstand any round of golf, but I spent one day, galavanting around New York during Ryder Cup week in these kicks and that sealed the deal. From the office to the bar to Bethpage—the Ospreys are my shoe of 2025.

FootJoy Women's Links Golf Shoes
What can I say? I love a spikeless golf shoe. These look awfully similar to the Sun Day Red's but FootJoy (one of the most revered shoes brands in the game) really stepped into the fashion lane with these. The gold metallic details really bring this leather shoe to life without being too over the top.

ECCO Women's BIOM H5 Golf Shoes
I will always have a soft spot for ECCO. It was the very first brand of golf shoes I ever got as a little girl, and almost 20 years later, they're still doing their thing and only getting better. The Biom H5 shocked me. They're the most unconventional shoe on this list in terms of appearance, but there's no doubt around how comfortable they are. There are quite a few spikeless options on this list and I'd vote these to be the pair that actually had the most traction and prevented slipping.

adidas Women's MC Zoysia Spikeless Golf Shoes
A modern twist on a classic silhouette. I found myself gravitating to these shoes quite a bit, especially when I went on the ultimate golf trip to Bandon Dunes. Three days of golf and a whole lot of walking—and my feet were pain-free. The adidas BOOST technology in the spike-less sole makes these beyond wearable.

G/FORE MG4+ O2 G/Lock Women's Spiked Golf Shoes
The chunky shoe look isn't for everyone, yet somehow G/FORE manages to make it so cool. But the feature I like the most on this shoe is the little tab on the heel that helps lock in your stability. This is an athlete's golf shoe. It reminds me a lot of a football cleat and just has that performance feel.

J.Lindeberg Women's Ace Low Top Golf Sneaker
This one is for my girls who are looking for a shoe that can do double-duty. This is the ultimate golfing sneaker that has that street style, low top flair but the cheeky JL logo outsole provides for traction than your average AF1. And if I'm being honest I think I wore them with jeans more than I did with my golf attire—and I have zero regrets.

Lambda Golf Women's Anzio White & Leopard
The cheetah and leopard print trend hit me hard in 2025. From darling little purses to my golf shoes, there was no escaping the animal print. Lamdba, a premium European golf shoe brand, took the fad and elevated it to be wearable for the course. These are fully waterproof and provide more cushion for your foot that you didn't even know you needed.

Payntr Women's Golf Sport Classic LE
I need to say a special thanks to my fellow Skratch style editor Raymond Williams for putting Payntr into my orbit. I had seen the brand on social media but never pulled the trigger on getting a pair of shoes, but I'm so glad I did. Upon my first wear I immediately felt the quality and intention put into the design. For a full leather and waterproof shoe, my feet never got fatigued. They're more on the golf-y than fashionable side yet remain to be stylish and work well with any outfit I throw on.

Nike Air Jordan 1 Low G Spikeless Golf Shoes
This one is a classic. A shoe that's been firmly in the rotation for the past couple of years and I don't see that changing. The legacy and heritage Nike and the Jordan Brand have developed is unmatched, and that has translated in their made-for-golf staples.

Malbon X adidas Samba Golf Shoe
Last but certainly not least is my sweet baby samba golf shoe. My favorite sneakers of 2025 are also among my top for golf shoes and that's no accident. The samba is a timeless hit and this collab with Malbon only adds to the equation. This ivory and green colorway is sexy, and not too feminine. It's objectively the perfect shoe for everyone.

BUY NOWI don't have these shoes in my possession so it didn't feel right to include them in the top-10 lineup, but I'd be remiss to not talk about them. The one and only player exclusive shoe of the World No. 2 women's golfer hit the market last month and sold like hot cakes. They are completely sold out on Nike's website but other retailers have select sizes in stock.
What Korda and the team did was take one of the brand's most popular shoes, the Nike Free, and turn them into a canvas of the golfer's personality. It's the same performance tech, built for comfort and stability with a little extra flair.
Equipped with personalized charms and a vibrant color way—I'm all in on bespoke pieces for your golf game in 2026. The little details go a long way.

Nike Free Nelly Korda PE Golf Shoes
From Lebron James to Caitlin Clark, I think we can expect to see these kicks in heavy rotation next year.
