Buying golf shoes

Have asked golfers in HCMC about adidas and most of them say that it only last about 6 months dude to the sale always coming off.

So it looks like its either buy Footjoys here or wait till I get back to S'pore and do some shopping...

Hi guys. Newbie here buying golf shoes. Do you guys think it's better to get those spiked or spikeless ones? Really have no clue about this. Will any club reject you if you are wearing spikeless shoes?

Thanks.

I prefer with spike because I need more traction ...

Either way it's fine as long as the spikeless shoes were designed for golf.

Advantage of spiked is better stability and grip, and longevity of shoes cos of replaceable spikes.

Spikeless on the other hand, is more comfortable, and you can take them straight from the house to the course and back again. But usually don't grip as well in wet conditions, off slopes and in the rough. And once the rubber nubbins wear out, they've only got a little longer life as sneakers.

Your choice really...

Thanks for the advice guys. Will check it out at GD later. Hope got some good stuff in my size. =)

Actually no matter which type of shoes you choose, it seldom less more than 3 years...in fact most shoes, assuming if you play every wk, last only 2.

@enwee Ahhh that's good. I play a few other sports and the typical lifespan of my footwear is about 1-1.5 years.

There are3 outlets, sin ming lane, midview city, commonwealth lane, one commonwealth & kaki bukit, EnterpriseOne. Hope its helps.

Hi,

May I know which outlet is the biggest with more item on sales or all 3 are the same ? And also if the sales period is over will i still get the same sales price for certain item, example shoes or shirt.

No worries, sales at GD is basically perpetual ...   

Actually I wanted to buy a pair of shoe and some golf wear and not clubs, may i know do they carry lots of golf apparel or waste of time for that ?

Saw they advertise the sales for Puma shirt 2 for $69, so tempting. 

The last sales i got from isetan was 1 for $69.

The best deal is in Adidas private sales recently lah. Puma outlet sales also not too bad 70% off.

You mean Puma Outlet at Changi City?

yes, recently they clear all golf apparels at 70% disc. The bermudas only $28.70 after discount.

Dun bother going down unless you are size 36 for the bottoms. 
Golf shoes wise, not much too save for a few ladies one

Alamak, left all those XS and XL size only? How about shirt?
