Winter Golf Shoes: What to Look For (Plus Our Top Waterproof Picks)

The best winter golf shoes for women combine a fully waterproof upper with the grip and stability you need on wet or soft ground. Below, we cover exactly what to look for in a winter golf shoe, and round up our top waterproof picks for the season.


What to Look for in a Winter Golf Shoe

Four things make the biggest difference to comfort once the weather turns:

  • Waterproofing. Look for a shoe explicitly labelled ‘waterproof’, not just water-resistant. It's the difference between dry feet and a soggy back nine!

  • Grip and traction. Wet and soft ground call for a sole built to keep you stable through the swing, not just on the fairway.

  • Room to layer. Winter rounds often mean a slightly thicker sock, so it's worth checking fit rather than assuming your usual size.

  • Warmth. A lined or insulated upper adds real comfort on the coldest mornings, without making the shoe feel bulky.

Winter Golf Shoe FAQs

Are spikeless shoes as good as spiked shoes in wet winter conditions?

Modern spikeless soles are designed with deep, multi-directional tread that performs well on wet and soft ground, for most winter rounds, a good spikeless waterproof shoe like the New Balance 327 will keep you stable without the extra weight of a spiked sole.

How do I know if a golf shoe is waterproof?

Check the product listing as we label every fully waterproof style clearly, so you're never guessing before you buy!

Can I wear thicker socks with these shoes?

Yes, but it's worth trying your usual size first. Shoes like New Balance golf shoes are true to size, and most golfers don't need to size up for a slightly thicker winter sock. If you're unsure, our team is happy to help with sizing before you order.
