Why Changing Your Golf Shoe is Important
There are two main types of golf shoes to choose from, spiked ladies golf shoes and spikeless ladies golf shoes. Both of these have their advantages and disadvantages, which is why changing your golf shoe depending on the weather and season is recommended. By doing so, you can ensure that you are always wearing the ideal type of footwear on the course. If you're not sure what is the ideal type of footwear for your needs, fret not, we have you covered. Check out our essential guide to ladies golf shoes.
Regardless of whether you are playing in the winter or spring, wearing the right golf shoe can significantly improve your game. The importance of comfort and functionality cannot be understated.
Weight-saving
For example, spikeless golf shoes are lighter and often more comfortable to wear. Plus, you can wear them anywhere, even when you are not on the course. This is ideal during the warm and dry weather, especially if you are walking around the course. After all, comfort is paramount.
However, you are likely to find that spikeless golf shoes are not quite as effective during the winter months. This is because the golf course is likely to be wet and muddy, and therefore spiked golf shoes are needed to provide additional grip. Spiked golf shoes can help you to balance and they offer stability, traction and grip when you are on the course.
Waterproofing
If you are wearing ladies golf waterproofs in the winter - or in the spring, on wetter days - you should also think about finding a pair of shoes that offers some level of protection from the damp, wet and muddy course.
The Duca Del Cosma shoe is a key part of our ladies golf waterproofs range, as they offer more coverage than a standard golf shoe without compromising on comfort or style. The Adidas Tour360 Spikeless Ladies Golf Shoes are also a good choice as they are waterproof, lightweight and stable.
