It’s My Job To Test Golf Shoes – Here’s Why These Models Are Worth Buying This Amazon Prime Big Deals Day

Ecco Biom H4 2023 Golf Shoes

I test golf shoes for a living (yes it’s a real job) and I’m very fortunate to test pretty much every major golf shoe launch there is each year. Put bluntly, if there’s anything I don’t know about golf shoes, it ain’t worth knowing. 

That’s why, every Amazon Prime Big Deals Day, I’m keenly looking to see which shoes have gone on sale to help you better understand what a good golf shoe deal actually looks like. As you might imagine, a lot of bad golf shoes will get heavily discounted at this time of year and brands try to get rid of any remaining stock before 2025. However, in and amongst some not-so-great offerings this year are four absolute gems I need to bring to your attention.

This covers more surface area than conventional spikes while still remaining incredibly low profile. I also really like the pops of color the Puma designers opted for on the outsole too, with the green and orange combo really standing out. 

If you’re after a new spiked golf shoe and the Adidas is still a little too steep for you price-wise, these are a superb alternative.

I crowned this shoe my best of 2023 after it was released in February of the same year. Though not part of Amazon’s sale event this year, I’ve spotted it at Carl’s Golfland on sale right now. 

The absolute highlight of this shoe is the Ortholite Impression Footbed, which provides supreme comfort. In fact, we believe that this technology has elevated the HyperFlex Carbon from a good golf shoe into a great golf shoe. Exclusive to the HyperFlex Carbon, this footbed has a memory foam feel to it and, over several rounds, it…
