FootJoy introduced its Quantum shoe in 2024, calling it the most comfortable spikeless shoe the company has ever produced due to new golf-specific technology. The shoe has proved popular and is now available in a new colorway for the 2025 season, so I was keen to form my own opinion and find out if it is one of the most comfortable golf shoes for women.
Let’s consider the look of this shoe first. Out of all the women’s shoes in the FootJoy range, I would say that this one is the most athletic looking and I believe this is largely due to the design of the platform. It has a soft bobble effect and reminds me of the sensation you get if you squeeze bubble wrap!

The leather is very soft and I particularly like the area around the heel, as it’s noticeably stronger than the rest of the shoe to provide extra support where needed. Although the heel is quite high at the back, it’s so well cushioned that I’d be surprised if it would become a problem area for any female golfer. I cannot forget to mention the comfy Ortholite Impressions FitBed, which also features in the FootJoy’s Pro/SLX model, and over time it moulds to the natural shape of your foot, which is clever.

As for performance, because my feet were hugged by these shoes, I felt confident wearing them even before I’d hit a shot. Quantum features the same traction technologies as the Hyperflex and Pro/SLX models, so with multiple shapes and patterns on…
