They’ve not been in the industry for all that long, but already G/FORE has made its mark on making some of the best golf shoes in the industry. Some of its styles are brasher than others, however.

One of my biggest frustrations with golf shoes is unnecessary writing. The only thing taking away from the styling is the unnecessary script on the outside rear flank of each shoe. It takes away ever so slightly from what is otherwise a very classy design.
