As a sufferer of Plantar Fasciitis I often struggle to find golf shoes that give me enough arch support. The Skechers Pure Si golf shoes were an absolute delight to wear. As far as straight out of box comfort goes you simply can’t beat them.
As soon as I slipped my feet inside I instantly knew that these shoes would cause me no pain. They have a generous fit, ideal for my wide feet, and padding just about everywhere that comes into contact with the foot. There is particularly good heel support also (Skechers call it a heel pillow) so no discomfort there.
One of the most impressive features of these shoes is the Arch Fit inner soles. They really do support golfers with problem feet like me. A high arch needs extra support and these shoes give exactly that.
They are also fully waterproof so you don’t have to worry about getting caught out in a heavy downpour, which means you’ll get great value and wear from these shoes all-year round if you wish.

In terms of styling, the Pure Si aren’t the most exciting golf shoes I have ever seen. In fact, I’d describe them as relatively plain in looks, perhaps a little boring compared to other shoes such as the New Balance 327 or Duca del Cosma Olivera 2 golf shoe. It seems to be a theme across all nine golf shoe styles from Skechers this season. But on the plus-side the neutral look does compliment just about any outfit.
On the course I was really impressed with the grip I got from the high traction spikeless sole. The raised rectangular patterned spikes really do help the shoe cling to the turf as you swing. The Pure Si definitely gave me confidence to swing athletically without any discomfort.

Skechers point to the addition of an S-Wing for stability. This actually looks a bit plasticky to me, but it’s good to know the side panel was added like the wings of a plane for a purpose, rather than just for cosmetics!
Skechers has always been a golf shoe brand synonymous with comfort, and the addition of a few fancy performance features in the Pure Si really do make them an unbeatable choice as one of the best women’s spikeless golf shoes.
