Customer Reviews FootJoy Pro/SL Golf Shoes - Previous Season Style

I have used FJ shoes for 50+ years and never had any problems. These are the worst fitting pair that I have ever had. I'm always a 12 medium but in these shoes my toes feel squished and I'm not impressed with the Boa lacing system as I find it very difficult to tighten.

Had really high expectations for these shoes. Was highly recommended. Found the heel support wasn't sufficient and shoes were narrow compared to other brands. Can only wear them when riding cart.

Tried then on. Very stiff. Tight fit. Small to size. Usually LOVE Foot Joy right out of the box but these were not comfortable. Returned them unused.

Hi, I have been using footjoy products (gloves, etc) and have purchased multiple pair of golf shoes during the last 35 years, and this time I am very disappointed with these golf shoes. I really thought that there we're going be very comfortable based on my previous experience and what has been advertised! Now that I have worn them once....I have no choice but to buy something else! I feel bad about writing this review, however I am trying to be honest!

I tried them on and had to tighten them twice but they didn't seem too comfortable or tight enough so I sent them back. Too difficult to twist and loosen . Just not ideal for me.

Was told a wide fitting not available by American Golf at Kettering. Sorry guys a wide is available not just a medium

The insole goes up on the inside of the shoe (I had a wide fit). It therefore makes it narrower. I've bought other FJ which were amazing: but this wide fit is...too tight due to insole (feels it was made for a size above!). And the laces are...too short. So you get a fit too narrow that makes you loosen/widen laces which are...too short (and cheap synthetic). Amateur hour. Are are lowering their COGS but not RSP?

Shoes are too narrow in toe area. I have a narrow foot and bought medium width and are still too tight around my toes. First time wearing them was very painful after a few holes. Thought they just needed to break in but after 3 rounds still hurt. The toenail on my little toes turned black. Not sure if they will take them back because they are used. Other than that it's a great shoe.

Worn once quite tight across toes becoming painful after 18 holes. I have two other pairs of Footjoys different styles which are excellent but can't recommend these.

Footjoy was a pain to deal with under their "comfort guarantee" program. Took forever to get resolved. Then they didn't want to give a credit for the difference in price. They insisted to provide gloves to make up the difference. FINALLY when the replacement shoes showed up, they never sent the gloves for the price difference. 5 unanswered emails and 3 phone calls and I still was never taken care of. Was a Footjoy customer for 30+ years. Moving on now.

Pro SL is great shoe. The gray pair I just received shipped with laces too short. Now, where can you find proper sized gray laces?

Not as comfortable as previous Pro SL. Styling also not as attractive

Previous Pro SL more comfortable and better looking

After three rounds I had to return these shoes ---first time in all the FJ shoes I've purchased. The outer part of my foot became inflamed --same spot each time. Might just be my foot/shoe combo, but can't concentrate on my game when I'm worried about my shoe.

Very comfortable better on my knees only thing I thought they were going to be black but they are navy so I will be looking for a black pair Overall great product

Fit was really narrow in the toe box. Not the comfort I was hoping for. Venting was also a challenge. I played two rounds and got 3-4 huge blisters on each foot. Been playing foot joy shoes for the last 20 years and hoping to swap out for a different model.

Skinnet p insidan och smdubbarna slets ovanligt snabbt. Efter 5 rundor var ovansidan som ny men resten trist slitna. Gr bara p grs och grus. Har bara flertalet Footjoy DryJoys Tour sedan mnga r s dessa var en stor besvikelse.

Nicely made shoes but why do they make the toe box so pointy and narrow, this is not how the foot is shaped I don't understand. Needless to say, too cramped in the toes, had to return. Very good service and easy return.

Diappointing quality for the price

I own 5 pairs of FootJoy golf shoes. It's the only brand I buy, and I buy because of the fit. Which is why I was disappointed with these shoes. I have a very wide foot, so I ordered extra wide width. Unfortunately, these shoes were too narrow to wear comfortably. I returned them. But I will try again. Hopefully, the next pair will fit as I expect FootJoy shoes to fit.

Have always had FJ shoes but the SL Pro has caused me real problems with severe arch pain. Definitely the shoes as when I return to my old Ecco shoes, the problem subsides. FJ did supply a set of DNA insoles but no real difference. Expensive mistake unfortunately.

I have played 36 holes with the new shoes. I have gone back to my old shoes as I am 81 and have some mild arthritis in My fingers. I am unable to tighten the shoes as much as I would like. I doubt if I will again wear those shoes.

Comparing this new model with my 2 year old ProSL's I would say Footjoy should have listened to the players featured on their commercial and "not change a thing". The things I loved about the older design was its lateral stability and traction. The new design is a big step back on stability and the traction does not appear to be as good as my older SL's. The good news is the new SL's can be worn right out of the box and do not require the break-in that the older shoes required. My playing companions still call them "nurse shoes" but beauty is in the eye.... Footjoy please put better shoe laces e.g. paracord in your shoes (like many competing brands do) as the flimsy laces you provide wear out real quick, but I guess that is good for replacement lace sales.

This new model SL is very structured as in stiff as a board. Buy last years model idf you can. More supple and raedy to go out of the box.

I wanted to wait a few rounds, before I answered the request for a review. Reason being, at first I felt the shoes seemed quite cheap. Being a twenty year FootJoy guy, they were different than I was used too. Today I played my first round in the rain. My feet were absolutely soaked at the end of the round. I don't recommend this shoe. Lacking support and a zero in waterproofing. Very disappointing purchase.
