Top of most people’s shopping list when investing in a new pair of golf shoes is comfort. Skechers is a brand that has quickly become renowned for out-of-the-box comfort that lasts, and its 2024 Go Golf range is proof of that. However, we still wanted to put that reputation to the test. In order to see for ourselves, we invited three Golf Monthly readers down to the London Club to play and walk two rounds on the 6,771-yard Heritage course.
Rupert Chitty (9 handicap), Ian Miller (12 handicap) and Sue Clowes (17 handicap) were each tasked with scoring as many Stableford points as they could across the 36 holes, all while testing two brand-new pairs of Skechers Go Golf shoes. All three were wearing Skechers golf shoes for the very first time, so it was going to be interesting to hear their first impressions after walking a tough course twice in a day.
