I Tested The Best Value Golf Shoe Of 2025, And The Performance Stacks Up Against The Best

Under Armour Drive Fade Golf Shoe review.

It's tough to discern value in the golf shoe market. Some golfers are happy to spend $150 or more on one of the best golf shoes they'll wear regularly, but for some, it's tough to warrant spending over the $100 mark when they don't play that often. Nowadays, it's tough to buy a new golf shoe that you can wear all year round for under $100/£100, but I think I've found the solution for the budget-conscious golfer that still values performance, looks and comfort.

The shoe in question is the Under Armour Drive Fade. In the UK, where I test these shoes, they retail at £109 but can already be found at £99 in some places. This almost seems too cheap for a spiked golf shoe from such a well-recognised golf brand. 'What's the catch?' I thought to myself. Well, it's certainly not in the looks department. While they're not a jaw-droppingly gorgeous golf shoe - see the FootJoy Premiere Series Packard LX for this - they blend in nicely. It's a classic spiked golf shoe silhouette with some decent colourways on offer. I wouldn't go for the all-white or all-black version, as I think the red accents on the shoe I tested elevate the overall look nicely.
