While crushing a ball down the fairway might be the greatest feeling in the sport of golf, FootJoy would beg to differ. The brand traces its roots back to the 1850s and has become synonymous with great golf shoes. Its styles draw inspiration from past classics and today's trends as well as modern technology to produce a superior product, which is why the waterproof Tour Alpha Golf Shoes going on sale is such a big deal.
Right now, the FootJoy Tour Alpha Golf Shoes are on sale for $150—a 25% discount on the original price of $200. These golf shoes have earned more than 225 five-star ratings at PGA Tour Superstore and are still available in two neutral colors with sizes ranging from 7 to 15 and the choice of medium or wide widths.

These FootJoy golf shoes have a ton of features crammed into one super-cool-looking package. They're made with a durable and high-quality English leather that's been weather-treated and is backed by a two-year waterproof warranty. Inside, a cushioned OrthoLite insole optimizes comfort over time, slowly molding to the contours of your foot. They're also stable, with designs to lock onto your heels mid-swing and low-profile spikes that deliver great traction on the course.
Shoppers have flocked to these Tour Alpha-series golf shoes from FootJoy, with many agreeing that they're firing on all cylinders with support, grip, and weather resistance. "Great shoes, the perfect balance of comfort and support, light in weight, and easy to get around in, walk the course, and ride the cart," one shopper noted. "Traction is amazing. No slippage, even in damp and wet conditions."

Some golfers even say they're great from the get-go. "This shoe was very comfortable right out of the box," one shopper noted. "Bought them for a golf trip. Played five rounds, and no break-in needed. No pinching, no heel slipping. No foot or leg pain. Most stable golf shoe I've had. Great value for your money."
And while some shoppers noted that the toe box can be slightly narrow, the wide sizes are a welcome solution. "I have worn a few brands over the years, but Footjoy got it right with the Tour Alpha," one shopper said. "I wear a wide shoe and typically size 11. I got this pair in a size 10 Wide (recommended you go one size down from what you normally wear) and the shoe fits perfectly. No break-in was needed for me. Went out and played in a two-day tournament and had no discomfort whatsoever!"
Despite the great response to the FootJoy Tour Alpha Golf Shoes, once they're gone, they're gone for good. So if you're looking for a reliable waterproof golf shoe that provides excellent traction and can support you through a powerful swing, pick a pair of these up while they're still around and take advantage of the $50 savings.
