Under Armour has already released what I believe will be the two best golf shoes of 2026. The Drive Pro Clone and the Drive Pro Clone SL blew me away with the mixture of comfort, performance and looks. I haven't tested everything due to be launched in 2026 yet, mind you, but so far they're top of the pile. So, with this in mind, why has Under Armour also released this new Halo Tour SL, and who is it for? I went out onto the golf course and to the driving range to try to answer both questions.
Let's start with the what, before the why. The Halo Tour is a spikeless shoe based on the brand's flagship Halo running shoe, which many of you reading may have used before. We've seen brands like Adidas and Nike dip into their archives before to inspire golf shoes, but I can't recall a running trainer so closely followed for a golf-specific shoe, though I'm happy to be corrected here. Though more casual in its look, performance, grip, stability and comfort have not been sacrificed, and this is still a purposely designed golf shoe, just with its visual identity rooted in running.
