There's also this kind of golf gear.

Since everyone has their own preferences when it comes to clothes and clubs, we won't make any suggestions here. It's not necessary, but it's useful to have them. And they're functional, so it's fun to just play around with them or actually use them. We've put together a collection of golf-related items like that.

These golf shoes are called spikeless shoes because they do not have spikes attached to them. Instead of spikes, the outsole is made of lugs with high grip and a distinctive uneven shape.
Lug patterns vary by brand, and since they look almost like sneakers, many manufacturers suggest them for everyday use.

[Extra Edition] Can you wear golf shoes around town?

Conclusion. Spikeless golf shoes can be worn on the street. If you have a question mark in your head when you hear this, please open the shoe box at the entrance. "Stan Smith" is originally a tennis shoe, and "Air Force 1" is a basketball shoe once worn by a famous NBA player. Recently, the base of many models of "Hoka" and "On", which have become more common in the city, is running.

Just as runners wear running shoes, there is nothing strange about golfers wearing golf shoes. However, you should be careful because if you keep walking on concrete, the unevenness of the outsole, the lugs that increase grip, will be worn down. This is the same for shoes that originated from trails, but everyone wears them in the city as a fashion item without caring.

But there are many benefits. You can wear them both on and off the job, so it kills two birds with one stone, and you don't have to go through the trouble of changing shoes, so you can carry less luggage when you go to the golf course. The popularity of spikeless shoes is similar to the trend towards ultralight hiking shoes. Is that an exaggeration?
