The ifrothgolf review
PAYNTR's flagship spiked shoe, co-created with Jason Day, blending a classic leather silhouette with a carbon fibre plate and modern foam.
What's great
This is the rare hype product that delivers. Golf Monthly's review praised how the foot locks comfortably in place and singled out the carbon propulsion plate as the real star, and Today's Golfer and Plugged In Golf were similarly glowing, with talk of tremendous traction and extreme comfort. The energy return through the swing is something you notice on the very first range session. The styling is a massive step up from PAYNTR's earlier, slightly odd-looking efforts, and it now passes as a proper classic dress shoe. Waterproofing is the real deal for UK winters.
Worth knowing
At £199.99 it costs more than the FootJoy and adidas flagships. Stock is a genuine problem, with full size runs selling out on the UK site. It's a spiked shoe, so no nipping into the clubhouse or the petrol station without a thought for your spikes. And as a young brand, long-term durability data simply doesn't exist yet.
The verdict
The most exciting golf shoe of the past year, full stop. If your size is in stock, move quickly.
