TRUE Linkswear has developed a strong reputation in the golf footwear market for producing comfortable, performance-driven shoes that cater to walking golfers. Their latest lineup aims to balance style, comfort, and on-course functionality. We gathered insights from our equipment panel, which tested these shoes in real playing conditions to assess how well they meet these claims.
Golfers were immediately drawn to the aesthetic of the shoes. The minimalist, modern design was a highlight, with panelists noting they have a casual, sneaker-like appearance that transitions well from the course to wear everyday. One reviewer mentioned, "TRUE separates itself from the competition in terms of looks; it’s stylish and doesn’t scream 'golf shoe.'”
TRUE Linkswear’s performance was evaluated across multiple key areas:
Weight & Walking Comfort
One of the standout qualities was how lightweight the shoes felt. Walkers appreciated the balance between cushioning and support, with a tester sharing, "They are very comfortable for walking 18 holes without fatigue." This lightweight design was particularly beneficial for golfers who prefer to walk instead of using a cart.
If you’ve ever been to a PGA Show, where some panelists tested on/off the course, you know how 20,000 steps a day can be an issue on a poor surface, but not in TRUE shoes.
Comfort & Fit
Comfort is where TRUE Linkswear shines. The shoes received high marks for fit and overall feel, with many panelists praising their lightweight construction. Most golfers found them roomy yet supportive, offering ample space where needed. Arch support was a point of discussion. One golfer noted, "If you have custom orthotics, these are great shoes, but without them, arch support could be improved."
Grip & Traction
Panelists rated the traction 4.5 out of 5, with most finding it reliable on various surfaces. A theme among panelists was mentions of excellent grip on dry grass. We’ve heard rumors a standard spiked model will be released this spring.
Breathability & Temperature Control
The shoes scored well in breathability, with most reviewers giving them a 4.4 out of 5 rating in cold and warm weather. TRUE Linkswear’s materials allowed for good air circulation, preventing overheating during summer rounds and insulation from the cold.
Durability & Water Resistance
Most panelists felt the shoes were durable enough for regular golf play. Water resistance-wise, each model is clearly labeled with that feature on the company's website, like the TRUE Lux G, which is a favorite among consumers.
Final Verdict
TRUE Linkswear continues to deliver a stylish, comfortable golf shoe that excels in lightweight performance and breathability. While grip could be improved, the overall design makes it a strong contender for golfers who prioritize comfort and style.
Would our panelists recommend them? A resounding yes. While shopping, check out the TRUE Future Staples Hoodie they can’t keep in stock or their premium gloves.
