Today from the Forums: “Great golf shoes under $200”
Today from the Forums shines the spotlight on golf shoes priced under $200. In this category, Adidas Golf’s Tech Response 2.0 golf shoes have mightily impressed WRXer tsecor, who says:
“Not only are these very light on the feet but are very stable for such a light platform. They wrapped around your feet for a very nice feel At $70; they seem like a steal. I’m hoping these last at least three seasons, and I’m done spending over $200 for golf shoes. It’s been seven years since I bought a pair because the last 360s i bought lasted quite a while. The technology of the newer shoes is ridiculous nowadays.”
Tsecor asks WRXers whether they have also found a golf shoe priced under $200 that was a great fit for them and our members have been having their say in our forum.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- Power fade: “Got two pairs of True linkswear shoes in their mystery box black Friday sale. Strongly suggest if you find yourself in need of new shoes come November. $75 a piece for zero drop shoes is about as good as it gets.”
- Togatown22: “OP; nice pickup, I love getting a deal on golf shoes. Now that you know your size in Adidas models, make sure you check the off-season sale sites like Carlsgolfland, budgetgolf, TGW, ETC, and even the Adidas site for great deals. I’ve gotten multiple pairs of Tour360’s for less than $100. I definitely saw the 360XT’s (last years colors) for around $125 a few different times this winter. My favorite deals are the ones where I’ve been able to grab a company’s top line/tour shoe for around $100. sometimes as low as $65!”
- Markrip: “I’ve never spent more than $40 on a pair of shoes. I just get last years off the discount rack at Dick’s or somewhere else.”

Neal Shipley, AKA, the “Big Fridge’s,” custom stamping
Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.
That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.
On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.

“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”
On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”
“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.

I’m finding it hard to find good shoes with Boa laces. That’s really disappointing. I wanted to replace a pair of Tour360s and could only get lace-up, including from Adidas themselves.

Ebay is your friend. If you are going to a store and paying retail for the latest model year then you are a sucker. 60 bucks can get you a great pair of shoes that were selling for like 150 bucks last year.
