Golf Shoes for FAT & Wide Footed Golfer

Looking for a new pair of golf shoes that will offer comfort and performance. I currently use FJ DriJoys and they were @ the time The Most comfortable pair I've owned. I like the way ECCO's look but I have not seen them in a wide platform. Addias seem to run narrower then most. Any suggestions for us larger frame WIDE foot walking behemoths?

Adidas does offer some WIDE "W" sizes. I'm in the same boats (pun intended).

I like either NIke or Footjoy shoes. Both come in Wide sizes, and I'd recommend you try on a few paris at a local Golfsmith store, and then go HIT a bunch of golf balls into their instore net to see how the feel when hitting balls. That's what I always do now that the idea came to me. It works MUCH better than just waling around it the store for 5 minutes. Try it and I think you will agree that it works quite well.

I use cross training shoes without any spikes. I weigh 305 and wear size 16D shoes. Haven't had a problem in years with stability.

Nor should you...those aren't called shoes, at 16D we call that a "foundation"...

Re: Golf Shoes for FAT & Wide Footed Golfer

I have super narrow feet (AAA)...mom shaped my feet with leather buckle shoes until I was 6...anyway, Adidas is the best for fitting narrow that I've found, and Nike is all but unusable even in their most narrow size...I've seen their wide shoes; they seem like a good place to start looking...

Re: Golf Shoes for FAT & Wide Footed Golfer

I usually buy golf shoes from golfshoesonly.com because they usually carry all sizes.

I have relatively small and wide feet (7 1/2 W), which makes it almost impossible to find the right size at local stores.

I have 2 pair of Ecco and I love them. I also wear a wide shoe. I bought one pair off ebay and one pair from Martins. They both feel and fit great. And the waterproof factor is right on. No more wet feet for me.
