Shoe Bags

Anyone use them and, if so, what brand? Any features that you specifically look for? I'm due for a new one and was checking out the ones from Jones.

I have four of them that I got free from charity golf scrambles. The best one I have is made by FJ. I mean its a golf shoe bag. If it has a handle and zips your are good.

Didn't you make fun of me for not having a brand name one? :taunt:

I have a FJ one and a Datrek one. Honestly, no noticeable difference in functionality, just that the FJ one is obviously much nicer quality product.

When I travel with my clubs, I have to be careful not to exceed the 50# airline limit so these days I usually just use the FootJoy individual cloth bags that my shoes came in. 1/2# here and 1/2# there and I don't pay the excess baggage charge.

I got a Jones one monogrammed and love it. Not much to it, it’s a shoe bag, but the Jones one is pretty classy.

ETA: I like the second zip on the Jones bag— it’s a small compartment that has enough room for tees, a cleat wrench, a sleeve of balls, etc.

I have an Izzo one that I got years ago. Can't seem to find the same model online anymore. it has side pockets that i put socks in. it is heavy and well made.

I also have a flimsy taylormade one i got at a charity event.

both do the same job just fine.

Couldn't agree more. I have Jones as well. In addition to great second pocket, it just plain looks good. Give it a try!

I made my own.

I have a few bags, it's just simple and great to have around to throw your shoes in. I dont think you need to spend a lot on them, I usually get mine for free from my local golf store when I buy a pair of shoes.

Pic or it didn't happen lol

This is the one I use. Plenty of room. Nylon canvas is light and easy to clean. And the U-shaped zipper makes it easy to get one thing, or everything, in or out. Full zipper also means I can dump (or vacuum) out grass and dirt when needed.

Ordered the Jones classic shoe bag today in white/navy. The second pocket is really a nice feature, especially since I like to leave a pair of shoes in the each car for range sessions. I can keep things a little better organized.

Jones is my go to.

Nike Sport Shoe bag. It has mesh panels for ventilation.

Wilson staff - almost the Nike bag above with a better handle. Two zippers, one in each direction.

I've got a footjoy and a nike one, bought them to match my shoes. The footjoy one I have is a bit nicer, but the only important thing is that they keep the shoes together in the trunk of my car, which they do just fine..

My only real requirement for a shoe bag is a mesh top that lets it breathe. I use shoe trees in all of my boots so those and the mesh tops on the bag makes sure the shoes get dried out thoroughly.

I got my Jones shoe bag in a couple of weeks ago. Really like it a lot. Bigger than what I have now, but the shoes fit more easily and I like the second pocket to store random stuff. These have air holes for ventilation, similar to my old bag, and it's always worked out pretty well.

McKenzie make a nice leather bag but it comes with a price. Similarly Elliot bag company has nice shoe bags. If you get a good leather one it will last years and improve in looks as it wears. But, hey, it is only for holding shoes, though it’s always nice to treat oneself to a little golfing luxury every now and then!

Jones is the best I've found... and I've tried a lot.

Somewhat of an odd question I admit, but does all that white on the Jones bag stay clean? I have to think that's a branding point, but just wondered.

Mine looks fine after a few years of use.

I have quite a few. A mix of Datrek, to Nike, to TM. My favorite ones are Nike with a partial mesh top. They’re all charity outing swag though.

Vons grocery bag proud over here. My friend uses a shoe warehouse bag. I didn't know this was a real thing...Seems a little ridiculous. Pros and Cons of a shoe bag vs. not having a shoe bag?

I have a ~$20 FJ bag I really like. I wanted a full zip top (opens all the way for easy cleaning) and mesh for ventilation bigger than the metal disks on bags like Jones. I wanted to make sure even if I forgot to take my shoes out there would be plenty of ventilation to dry.

Also this bag has a nice top handle that makes it easy to hang and a second pocket I use surprisingly often.

I have 5-6 shoe bags because I hate leaving my shoes out. Sometimes, I'll just throw a pair a backpack. The majority of mine are Nikes. I have one that I got off Ebay for like $10. I saw the Crab and Cleek shoe bag made out of pin flags that I've been thinking about getting.

Blasphemous. This is golf we're talking about here, where we take every little aspect of the game and find a way to make it more personal, detailed, upscale and expensive than common sense would dictate otherwise.

How much you want for that grocery bag??

My favorite is actually the dust bags that used to come with Nike Golf shoes.

I live in California, brah. I'm hoarding these grocery bags because plastic is going going gone. Crazy times we live in.

I seriously don't get these bags though. I understand that every fine thing in life needs some sort of protection or case (clubs, phones, cars, guns, suits, etc. etc.) but, this one puzzles me. I put my shoes in my golf bag because i have the space but remove them too.
