Older golf shoes in really good condition, what do you do with them?


Recommended Posts

I was just cleaning out my locker at the club to reduce clutter and found some great shoes that are a couple years old worn less than 10 times. I already have plenty of other pairs, what do you guys do when you still have shoes that are in good shape but you don’t really want to wear anymore? Is there a market for them? Donate them? Throw them out?

 

just trying to see what some others in the same boat do.

Tavel shoes?

I like to pack light when I travel, often this means I bring old clothes and ditch them along the way, when their usefulness runs out. I done this before when I had business travel but was going to play a round of golf on the trip. The golf clothes I needed only made a one way trip.

Otherwise I donate to goodwill.

I always keep an old pair of golf shoes for lawn work, especially mowing. Good grip, comfortable, and waterproof is a perfect combination for working in the yard.

Not sure about you, but I have a few smaller 6 foot putting greens in my basement to practice putting after hours.  I always wondered about stance height when practicing putting shoe-less vs playing a real round putting with shoes.  Thus, I cut up an older pair and made some slip on cleats.  I keep them down by my putting greens so when I practice, I can just slip them on be at the same "game" height putting.  Always looking for that extra edge!

Some become mudders and others become grass mowing shoes.

I keep a few pairs on hand and rotate them throughout their life.  Once I view them as end of life they are "saved" for the winter when it gets a bit muddy.  When a new muddy season gets here and a new muddy pair of shoes goes in the old pair comes home for yard work.  My front yard has a pretty steep hill and the cleats help.  When new yard shoes come in I throw the old yard ones away.

 

If you are one of those guys with ten pairs of shoes and is just constantly buying new shoes, then give them to Goodwill when you won't wear them any more.

If I know I'm never going to wear them again I just donate to charity.  I always purchase my shoes in pairs allowing for rotation so I tend to get a long life from them.  But when its time they go to Goodwill.  I also donate my old clubs and balls to our clubs First Tee program since not many kids would fit into my 11 1/2 wide Footjoys.

Believe it or not, there is actually a market for used shoes on ebay. However, you wont get much for them. I sold 5 pairs last week. $15 for shipping and ~$20 per pair. In the past I have donated them to either Goodwill or The First Tee. I haven't been out much so I didnt want to make an extra trip to donate. I also keep a pair for yardwork (you know, you need the spikes for mowing that lawn!). Also, golf shoes are great for snow.
