Waiting for someone to return theirs and it to go on the sale tab.

There should be a couple 33" straps show up on the special page. We had a sizing problem (more my fault I believe) and PG stepped up and made a different size.
My 3 Handmade belts are insane. I'm not a flashy guy, so I went grey white and black lizard solids with subtle contrasting stitching.

I wear a size 36" waist, so I don't think my fat a** will fit in those haha. May be worth a shot though.

This should be your next one, one putt.

Once I have the 3wood cover made to go with the driver one my next belt will be a white croc. Not a big fan of those diamond patterns

It's currently -37* outside so I have been wearing my Gibbons shoes in the house. My wife doesn't even ask anymore.

Wow those look amazing. Ive been an icon guy forever but the pg's are on my radar.

Just curious how that leather sole holds up to wetness and moisture. I remember the fj classics had a leather sole and would soak up moisture and become super heavy.

Great review opb

2nd round update played in light rain for about 7 holes maybe a .2 inch of rain shoes held up great little muddy out there and needed a good cleaning when I got home but 0 water issues.


Shoes even more comfortable today for the 2nd round. Definitely need a round or two to break in.

I have heard nothing but awesome reviews about the company and all products. I am awaiting a putter cover bought on this site, and I want to buy shoes (I am not sure what size will fit).

Thanks for the pics and reviews.

they are pretty much spot on with FJ sizing.

I have had mine for over a year and love them. What I did to break mine in was fill the tub up ankle deep with hot water(hot as you can stand). Put the shoes on bare footed and tie them as tight as you can and then soak them a couple minutes and then wear them for a little while.

Benny you must have been a hockey player? Also you can put them in the oven at 200 degrees and heat them up and then shove your foot in them. Once they cool to room temp you can take them off.

FYI- 15% off all PG goods now through the 26th. Unfortunately, I bought a pair of shoes and a belt last night.

Hope this helps someone.

Bummer I bet if you called the shop they would give you the discount

[PreppySlapCut]

I have a scorecard holder and a cash cover, couldn't be more impressed with the work. I'm hopefully going to convince my boss to carry some of the stuff in our shop.

[atkinsinc]

I placed a second order (shoes and belt last week) as the 15% off ends this evening. I failed to call PG today, but I asked in an email if they could put it with my initial order (saving $17 in shipping).

I definitely mentioned it would be nice, but not an issue. I had an email from Patrick Gibbons himself within 30.minutes waiving shipping charges.

I have had four shopping experiences with PG Handmade over the past couple of months, with each being world class. I am and will likely remain a huge fan

[One_Putt_Blunder]

Very cool especially since PG was a bit grumpy yesterday well we all were stupid 5 hour round

[NDSwim]

I'm thinking about getting the white on white shoes as I think I can match with most any outfit.

How do these look with shorts?

Gibbons stuff is awesome. I've yet to see anything he has done that isn't top notch. Have a friend who is sponsored by him and he brought his staff bag by the shop one day. Amazing is all I can say

I'd love to see a handmade staff bag.

Very good looking shoe for a very low price for a handmade.

[edresnick]

So I wear a Foot Joy wide size. I didn't see a wide size option on the PG page. Can he do wide sizes?

He has a couple pics of the black one on his Facebook page. It's pretty cool multi colored handmade logos on the black bag.

It was a Patrick Gibbons Palooza today at my house- Black calf with Black shark shoes, black shark belt, golf towel, divot tools and ball markers arrived….

I am blown away by the quality everything. PG called to update on the order status prior to shipping, as I needed to slightly substitute in order to get items that were already in stock. I love quality, but I also value a deal. Dealing with an active owner operator (Patrick) and a friendly/helpful staff, I will gladly pay more, as I think they are a great value and people I am glad to support.

On a sure note, if anyone has any thoughts as to how to best break in and care for the shoes, please respond here or PM me.

I am going to bed happy with PG Handmade.

[One_Putt_Blunder]

I wore mine walking the dog then just broke them in the old fashion way by walking 18, I wore some padded merino wool FJ socks which helped the initial comfort and prevented any blisters for me. by round 3 they were fully broken in and super comfortable. Sadly they in the closet for the summer, black shoes feel like a microwave oven in the AZ summers.

[hanbergb]

I'm pretty impressed with the quality! Great customer service. I'm going to pick up a white python in the next few weeks, if he has a fathers day sale. I was pretty impressed with the thickness of the belt and the quality in the skin of my cash cover. Love the PG handmade!

[atkinsinc]

My second pair of PG shoes arrived today. I now have the black calf/black shark and white kangaroo/white shark.

A few thoughts: [b]Quality[/b]: amazing. It took me a year to finally buy my first pair. I bought my second pair a few weeks after receiving my first. [b]Width[/b]: I wear a wide normally, and find PG just slightly wider than normal. The width was my only concern prior to purchasing. I wore the black pair around the house for a few days to break them in (my wife continually shook her head). I had a Darius Rucker fundraiser tournament in Nashville, which seemed like a perfect place to put them in play. They felt good for 6 holes. It then became painful, and I wore a nice blister in my right foot. I knew they were not quite ready for wear, but I wanted to give them a go. I dropped them off at a shoe store today to have them stretch the toe box and will report back when I pick them up, as I hope this is an option for those with wide feet. [b]Materials selection: [/b]The calf/shark combination felt nice [b]until[/b] I received the kangaroo. There is a price jump, but I am amazed at how soft the kangaroo feels.

I am quite happy with the shoes. As soon as I can get the proper fit/break in period accomplished, I will be absolutely thrilled.

Trying to order a belt but Patrick hasn't answered the latest couple of emails. I'm sure he is busy so I'll give him a couple of days into next week but my experience is if he doesn't answer right away he doesn't answer.
