Payntr Golf Shoes

[Holy Moses]

Has anyone bought these? A certain major golf website gave them rated them #1 in spikeless. They look pretty nice. Their newest leather model is coming out April 1.

Also interested to hear others reactions.  Been considering pulling the trigger but their return policy isn't the greatest.  Both the 001 and 002 models look promising

Same. Looking for something with wide options and comfort. Tempting. No real explanations between 001 002 and 003 though.

I preordered them.  I guess I will get them in mid-April.

Got 001 late last season. Major traction and stability in terms of twisting the uppers. Would have waited for leather version for this year if I had known but got a pair of Cauter/TM and Puma to go along with these. 

 

Fit true to size for me FYI

Thanks for the comments. Do they stand out at all in terms of comfort or performance? Or just “solid”?

Just got my 001's yesterday and played in them for the first time. Grass is still dormant here in Kansas and was pretty wet. Zero issues with slippage. Easily the most comfortable pair of golf shoes I've had. Gave up spikes a few seasons ago, but always struggled to find a truly reliable spikeless pair. These seem to be the winner. Will probably pull the trigger on another pair or two soon.

Thanks for the review!  I’ve been always hesitant to give up spikes but this was the first pair that made me think twice.

I’m tempted to order these but the nubs on the bottom look like they’ll leave major carnage to nice bent grass greens like the ‘ol Adidas Adicross did a few year back. Any issues you guys notice?

I had gotten a pair of the 001 for Christmas.  I had to return bc I thought they ran a little small, but I'll be ordering again before summer.  Shoe was excellent quality and very comfortable.  I'm a size 9.5/10 in most shoes and with these the 9.5 was just too tight and the materials don't seem like they will stretch much.

Would love to try these but the return policy puts me off.

Just pre-ordered the 002. Pretty glowing reviews from that “other” site. I mostly walk, so comfort is #1 for me.

Yeah it's pretty surprising to see a company that doesn't offer free returns.  I completely understand they'd end up eating shipping costs but as a start up brand you can't find in retail stores it's probably a good idea to make it as easy as possible for people to try your product.

I ordered the 002 today and just got a shipping confirmation. They’ll be here Friday apparently? It said release date of 4/1 on the site though…..wonder if this might be accurate?

Yes, especially shoes.

I haven't heard anything since I ordered them.  I actually kind of forgot about them.

Haha spoken like a true WRX’er

[doc52]

Have a couple friends that game them and have no complaints. They are a local brand here in OR.

 

Designer/CEO was a part of Nike Golf and UA Golf (designed a couple of Spieth's shoes I believe). 

[UnderPar18]

Would love to order a pair but won't do to return shipping. Wish they had them locally to try on.

[Holy Moses]

Just ordered a pair of 002s yesterday. Looking forward to trying them out.

Anyone know how’s their sizing compares to other brands?

I’ve heard a bit small, but I don’t have mine yet

Just got mine in... Size 12 fits perfect like my GFOREs.

 

These are super comfy....worth a look if you walk alot.

Shoes arrived yesterday.  I haven't worn them out of the house yet, but here are my initial thoughts.  Nice looking shoes, they actually remind me of my Air Jordans.  Leather is nice quality and soft.  Shoes are comfortable, and heel cup is good.  Sole seems like it will be adequate for spikeless, but won't know for sure until I get it on the course.  The cushion seems decent, but I will need to use inserts with more arch support.  The inserts it comes with are standard unimpressive inserts, like most shoes.  The only real negative for me, that could be a deal breaker, is that the toe box in medium to narrow; certainly not wide.  The picture shows this well.

hows the sizing?

[fjk]

Thanks! So helpful with the comments and photos of the fit. I do need a wider toe box.

True to size.  I typically wear an 11, and the 11 fits fine.  About 1 thumb of space in front of my big toe.

Not the same style shoe, but the Adidas Solarthons are really comfortable and have a decently wide toe box.  Also look at the Footjoy Stratos; they have soft leather and a wider toe box.  I am going to wear these around the house for the next couple of days and then decide whether or not to keep them.  It's a shame, if they just had a wider toe box option, I would be super excited about these shoes.

[hammergolf]

Will any retailers be carrying these? Would like to try them on before I buy.

[jah7838]

I saw them in person for the first time at the local golf course I have a membership to, and finally had a chance to try them on.  I normally wear a size 11, and the size 11s fit just fine on my foot.  They weren't the leather ones, but they did feel really light. 

 

I'm considering getting a pair of them.  I usually don't play in spikeless shoes, but I'll hit balls on occasion in them because I'm a high school golf coach, and I don't want to keep changing into my normal golf shoes if I happen to have time to hit balls after practice with the kids.  The traction on them looks like they will give me plenty of stability.
