Assuming Phil isn't wearing the TS Jordans today because they are literally the worst, least comfortable golf shoe ever made 😂. Love the look, but no shot I'm walking 18 in those things. Cart golf only.

Looks like we have a US OPEN NEXT% after all 👀 

 

 

Are those FJ socks?

[anw79]

I had my instructor tell me to ditch my air max 90g due to the heel toe drop and the fact that they are promoting me getting out on my toes too much at setup.  I have to say I never really gave shoe performance/design much thought other than what I like the look of, but makes sense.  Fortunately they are a couple years old now anyway lol.

Yeah, FJ makes good socks.

Yeah I agree, but it's hard not to see Brooks not swooshed out.  

[Pvgolf23]

Funny, you guys are commenting on socks, when Nike makes NRG’s but doesn’t release them, and nobody has any info on it.

Has anyone tried the Victory Pro 3s? Are they a decent budget option? Or are they cheaper than they look?

I’ve been walking in my 1s, they are pretty decent. I replaced the insoles and that seems to have helped

I'd love to see some limited edition Roshe options w/ removable spikes, the normal golf Roshe's always slip.

What you want are the Roshe Tours. Not sure why they stopped making them.

Unpopular opinion, but I think the Roshes (golf, tour, whatever version) are so boring. Nothingburger shoe with a swoosh. I remember when they came out and they were pretty universally shat upon, for me the golf version is the same. It's weird to me to see everyone treating these like the pinnacle of nike golf shoes. They're like the chinos or Wrangler jeans of golf shoes.

 

Thank you for letting me get that off my chest. 🙂

Walked 18 Friday with them on a muni course with a range of lies and they're pretty comfy straight out of the box.  Replaced my Adidas 360 Tours with the black and the upper quality surprised me from what I could see on the website.  Not as good as my FJ Premiere, but still a good waterproof option that has excellent grip.

it was designed to an inexpensive minimalist shoe to mimic barefoot running.  get a pair of the original models and wear them all summer with no socks, check back in afterwards......never intended to be a golf shoe but the tour's were comfy and very clean looking.

The Roshe is supposed to be making a comeback this year as it was a popular silhouette. Aside from the Roshe G Next Nature, I hope they bring a Roshe Tour back or some spiked variation of the shoe. The non-golf Roshe was one of my favorite shoes as it was extremely comfortable and they definitely nailed it with the tour. Such a clean simple look but with the traction you need from a golf shoe and the leather had a clean look. Fleetwood and Hovland we're the last people wearing the shoe on tour I believe they need to bring it back. Looks like they both have moved on from it probably from limited availability or no more stock. Great golf shoe

This shoe, according to some, is the greatest Nike golf shoe ever made. So boring and average comfort.

Yes! Finally we are rising up against this travesty of a shoe everyone keeps clamoring for! 😂 Booty looks and booty feel.

 

I got the VT3 that I picked up during the 20% sale out today, pretty good - these and Next% have been my favorite Nike golf shoes of late.

I don't love them either...But I'm also not sure you've ever seen dockers lol. 

[jpdx]

Ive never really been a fan of the roshe tours. To be fair, i didnt try them on course, but did try them on and walked around. The lcv 2 (iirc correctly) and jordan 11’s have the same sole and tons more comfort out of the box walking around.

Best range day shoe, especially when it's hot.

[DoubleBogeyPapi]

For those of you guys hating on the Roshe Tour, what's your shoe of choice then? It's not in my top 3 but definitely not bottom 3. I'd say it's a mid to high-tier show on my list. I don't think all the hate it's getting is deserved lol. Especially looking at how many people on tour played in it. I'm pretty sure Rory too before the Victory Tours. It's a clean silhouette with a quality leather look. Whenever I saw Fleetwood wearing the white ones, I believe it made me want to get a pair. I have them in black so I wear them on rounds I'm wearing pants at nicer courses. 

[Drwoods2017]

I won't stand for this roshe tour slander.  It gave us some of the best major pack colorways ever. As well as being an affordable high quality golf shoes.  It sounds to be like a lot of people never tried it on or wore it but just didn't like the regular street shoe version.  Those are 2 completely different things. It might have been a mid tier shoe but its a lot better than what nike is making today.

[DonRSD]

Roshe cleat version was good BESIDES for the fact the toe box was crazy long. Looked like a dress shoe with the pointy tip.

 

I have 2 custom pair of Jordan 11 low football cleats that both have the Roshe cleat bottom and love them.....made my own space jam and bred Jordan 11 golf shoes 🙂

if I remember correctly, around the same time the Nike react vapor 2 had the long square dress shoe vibe, too.

It was more squared off  but didnt really give the dress shoe vibe to me.
