Junior golf shoes

Well-equipped from the start

A young golfer progresses faster with suitable equipment, and shoes are part of that. They provide stable footing to learn a balanced swing without slipping during the body rotation, and the comfort needed to walk the course without getting tired. Junior shoes take on the technologies of adult models from major brands, in sizes and shapes suitable for children's feet.

The brands

Footjoy, the most worn shoe brand on professional circuits, offers junior models with spikes, which are sturdy and waterproof. The Puma PWRAdapt, with spikes, provides good lateral support for the swing. The Under Armour Surge, without spikes, lightweight, is inspired by running shoes for walking comfort. The Nike Infinity G, without spikes, looking like a sneaker, can also be worn off the golf course. They all support young golfers from golf school to their first tournaments.

Waterproofing and maintenance

On the course, the grass is often wet in the morning: a waterproof shoe keeps feet dry and warm. Check the shoe size each season, leaving about a centimetre in front of the toes, as children's feet grow quickly. Replace the worn spikes on models that have them to maintain grip. After a round, remove mud and grass from the sole with a brush, stuff the shoes with paper, and let them air dry.

Good deals

Good deals can also be found in good plans, promotions, clearance, sales, and Black Friday. The new arrivals showcase the latest collections, and items shipped in 24h are prepared and dispatched within 24 hours. The key events of the year follow a stable order: Black Friday at the end of autumn, the year-end holidays, winter sales, spring French Days, followed by summer sales and back to school.

Frequently asked questions

How to tell if a junior golf shoe is the right size?

Have the child lace the shoe while standing: the heel should not lift when walking, and you should be able to slide a thumb between the big toe and the end. Have them mimic a swing to check that the foot does not slip.

Are junior golf shoes suitable for competitions?

Yes, spike models provide the necessary grip in tournaments, on courses that can be wet and hilly. Many young competitors keep a pair with spikes for competitions and a pair without spikes for practice.

What outfit to prepare for golf school?

Polo, golf trousers or shorts, and suitable shoes: most clubs require appropriate attire, without jeans or football shirts. Also, pack a cap and a waterproof windbreaker for sessions in changing weather.

How to dry wet golf shoes?

Remove the insole, stuff the shoe with newspaper, and let it dry at room temperature. Radiators or hairdryers can harden the leather and loosen the sole; replace the paper every few hours.

At what age should a child be bought golf shoes?

As soon as the child plays regularly, in golf school or on the course, proper shoes help keep their footing during the swing. For the very first initiation sessions at the practice, a clean pair of trainers is enough.
