True Linkswear LUX Pro Review
Golf Shoe · 14 rounds in my bag

8.4/ 10
The short version
First swing with the True Linkswear LUX Pro and I forgot about my feet for 18 holes, which is the highest praise a golf shoe gets. I walked 36 in a day and had no hot spots, wet grass and all. The catch: the traction gives up on steep wet slopes before the rest of the shoe does.
How it played
I put it in play for 14 rounds and never babied it — wet mornings, baked-out afternoons, the lot. What I keep coming back to is that I forgot about my feet for 18 holes, which is the highest praise a golf shoe gets. Where it bit me: the traction gives up on steep wet slopes before the rest of the shoe does — worth knowing before you spend the money.
How it looks
Clean enough to wear to lunch afterwards without anyone noticing. I care less about that than how it feels, but it does not hurt.
What won me over
- light enough to walk 36 in
- no break-in period at all
- the grip holds through a full wet-weather swing
Good to know before you buy
- traction fades on steep wet ground
- the sizing runs a half size small
My verdict
8.4/10 from me. If you walk, and your feet have opinions by the 14th, the True Linkswear LUX Pro earns its spot in the bag. If traction fades on steep wet ground is a dealbreaker for you, keep looking.
