It is estimated that you take over 10,000 steps when you walk an 18-hole golf course (between 3 and 6 miles depending on the course and how good or bad your game is!)
You want your shoes to give you stability and traction during your swing. But do you really need to wear those stiff, rigid golf shoes? Leguano Barefoot Shoes are the most comfortable minimalist shoe for hitting the links in.
Leguano Barefoot Shoes put your body in a more natural alignment which can lead to better posture and less strain on the joints. This in turn may lead to fewer injuries. Wearing barefoot shoes tends to strengthen feet, typically resulting in a more solid and sturdy foundation. The zero-drop heel can also lead to a more balanced stance.
Let’s have a look at important features you want in a golf shoe and why Leguano Barefoot Shoes are ideal for your golf game:
1. Feel
Leguano barefoot shoes have a thin sole that allows you to have a better connection to the ground. This sensory feedback will let you feel the slope of the land and the denseness of the sand. The patented Lifolit Sole is non-slip and allows for traction during your golf swing. The sole also protects your feet from any sharp twigs or stones lurking in the grass.
2. Breathability
Golfing in hot weather can be uncomfortable, especially in traditional golf shoes. Feet can often feel like they are on fire! Leguano Barefoot Shoes, with their breathable mesh upper, allow moisture to escape keeping your feet cool.
3. Style
There are many styles of Leguano Barefoot Shoes to choose from. You can match a pair with all of your favorite golf outfits to be fashionable on and off the course.
4. Weight
Traditional golf shoes are heavy, and feet can feel tired and sore after 18 holes. Leguanos are super lightweight, almost like you are wearing nothing (that’s why they are called Barefoot Shoes!) After an afternoon of golf, your feet will thank you.
5. Comfort
When walking so many steps, you want your feet to be as comfortable as possible. Leguanos flexible sole, wide toe box and elastic mesh upper allow the feet to move freely.
6. Antibacterial
Leguano Barefoot Shoes are antibacterial, keeping them fresher longer.
An added bonus is that you can wear them to and from the course, at the clubhouse for drinks after your round and when travelling, you can even wear them on the plane. Leguano Barefoot Shoes are machine washable and dry quickly, so you’ll be fresh and ready for your next round.
There is an adjustment period when transitioning to Leguano Barefoot Shoes. If you are not used to being barefoot, you will need time for your feet to strengthen. Wear them around the house, on shopping trips and gradually build up your foot strength so you can wear them for a full round of 18.
