I Tried True Linkswear OG Feel Zero Drop Golf Shoes | Are They Barefoot Golf Shoes? 

Mark...so cool you are a fan. I still love mine, but haven't played in a while either. Maybe I'll get on the links again soon! Thanks for the support!

My pleasure!!!

Interesting...if you test them out, let me know.

I do agree, they did not really advertise that it's a "barefoot" shoe, and I've changed the title of the review so viewers do not find it misleading. However, per the product specs on the Linkswear OG Feel, they are in fact "zero-drop construction" and have a "wide toe box" which are two of the main attributes of all of the barefoot shoes I have reviewed and made videos on (Vivobarefoot and XeroShoes among them). I don't find that the heal on my OG shoes is elevated. In regards to support, Linkswear advocates that they want to remove " ...all inhibitions between the player and the turf, OG Feel allows you to feel the breeze and course beneath your feet in a whole new way." So, pretty darn close to being a barefoot shoe. Here's an article explaining what a barefoot shoe is according to Gotham Footcare in Manhatten, NY. tinyurl.com/2wuhn9xx. I know the shoes won't be for everybody. Sounds like your Pumas are your perfect golf shoe, so good on you.

Aaron, good question. Are you currently wearing barefoot shoes for any exercising or running off the course? The reason I'm asking is because if you are not used to running in barefoot shoes, it will take some getting used to. Your achilles needs to "elongate" if you've been wearing Nike or Adidas or any other kind of running shoe regularly, and you can sometimes injure yourself if you try to adapt too quickly. That being said, if you are caddying, you would be on grass which would make the transition easier. Not a bad idea to order them, try them for a while, and see what you think. Double check their return policy and see if it's changed. I think you can wear them for up to 30 days, then return them for "credit" on another shoe? But double check before you buy and let me know how it goes!

Sean, because I've been so busy and haven't played much since I filmed the video, I have mostly been using them on the range where I practice once a week. I really like them a lot. I just had shoulder surgery this week , so won't be playing for 6 months. I wish I had more time in them, but life happens. I do like them a lot in the few times I have used them though! I hope that helps!

@@FitnessFinance4u appreciate the quick response, totally understandable. I have been on the barefoot shoes for about 6 months now, now with 4 different vivo’s and i love them. Then it hit me, I play golf at least once a week and I probably would benefit from a decent set of barefoot golf shoes, I see their page has many options, just want to get a pair that i can get the right amount of traction, i agree with your balance comment though.

Thanks Martin. I got it from Stitch Fix. I looked it up but the item is no longer available. It's called the "Nigel Merino Blend Vee Neck" in Green if you are interested and it comes back in stock.

The largest size was 11.5. I wear 12’s and these are too wide. I put one shoe on.

Baker Vinci...my golf being a "sport" comment, was meant to be "tongue and cheek". Also, having been a single index player, and shooting between the high 70s and low 80s depending on the course, I do consider that I've played at a high level. Especially since only 5% of the golfers in the US break 80. (according to this article from Golfspan.com from Oct. 202 tinyurl.com/2p8uzr36.)

guess you should of bought shoes with support if you want support!???!?!?
