In this review of the FootJoy Men's Prolite Previous Season Style Golf Shoe, the bottom line is simple: this is a lightweight, waterproof golf shoe aimed at players who want comfortable, stable performance for full rounds without a heavy, bulky feel. The reviewer found the shoe well made and good looking, with true waterproof protection that keeps feet dry in wet conditions. Fit can be variable for some customers, so sizing attention is advised, but for those who get the right fit the combination of comfort, traction, and value makes it an attractive choice.

Key Features

  • Waterproof Uppers: Performance synthetic uppers provide reliable waterproofing to keep feet dry in normal course conditions.
  • Underfoot Cushioning: A soft EVA midsole supplies increased cushioning for longer rounds and helps absorb walking impact.
  • Stable Support: The midsole design also delivers enhanced comfort and exceptional stability through swings and walks.
  • Durable Outsole: The DuraMax Rubber Race Trak outsole provides versatile traction across varied surfaces on the course.
  • Lightweight Performance: Overall construction emphasizes a lighter athletic feel suitable for players who prefer less weight on their feet.

Who It's For

The FootJoy Men's Prolite is best for recreational and club golfers who value comfort, waterproofing, and a lighter athletic silhouette rather than a bulky traditional golf shoe. It suits players who walk the course and need consistent traction and cushioning for 18 holes.

Golfers who need a very narrow or exceptionally wide fit, or those who demand spiked traction for soft turf, may want to consider other models. Also, if precise sizing is critical, try these on or confirm return options because customer feedback shows mixed experiences with fit.
