Have you heard of Kikkor Golf? If not, it’s time you did.

I’m just a chick who loves shoes (aren’t we all?)… so I was on high alert for news out of the PGA Show about shoes. I took notice of Kikkor Golf because they’re storming on the scene with a fresh new look not seen elsewhere in the golf shoe arena. Think young, think hip, think shoes you’d wear OFF the course. I immediately wanted some so of course I tweeted that sentiment. Next thing I know, I get an email with a shipping notification that said “Your box of awesomeness is on its way!” Two days later, I’m sporting these:

When they asked me which ones I wanted, I felt like a kid in a candy store. So many fun colors and styles! Ultimately, I chose the Kikkor Tenny in White Classic because they looked so comfortable I thought I’d want to wear them a lot and white goes with more outfits.

I opened the box and was immediately delighted with not only the look, but the smell. I picked a bad day to stop sniffing glue. Talk about fresh off the line!

Then I put them on. Ohhhh… joy. They are like wearing pillows. But solid pillows, you know? Gotta have good support to feel confident out there in your stance. Not too many golf shoes are immediately comfortable. I can’t wait to wear them out on the course. I will get into more details about their special spike technology and performance once I put them in play.

A quick style note: These shoes are versatile! The fashionable skate-look can and will look good off the course. Once you wear the spikes down, you’ve got a cool new pair of street shoes. Then you just have to go golf shoe shopping again. Oh, the horror! I have my eye on the Tenny Clayburn already.

Also… sneaky clever! I  really dig the logo… looks like a spike and mirrored K’s for Kikkor all at once.  Kudos to the designer!
