Hyperflex by FootJoy: The Ultimate Golf Shoes for Comfort, Grip & Stability

FootJoy is stepping onto the fairway with the Hyperflex, a design so cutting-edge you might wonder if these shoes can read greens on their own.

They just might—this powerhouse from FootJoy, the brand that’s reigned as the #1 shoe on the PGA Tour for eight decades, aims to push golf footwear into a whole new stratosphere of performance and comfort.

FootJoy’s devotion to innovation is on full display here: the new Hyperflex harnesses the ever-popular StratoFOAM cushioning for a smooth ride that actually helps reduce foot fatigue.

A midsole built to absorb shock while returning energy to your swing? Yes, please—sounds like the golf world’s version of a superhero origin story.

And the brand’s proprietary TruFIT System offers a flexible, slip-on feel in the forefoot, with a heel that’s locked in tighter than your favourite belt buckle.

Now, let’s talk traction—because without it, you’re basically dancing on ice. The redesigned OptiFlex outsole is engineered to pivot where and when you need it most, aided by LP Pulsar cleats plus extra grip elements that dig into the turf like a hungry gopher.

For those craving even more horsepower underfoot, the Hyperflex Carbon includes a moulded carbon fibre power plate that keeps your foot stable while you’re channelling your inner Bryson or Rory.

Tour pros certainly haven’t wasted time trying these out. Justin Thomas, long known for wearing a more classic style shoe, jumped into the new Hyperflex after realising the blend of comfort and support was too good to resist.

If JT’s giving it the nod, you can safely bet it’s a shoe that means business. Corey Conners, Francesco and Edoardo Molinari, and Haotong Li have also joined the Hyperflex roster, leaving behind their previous models in favour of that sweet combination of flex and control.
