  • Our take on the OluKai Wai‘alae

    The OluKai Wai'alae is a spikeless golf shoe built on full-grain waterproof leather, with a Wet Grip Rubber outsole and a removable, washable footbed. It is the rare golf shoe that looks at home off the course, so it suits players who walk from the car to the clubhouse to the first tee without changing shoes. Against spiked shoes it gives up some bite in soft, steep lies, and against sportier spikeless models it is heavier and less breathable. Owners tend to praise the leather, the comfort for walking and the grip on damp turf; the common complaints are the stiff break-in and the leather scuffing.

    Best forGolfers who want one shoe for the course and the clubhousePlayers who walk 18 and want a cushioned, roomy fitDamp-morning and dewy-turf roundsWide-footed golfers tired of narrow sport shoes
    Pros

    • Wet Grip Rubber outsole holds on damp fairways and greens
    • Removable footbed can be pulled out and washed
    • Spikeless sole is course-legal and fine on pavement and in the car
    • Roomy toe box and cushioned midsole suit long walking rounds
    Cons

    • Heavier than knit and mesh spikeless shoes
    • Less traction than spiked shoes on steep, wet slopes
    • Light-colored leather scuffs and shows wear quickly
    • Limited ventilation on hot days

    Questions and answers

    Is the OluKai Wai'alae really waterproof?
    Yes. The upper is full-grain waterproof leather, and owners report dry feet through dew and light rain. It is not a rubber boot, so standing water above the leather line will get in.
    How does it fit compared with other golf shoes?
    It runs roomy, especially in the toe box, and suits wide feet. Shoppers between sizes often size down; those with narrow feet may want a thicker sock.
    Are spikeless soles allowed on golf courses?
    Yes. Spikeless shoes are accepted at nearly all courses, and the Wai'alae's rubber outsole is fine on greens. Check with stricter private clubs that still require traditional spikes.
    How does it compare with spiked golf shoes?
    It gives up some traction on steep, wet slopes but is more comfortable to walk in and can be worn off the course. Spiked shoes still win for aggressive swingers in soft conditions.
    Can I replace the footbed?
    The footbed is removable, so you can wash it or swap in an orthotic. The shoe has no built-in arch support beyond the stock footbed.
    How should I care for the leather?
    Wipe off dirt and grass after each round and let the shoes air dry away from direct heat. A leather conditioner keeps the full-grain upper from drying and cracking.
    Where is the OluKai Wai‘alae cheapest?
    At Zappos, for $159.99, as of our latest check.
    Where can I buy the OluKai Wai‘alae?
