Some people have cocaine addictions, others alcohol and tobacco - mine is golf shoes! Is there a golf shoe rehab? I need help quickly before I buy a pair of Ecco golf shoes I have my eye on, which I don't need (and can't afford)! The sales on at the moment aren't helping and I am in danger of purchasing a couple of pairs - does anyone else have this addiction, or am I just a bit odd?

Mr Ramowski, stop being an enabler. The man is crying out for help and you do that to him. You should be ashamed of yourself Darren H - I also like golf shoes but also own some willpower and self-restraint. Oh, and a wife that scares me |

I have a golf ball addiction but that's because I lose so many. |

Darren R - you're not helping with your links - are you a dealer? |

Darren R - I'll meet you in the alley next to the chip shop - £50 cash, need them in a size 9. I'll stop now, this is getting weird! |

I recently tried on a pair of Ecco Biom shoes - probably the most comfortable footwear, of any type, that i've ever worn. But £170? |

Paul - the 'Biom's' are the ones I want, but as you state £170 is very hard to justify (and they never seem to be in any sales) - i've now decided to treat myself to a pair, when I get my handicap down to 17 (although I'll tell the other half that they cost around £80!). |

Sounds good Darren, at that price we can have a pair each for £160. I'll tell the mrs! |

I have the same addiction 6 pairs! Nike TW SP8.5, TW2009, TW2010, Nike Tour Premium and 2 pairs of Callaway X Series. I've got my eye on the new TW 2012s in black and another pair white, heres praying for a good bonus next month |

I was always an adipure man but I've been converted to the Nike TW 2011. Like wearing slippers. |

£1000 for some hand made ones http://www.golfshake.com/news/view/2646/Royal_Albartross.html |

Darren's - Royal Albatros are pretty much the ultimate in my opinion (that link is golf shoe porn), I need to work on my game to justify £355+ on a pair of golf shoes though (and buy the Mrs' something expensive!) - perhaps when I get my handcap down to single figures! |

I have to agree Darren. Im working on the mrs for a pair of these but things are not looking good. I think this is going to have to be a long haul approach. lol
P.S there is no am i good enough at this game justification needed. I need these golf shoes love as they will help me to play better.( wink, wink) |

Darren - I know what you mean about the long haul approach (unfortunately I've already used the 'they will help me play better' routine with previous golf shoes and it's wearing a bit thin now!). If you are a size 8.5 - 9, perhaps we could go halves and alternate the weeks we use them?! |

LOL @ Darren |

Darren - we go halves and you keep the left shoe and I keep the right?! There must be a way we can work this! A mate of mine turned up at the driving range today in a pair of white and navy blue Stuburt Darren Clarke's - a very traditional shoe, but actually super cool and at £160 a pair, a little more in my realm (the Mrs' is still an issue though - she wants to spend any spare money on a Kitchenaid mixer - whatever that is?!). |
