We test a lot of golf shoes here at Golf Monthly, but rarely do we test a shoe so good that it earns a lofty five stars out of five. This is because it has to deliver in every facet, and consulting our page on how we test products you can see our five-star rating is explained like this:

'Stands out from its competitive set by tangibly looking, feeling and performing better. Has innovative new technology that delivers on all attributes a golfer looks for with no significant weakness, at a price that offers value for money.'

Well one shoe that fits that is the Nike Air Pegasus 89 Shoe which we tested last year. One of the best spikeless golf shoes on the market, it is amazingly discounted already at PGA TOUR Superstore, so much so you can get a pair for as little as 100 bucks.

With the golf season ramping up and The Masters Tournament just days away, there isn't a better time to treat yourself to a new piece of golf gear ahead of what we hope will be a busy 2025 for you on the golf course.

Nike Air Pegasus '89 G Golf Shoe: was $120 now $99.98 at PGA TOUR Superstore

The best casual golf shoes work seamlessly both on and off the golf course and that's exactly what Nike have delivered with their Pegasus '89 G Shoe. Not only is this a good looking shoe, it also proved very durable for us during testing. Impressive grip under foot meant it performed excellently, making this a formidable option for those seeking quality on a budget. $20 knocked off the price makes a very appealing golf shoe that little bit more so!

The casual golf shoe market has exploded in popularity in recent years as golfers look to combine off the course fashion with high-performing golf shoes on the course. The Nike Air Jordan Low 1 Gs and New Balance 997 SL shoes come to mind when I think of some of the best models in recent years, albeit they won't tick everyone's boxes when they come to on-course performance.

When playing an important amateur event on club competition on a Sunday morning, I still tend to prefer a classic golf shoe look, but I've become increasingly reliant on my casual golf shoe collection for those quick, casual nine hole rounds in the evenings this spring. There's something I love about wearing a shoe on the course, in the clubhouse and then (maybe) to the pub afterwards that suits every environment it finds itself in. The Pegasus '89 shoes might now be my favorite shoe in that department.

Nike have taken one of their classic silhouettes and lovingly recreated it as a golf shoe, and the performance is exceptional. The main concern people have with spikeless golf shoes is a lack of grip through the swing but the wet rubber traction on offer here delivers superb multi directional grip on all types of terrain. I've worn these shoes in both dry and wet conditions and although I wouldn't wear them in seriously wet conditions, they still provide full waterproofing thanks to some synthetic leather overlays on the upper.

The comfort under foot is my favorite feature of these shoes, other than the looks of course. Like the best Nike golf shoes, the levels of responsiveness under foot is very impressive. The Pegasus ‘89 has a hidden Zoom Air unit in the heel which contributes to this softness and sense of rebound as you walk.

Like the Air Max 1 86, the heel area of the Pegasus '89 is noticeably high, which may not suit all users, but it didn't bother me personally. This is the only area I can really nitpick - these are a fantastic pair of golf sneakers that look as good as they perform. Given that they're now available for less than $100 at PGA TOUR Superstore, I don't think you'll find many better golf shoe offerings this year!
