Ecco Women’s Biom C4 Golf Shoe Review

Ecco’s Biom C4 hybrid golf shoe was first introduced in 2022 and has since become a very popular model in the brand’s collection, renowned for exceptional comfort and stability. I therefore had high expectations that this spikeless shoe would deliver on all accounts as one of the best women’s golf shoes for 2024?

The women’s model is available in four colorways including beige, white, and new for 2024, limestone and blue bell. I tested the shoe in white, it’s actually off-white, and the tongue and around the heel is a light shade of pink, which complements the sole in the same color. It’s a smart looking shoe, there’s no fussy detailing, although the outsole has plenty to consider, aa it’s split into three sections, designed in this way to provide ultimate traction, stability and rotational support. 

First impression, the high-quality leather is extremely soft to touch, especially the toe area,  similar to Duca del Cosma’s Alesi model, but was this shoe as comfortable as it looked? I can honestly say, while there are many women’s golf shoes on the market that provide comfort, in my opinion, the BIOM C4 tops the list as far as cushioning and overall comfort is concerned - over 18 holes I felt like I was wearing a pair of comfy slippers.

The comfort this shoe provides is largely thanks to the stretchy mesh sock and Ecco’s Fluidform Direct Comfort technology, which is a process that uses specialised fluid materials for cushioning and rebound that also creates a flexible and durable bond without the compromises common with stitched or glued assemblies.

But that’s not all…until testing this shoe, I had not been a fan of the Boa lacing system, but now I’m sold, because I could easily create the perfect fit by simply turning the dial.

I’ve always rated the performance of Ecco golf shoes, like the LT1 model, that joins Ecco's lineup for the 2024 season, because aside from comfort, they feature advanced technology that allow women to feel stable and in control. Biom stands for biomechanical optimisation, and it’s this technology that enhances the foot’s ability to move more naturally and close to the ground. 

On every shot, the three-section outsole did a great job, as I felt significant grip and support, on a par with FootJoy’s spikeless Pro/SLX and the spiked model from adidas, the Tour360 24. One thing I would say, with three different sections that feature small holes, it’s not the easiest outsole to keep clean if you wear this shoe in muddy conditions.

The Biom C4 does have a hefty price tag, but for superior comfort and first-class performance, this spikeless shoe is hard to beat.
