FootJoy Women's Flex XP 2022 Shoe Review

The Flex XP is the latest offering from FootJoy's more sporty looking line of footwear. I adore these shoes and am still a big fan of the previous year's model. These are another level of comfortable, they put a spring in your step and feel more like a running shoe than a golf shoe.

They kept my feet exceedingly comfortable temperature wise and this was thanks a cleverly engineered waterproof yet breathable mesh upper. It looks like it would just attract dust and dirt especially in damp conditions. Yet giving a rainy bunker lesson wet sand whilst wearing these, I glanced down at my feet expecting to see dirty toes and they were as new. They're waterproof, yet don't look it. They also go through the washing machine perfectly well without affecting this quality. 

It is the comfort levels that really made me fall for these - the sole is so cushioned and springy. The EVA midsole helps to stabilise the foot and provides brilliant support as you swing the club, even in wet conditions. 

As always the winner for me is the versatility of a golf shoe. Can I wear it on and off the golf course? Can I chase my kids around an adventure playground in it because it looks better than any of the pairs of trainers I own? Can I actually do a HIIT workout  and feel I get the same performance as my usual trainers? The answer to all these questions with the 2022 Flex XP is an emphatic yes. I'd also place them among the best waterproof women's golf shoes because of how comfortable and versatile they are. 

I'd highly recommend the beautiful Beige/Peach/White colorway that I tested. They boast a gentle flash of aubergine on the sole and ooze athletic style. The Teal and Lime option is equally attractive, though. At £109.99 they'd be pricey as a Summer only shoe but I believe I'll wear these all year round thanks to their one year waterproof warranty. If a specific Winter shoe is what you are after maybe consider a golf boot, but for all of the worst weather the Flex XP will serve you well.
