Payntr has a distinct classic style that has been a pattern for many of their golf shoes. It has served them well as they’ve been able to grow, find success on the PGA Tour, and become a real player in the golf shoe industry.

The Payntr Sport Classic LE Golf Shoes add another model to their style line up that still retains their classic look, but is more sporty. This style often gets referred to as ‘street” style. These shoes look as comfortable off the course as they do on the course. These shoes go beyond just their style, they offer excellent cushion, comfort, support, stability and pretty darn good grip for spikeless shoes. If you love Payntr, but are also looking for a new, sporty style, these are the shoes for you.

This is my official Payntr Sport Classic LE Golf Shoes Review.

Payntr Sport Classic LE Golf Shoes

Payntr Comfort

The Payntr Sport Classic LE Golf Shoes have that out-of-the-box ready to wear comfort. These shoes have a more casual, sporty look with their full grain leather uppers. The leather is incredibly supple and flexes in all the right places with every step. The PMXNITORGEN+ Midsole offers great support while being very soft on every step. The PMX Speed plate bends while walking, but offers stability while swinging. They place thick padding around the heel area which makes them really comfortable with every step. The ORTHOLITE insole is said to compress less than 5% so it retains shape, even when it offers nice cushion.

Payntr Sport Style

The Payntr Sport Classic LE Golf Shoes have a new and unique style of Payntr. I felt like they had 2 styles, classic and athletic. These now offer a 3rd sport or street style. They pair perfectly with pants or shorts. They look good on the course as well as off the course. They come in 3 different colors: white, white and black, and black. The blend of style adds another option when you buy golf shoes that can be worn off the course. I like how these have a layered leather look which works really well.

Payntr Spikeless Grip

I am a huge fan of spikeless shoes because I like to have the ability to wear my golf shoes on or off the course. I also don’t like changing shoes to and from the course. I know there are many firmly believe in spikes for serious rounds of golf, but the Payntr Sport Classic Le Golf Shoes have what they call 3d outsole traction. The “nubs” on the entire sole of the shoe work together to grip the ground, even as the shoes flex. I found them to have excellent traction.

They also function very well of the course an any surface. The spikeless outsole seemed to flex enough to kind of self-clean as from time to time they picked up small debris on the course. I never had them “clog” up with junk, nor did I have any slippage while playing. I’ve been very happy with the traction.

Payntr Walk for 18 Holes

Golf shoes comfort is measured at 2 times, how my feet feel during my 18 holes of golf and after. The Payntr Sport Classic LE Golf Shoes offer comfort, support, cushion and stability for 18 holes right out of the box. The combination of style and comfort makes these a a great choice for walkers. I really liked the spikeless outsole for walking. The PMXSPEED PLT propulsion plate adds a little spring to your step without being too stiff.

I also loved the fact that after my round my feet didn’t feel tired or heavy. These shoes remained on my feet the rest of the day no matter what I was doing. Since they are waterproof too, you can wear them with confidence that even if the weather changes or the grass is damper than you expected, these will stay dry and comfortable for all 18 holes.

Summary

The Payntr Sport Classic LE Golf Shoes bring a new style option to the Payntr line up. They still a classic look, but now more sporty. They have all the features that golfers are looking for: comfort, cushion, stability, traction and performance. I like this sport style, especially for off the course. If you need a daily wearing, all around great performing, stylish golf shoes, these spikeless shoes are the combination you are looking for.
