Is January the best time to buy new golf shoes?

If you’ve been putting off picking up a pair of brand-new golf shoes for a while, it’s likely that your current pair is on the older side and has developed a few problems.

Or, you could simply be in the mood to try something new and may have your eye on a shiny new pair packed with the latest golf shoe tech.

Either way, if you’re wondering when the best time is to ditch your old faithfuls and invest in a modern, reliable pair of golf shoes, January might be the optimum time to take the plunge.

At GolfShoes.co.uk, we’re home to an extensive range of golf shoes from all the major golf brands - including Nike, adidas, FootJoy and more – so we’ll always have the right pair of golf shoes for you.

Whether you need spiked models with excellent grip, shoes with waterproof protection to keep your feet dry in wet conditions, or you need a cushioned pair for maximum comfort, we've got you covered.

With this (and your new-year golfing exploits) in mind, let’s discuss why January could be the best time to grab a new pair of golf shoes, to serve you well for the next few years.

Why January is an excellent time to invest in new golf shoes

January sales

Retailers always need to brace themselves for a mad rush over the Christmas period, but the same can be said for the new year too.

January sales have become a time-honoured tradition in the UK, with countless stores slashing prices, hoping to entice customers into making a purchase they didn’t get the chance to make in December.

Plenty of sports retailers get involved as well, with tremendous savings to be had on running shoes, sportwear, and yes, golf shoes. So if you’ve been on the hunt for the best golf shoes for your game, you’ll be spoiled for choice.

At GolfShoes.co.uk, we have some unmissable deals on the most in-demand golf shoes running year-round, but we always add a few extra items to our ‘sales’ page in January as well. So keep an eye on our website in the new year to grab yourself a bargain from top brands.

New styles being released

Generally, new golf shoe models start appearing for pre-order around February, with countless golfers looking forward to trying out a new style that could make a serious difference in their game.

For golfers wanting to save a few pennies on their golf shoes, this doesn’t sound like much of an opportunity, given that new styles always demand the highest prices.

But what many golfers tend to forget is that, in anticipation of these new styles being released in February, many retailers spontaneously drop prices on existing models around January time.

Why? To make way for new stock! Out with the old, in with the new.

So if you have a new pair of golf shoes sitting in your basket right now, and you’re not desperate for a new pair just yet, it could be worth hanging fire if those shoes have been on shelves for a few months or years.

Who knows? They may end up dropping by ten or twenty per cent, or even more!

New Year’s resolutions

New Year always brings with it an avalanche of people wanting to change their lives for the better.

Whether it’s to exercise more, read more books, improve their diet, or play golf, New Year’s resolutions should start strong and continue that way, if people are to see any sustained success. This is why most golf courses see a sharp uptake in new memberships this time of year.

If you’re one of those people who wants to play more golf as part of your New Year’s resolutions, you might not be feeling encouraged if your current golf shoes are ill-fitting, uncomfortable or down-right unplayable.

If that’s the case, it’ll be well worth grabbing a brand new pair of golf shoes in January, before you head out onto the course.

That way, you’ll be kicking off your new year’s golfing results on the right foot (pun intended).
