Golf shoes have come a long way since
the early 1900’s when the first golf shoes were heavy leather boots
with thick nails protruding from the soles. William Park of New York
was granted one of the first U.S. patents for golf shoes in 1917.
Although still made from leather with spikes in the soles, his
boot-like design was much more comfortable. The standard design of
golf shoes until the 1970’s was a leather shoe with metal spikes.
During the 1970’s, designers of golf shoes began tinkering with
rubber compounds for the outer soles resulting in spike plates with
individual spike receptacles replacing the heavy spikes. Golfers
benefited with lighter, more flexible golf shoes. Additional
innovations followed with the introduction of waterproof treated
leather, GoreTex waterproofing, and finally more breathable
waterproofed leather. In 1994, Softspikes introduced the first
nonmetal cleats.
