Golf Shoes Blog Catches Up With Lopro/Athletic Golf Shoes – Supposed To Be The 8th Best Seller
Following the news about the AQL being the best selling golf shoe in the UK, the same source gave out the other shoes in the top ten in Europe. Amongst the list was the FootJoy Lopro which has climbed to be the eighth best seller since it’s launch in January. Now I found a ladies’ Lopro no trouble; as seen here in crimson snake print & white (”Smooth”) which have a retail RRP of $110/£67.50
With FootJoy claiming this success story for the “sporty and ultra-comfortable shoe “, I thought I’d find the men’s on too but then I hit a confusion. I think (and this is an educated guess) that thegolf shoes in the US are not called Lopro but “Athletic” as the picture below and this features a Lopro last. Maybe this is the Lopro in Europe? It looks like the brother to the ladies’ golf shoe.
Both are obviously designed for the younger, more casual golfer.

PS I’ve found the UK mens Lopro which is the bottom picture. RRP £75. It looks to have some design variations but is still a close relative. Personally I like this styling a lot – especially this one with the green. There’s other colours including red but thee’s also another with a rubber coloured last which looks very good too.
