If there’s one rule to live by with my golf shoes, it’s comfort is king. If I can’t get a golf shoe to fit right, I’m not going to bother with it.

The first time I tried on a pair of the True Linkswear Antigravity golf shoes, I knew I wasn’t going to have to worry about that. I also knew that these would probably be the shoes I would wear for the rest of the year.

I don’t know how else to describe how comfortable these shoes are other than to tell you that when I took my first step in them, I almost couldn’t feel when my foot hit the ground. The Antigravity name was earned. I’ve been wearing the Antigravity for about a month now, and it’s tough to imagine any shoe I’ve found more comfortable. They’ve held up well in competition, too.

Here’s my review of the shoe, looking at five factors: stability, traction, elements, style and, most importantly for the Antigravity, comfort/fit.

Comfort/Fit

What makes the Antigravity so special is the use of PEBAX superfoam. The material is most commonly associated with long-distance running shoes and was found to produce enhanced energy returns. Ping has also used the same material in golf, using PEBAX in the inserts of the Scottsdale and Scottsdale TEC putter lines to produce a soft and responsive feel thanks to the energy return.

Just like how runners can use the extra boost in a marathon, golfers can use the extra boost when walking a golf course. A little extra juice in the tank can mean a lot on the 17th hole — or even the 35th — when your score is on the line.

Now, I know you might think that with such a soft foam used for the midsole, your foot might feel like it’s shifting around. I haven’t felt that at all and I’ll break this down more when we get to the stability section, but i’ve been surprised how well my feet are cushioned without feeling like they move.

I also love a nice wide toe box, and the Antigravity delivers with one wide enough for wiggle room but not so much that my feet are moving. For reference, I typically wear size 11 shoes (occasionally, but rarely a 10.5), and that was true to size for the Antigravity.

Did I mention that the shoes weigh just 10.5 ounces, too?

Stability

For a shoe that is marketed and designed for ultimate comfort, I was really impressed by the lateral stability it provided.

When I first saw and got these shoes, I expected them to be a shoe I would use for quick nine-hole rounds, the range, or when I needed to last 36 holes! But I quickly got the impression these were for all types of golf.

Elements

As I wrote in my last shoe review for the True Ascent PNWProof, I won’t wear any shoe that isn’t waterproof. You just never know what you might face on a golf course even if the forecast is for nothing but sunshine, and there’s no faster way to ruin a round than soggy feet.

Thankfully, I’ve had no issues with wet feet from the Antigravities. The upper shell is a ripstop material that is laminated with TPU material for a waterproof seal. I’ve had no issues with breathability, either, which isn’t a surprise coming from the True brand. These shoes come with a one-year waterproof warranty.

Style

In the initial release — the first drop sold out in 72 hours and was just restocked — True has four colorways, which I think give this shoe some great options. The design really fits that modern, functional golf shoe look while still being clean enough to fit any outfit you might wanna wear.

I loved the Sunset colorway, but went with the Glacier Navy for my first pair. True has already done a green-and-gold-accented, all-white, limited-edition pair of these shoes called the Antigravity+ for the Masters that came out phenomenally.

Traction

If there’s one thing that could be better about the Antigravities, I think it’s the standard tread pattern. I’ll point out that I’ve had no serious traction issues on the golf course, and these shoes are already being worn by True ambassador Joel Dahmen on the PGA Tour. So if they’re good enough for a Tour player, they’re probably good enough for anyone.

That said, the Antigravity+ LEs have an aggressive spikeless TPU outsole from True’s OG3 shoes that I far prefer. It seems like there’s more where that came from as True teased more variations with an Antigravity Pro and Antigravity Leather on their Instagram.

The Antigravity was built to challenge expectations of what a modern golf shoe can be. Powered by our all-new Pebax Superfoam midsole, it delivers featherweight cushioning, explosive rebound and long-lasting energy return for a truly gravity-defying ride. A recycled ripstop upper keeps things breathable and durable, backed by a one-year waterproof warranty to ensure lasting protection in any condition. Finished with a versatile outsole that transitions seamlessly from fairway to everyday wear, it’s a shoe that performs at a high level on the course, and because it feels so good, you won’t want to take it off when you leave. One shoe. Zero limits.

Bottom line

I thought the True Antigravities were going to be a one-trick pony shoe. Sure, they would be comfortable, but could they be versatile and stable enough for competitive golf?

Turns out I want to wear them every time I head to the course now and can’t wait for more styles to be released.

True is making the Antigravity their flagship shoe for 2026 and beyond, and for good reason. If you’re in the market for new golf shoes, you can’t get more comfortable than the True Antigravity.
