Important note upfront: TRUE linkswear has only 3 reviews on Trustpilot at the time of writing, with a TrustScore of 3.4. That sample is too small to draw any meaningful conclusions from. What it does have — per Trustpilot — is one reviewer calling it the worst customer service they’ve ever experienced, which we can’t verify or dismiss with three data points. This review relies on verified editorial testing from named golf media, retailer feedback and documented product specs. No customer quotes are invented. Where we quote reviewers, they’re from editorial sources, labeled as such.
Golf shoe comfort is surprisingly rare. Most golf shoes are engineered primarily for stability and waterproofing, with comfort as a secondary or afterthought concern. TRUE linkswear was built on the opposite philosophy — comfort first, performance built around it — and it shows in what testers and buyers say. “These are definitely made for playing golf, first and foremost,” noted Golf Monthly (editorial test, TRU Knit II). “TRUE separates itself from the competition in terms of looks; it’s stylish and doesn’t scream ‘golf shoe,’” an AmatureGolf.com panel reviewer observed (editorial test, TRUE lineup). And Plugged In Golf, testing across multiple models, went further: “For pure comfort, I’ve never worn anything like TRUE’s Antigravity shoes” (editorial test, Antigravity series). The company is based in Tacoma, Washington — per official press releases on the Antigravity launch — and sells direct-to-consumer through truelinkswear.com as well as through pro shops, destination resorts and specialty golf retailers. The range covers mostly spikeless and hybrid shoes, with prices running about $149–$244 for most models, per ecomm.design, with the Antigravity line at $199–$225 and the Lux G reaching into the $200s.
The range spans the OG series, the All Day Knit line, the Antigravity family, and the Lux G — all spikeless, most waterproof, and all built around TRUE’s signature zero-drop or low-drop platform that encourages a more natural foot position than traditional golf shoes. Per the brand’s press materials on the Antigravity launch, the flagship Antigravity uses Pebax superfoam — the same material found in elite running shoes — applied to golf for the first time. That’s not a marketing gimmick; Plugged In Golf confirmed the cushioning difference in hands-on testing. Shoes come with a Shoe Finder tool on the TRUE website to match buyers to the right model, per ecomm.design, and 11 waterproof models carry a one- or two-year waterproof warranty, per New England Golf.
The honest caveat: With only 3 Trustpilot reviews, we can’t give you meaningful percentage data on customer complaints. What we can report is what those 3 reviews indicate: TrustScore 3.4, with one review explicitly describing a severe customer service failure, per Trustpilot. Customer service concerns have surfaced in editorial coverage too — Plugged In Golf noted in a written conclusion on the Antigravity that they would “withhold any endorsement until ongoing customer service problems are resolved.” That’s a named, credible golf publication flagging something specific. We can’t confirm or quantify the problem from 3 Trustpilot data points, but it’s worth knowing before purchasing. For the shoes themselves, the editorial picture is significantly more positive.

Trustpilot’s TRUE linkswear profile (truelinkswear.com) contains 3 reviews total, with a TrustScore of 3.4. That’s not enough data to analyze meaningfully — we’d need a minimum of several hundred reviews to draw reliable conclusions about the customer experience. The profile is not claimed, has no reply history, and has no recent review invitations. What we can say from those 3 reviews: one is a severe negative regarding customer service, and the brand hasn’t responded. The balance of this review is built on documented editorial testing from MyGolfSpy, Plugged In Golf, Golfers Authority, Breaking Eighty, Golf Monthly, AmatureGolf.com, New England Golf and retailer data from Worldwide Golf Shops. All quotes from testers are labeled “(editorial test)” to distinguish them from consumer Trustpilot reviews. GlossGirly has no commercial relationship with TRUE linkswear that affects this verdict.
Foot health note: TRUE linkswear’s zero-drop and minimal-drop construction places the heel and forefoot at a similar level — this differs significantly from traditional heel-elevated golf shoes. If you have Achilles tightness, plantar fasciitis or are transitioning from traditional elevated-heel shoes, start with shorter rounds and build up gradually. The wide toe box benefits golfers with bunions or hammer toes; check individual model widths as they vary across the range.
Twenty thousand steps at the PGA Show, per AmatureGolf.com’s panel testers, and the shoes held up. That’s the clearest single data point. Walking golfers who play cart-free specifically choose TRUE for the reason every reviewer names first: they don’t hurt. The Antigravity line’s Pebax foam sits beneath the foot the same way it does in high-end running shoes — responsive, light, energy-returning. Plugged In Golf described it as the most comfortable shoe they’d tested in that category. MyGolfSpy’s reviewer, after switching to TRUE, didn’t go back. These aren’t reviews written after a single hour on a mat at a trade show.
For buyers with wide feet, the toe box is the other comfort story. Most golf shoes crowd the forefoot, particularly in lower widths. TRUE builds around a wider last, and the difference is noticeable. A buyer on Amazon (from retailer desertcart data) described the toe box as more room than any golf shoe they’d worn, while still hugging the midfoot properly.
Spikeless golf shoes always involve a grip trade-off compared to full spikes on wet turf. TRUE’s spikeless sole patterns handle most conditions competently — rubber traction pods that perform well on dry and damp grass. Where they fall short, per AmatureGolf.com’s panel, is in very wet, muddy conditions where spike golfers have a clear advantage. The Antigravity Pro adds more aggressive traction hardware at a $26 premium over the standard Antigravity, per Golfers Authority, which makes it the better choice for tournament players and anyone who frequently plays in rain or early morning dew.
The OG3 Pro offers an actual spiked option for buyers who want TRUE’s comfort platform but won’t compromise on wet-weather grip — a reasonable compromise if you play in climates with frequent rain.
This is unusual for golf footwear but it matters to TRUE’s customer base. The FS-02 and Lux G models in particular were noted by Breaking Eighty as appropriate for “just about any situation” — office, travel, casual evening. The Antigravity Leather (new for the current season, per TRUE’s press release) adds premium full-grain Napa leather and suede to the comfort platform, making it a genuine business-casual option as well as a golf shoe. If you’re the kind of golfer who travels for golf and wants one pair of shoes that works everywhere, TRUE’s range is designed with that in mind.
One to two year waterproof warranties on 11 models is specific and verifiable — the brand doesn’t promise lifetime waterproofing, which is at least honest. Plugged In Golf confirmed the Antigravity Pro’s waterproofing held against a direct hose test. Upper durability varies by model — the knit versions (All Day Knit line) are praised for breathability but are inherently less durable against rough terrain than leather or synthetic uppers.
The shoe that changed how golf footwear talks about cushioning. Pebax superfoam midsole — the material from elite marathon racing shoes — in a spikeless golf silhouette. It’s lightweight, it’s genuinely cushioned in a way that’s different from EVA foam-based competitors, and the rubber traction sole performs well through most standard on-course conditions. Available in several colorways including a limited-edition Antigravity+ LE drop each spring, per Plugged In Golf. If you’ve ever finished a round on foot with aching arches, this shoe solves that for most golfers. A one-year waterproof warranty, per Plugged In Golf testing. Zero-drop construction — worth reading the foot health note above if that’s new to you.
Everything the standard Antigravity delivers plus a more aggressive traction system designed for tournament-level grip demands. Plugged In Golf confirmed the $26 premium is worth it if you play wet golf or compete. Same Pebax cushioning, same low-drop comfort platform, more robust sole hardware. Released in early 2026 per Golfers Authority’s timeline, and quickly positioned as TRUE’s flagship performance model. Two colorways at launch; check truelinkswear.com for current availability. The Antigravity Pro is the right choice if you’re buying one pair to cover all conditions.
The All Day Knit line is TRUE’s comfort shoe for golfers who run warm, play in summer, or simply want maximum breathability over waterproofing. The four-way stretch knit upper is sock-like in fit, keeps feet cool in hot weather per Golfers Authority’s testing at 85 degrees, and provides the wide toe box TRUE is known for. The tradeoff is durability — knit uppers don’t last as long against rough wear as leather or synthetic alternatives, and waterproofing is not featured on the knit models. Perfect for fair-weather rounds, indoor simulators and golf travel in warm climates. The design is distinct enough to work off the course too, per reviewer observations.
The Lux G earned a 10/10 from Wear Testers — one of only two shoes in their entire tested catalog to reach that score, per weartesters.com. That’s a notable citation from a publication that tests rigorously. The Lux G sits at the top of TRUE’s premium tier and takes the brand’s comfort fundamentals into a more refined, tour-caliber construction. Specific pricing was not confirmed at the time of research — check truelinkswear.com directly. If you’re a serious golfer who plays frequently and wants the best TRUE makes, start here rather than working up from the entry models.
“These are definitely made for playing golf, first and foremost.” — Golf Monthly (editorial test, TRUE Linkswear TRU Knit II)
“TRUE separates itself from the competition in terms of looks; it’s stylish and doesn’t scream ‘golf shoe.’” — AmateurGolf.com panel reviewer (editorial test, TRUE Linkswear lineup)
“For pure comfort, I’ve never worn anything like TRUE’s Antigravity shoes.” — Plugged In Golf (editorial test, TRUE Linkswear Antigravity series)
“The Lux G marks only the second shoe to receive a 10/10 based on my criteria.” — Wear Testers (editorial test, TRUE Lux G)
Note: TRUE linkswear has only 3 Trustpilot reviews — insufficient for consumer quote inclusion. All quotes above are from editorial sources and labeled as such. Customer service concerns have been raised in editorial coverage; with only 3 Trustpilot data points we cannot quantify the scope.
TRUE linkswear is primarily a walking golfer’s brand. If you ride a cart for most rounds and comfort is secondary, there are cheaper alternatives. If you walk regularly, play 36 holes in a day, or have foot issues that make standard golf shoes painful by the back nine — TRUE is worth serious consideration regardless of price.
Five practical buying notes: use the Shoe Finder on the TRUE website, it’s model-specific and reportedly accurate. If you’re new to zero-drop footwear, ease in gradually — start with shorter rounds and build up, as the Achilles and calf adjustment takes a few sessions. The Antigravity Pro is the best all-conditions option; the standard Antigravity is lighter and fine for most. For tournament players who need maximum wet-weather grip, spikes are still better in the heaviest conditions. And given the unresolved customer service concerns flagged by Plugged In Golf and the single severe negative on Trustpilot, buy from an authorized retailer with a clear return policy until the brand’s service reputation is better documented.

Per multiple independent editorial reviewers — MyGolfSpy, Plugged In Golf, Golfers Authority, Golf Monthly — yes, and to a degree that distinguishes them from most competitors. The Antigravity line uses Pebax superfoam borrowed from elite running shoes. This isn’t a marketing claim; testers confirm the difference.
Not confirmed in research at the time of writing — check truelinkswear.com directly. The brand does include a Shoe Finder tool and customer service contact. Given the flagged service concerns in one Trustpilot review and in Plugged In Golf’s editorial notes, clarify the return policy before purchase.
Yes, per multiple editorial and retailer reviews. The wider toe box is one of the brand’s most consistently praised features, cited by testers at MyGolfSpy, AmatureGolf.com and Breaking Eighty.
11 models carry a one- or two-year waterproof warranty, per New England Golf. Not all models are waterproof — check the specific model’s listed features before purchase.
The Antigravity Pro adds a more aggressive traction system for approximately $26 more (about $225 vs $199 at MSRP), per Golfers Authority. The cushioning platform is the same. For wet-weather play or tournament conditions, the Pro is the better choice.
The shoes themselves — particularly the Antigravity family and the Lux G — are genuinely excellent. Editorial testers who cover golf footwear seriously don’t hand out scores like 10/10 and “most comfortable I’ve ever tested” without meaning it. For walking golfers who’ve struggled with comfort over long rounds, TRUE represents a real upgrade over most of what’s at the same price point.
The service question mark is real and can’t be dismissed. Plugged In Golf calling out ongoing service problems in a published review is specific enough to take seriously. One Trustpilot reviewer describing the customer service as the worst they’ve experienced adds to it. We can’t quantify the scope with 3 data points. What we can say is: buy from an authorized retailer, know the return policy before you buy, and start with one pair to test rather than stocking up. If that experience goes smoothly — and many buyers’ do — you’ve found some of the most comfortable golf shoes available at any price.
