If you include the Fuel Sport golf shoe from 2023, this is the third iteration of FootJoy's casual, spikeless golf shoe. The brand shocked me last year with the surprise release of the Quantum golf shoe. It has a very similar silhouette to the 2025 version of Fuel but came with a slightly different construction that made it one of, if not the, most comfortable golf shoe I've ever worn. So, the bar was set high for the new Fuel as I took it out to Florida for a few rounds of golf.
My first impressions were just how lightweight the shoe is. It's even lighter than the Adidas Adizero ZG I tested earlier this year, which was one of the best lightweight golf shoes I've tested for a long time. The featherweight construction helps with foot and leg fatigue when walking 18 holes while the construction is still premium and robust - the shoe isn't going to fall apart on you despite its minimalist feel. It seems to be a trend amongst the best spikeless golf shoes this year to go lighter, and I'm enjoying this move immensely.
