ECCO, Men's Golf Street, Golf Street Premier, Golf Shoes

By Blair Howard, About.com Guide

Ecco Golf Street Premier golf shoes were released in the US in April 2011 and, since then, the hybrid sport-casual Golf Street has become the game's most sought after shoe, "stylishly taking men from home, to the fairway, to the city and beyond," as pro golf legend, Freddie Couples, will attest. Couples, sponsored by Ecco, has been wearing Golf Street Premier golf shoes, almost from the get-go: first at the Cap Cana Championship, his third straight Champions Tour victory in a row then, week later, Freddie Couples, wearing the shoes, took sith place at the Masters Tourament.

Designed specifically to be worn both on and off the golf course, this unique golf shoe is designed to provide players with "ideal traction, stability and comfort."The shoe features full-grain leather uppers while the outsole's roughly 100 molded traction bars -- shown to last five times longer than rubber - provide "more than 800 traction angles for excellent grip in all conditions and on surfaces not found on the course, such as pavement, wood and tile."

The Verdict: As golf shoes go, the Golf Street Premier is, arguably, one of the best, all-around golf shoes on the market today.

The Cost: $140

Where to Get Them: buy online at Ecco USA
