Another Christmas Gift You Won't Get: 20% Off Canoos You Can Wear On And Off The Course

The biggest golf style revelation of 2017 for me? Shoes you can wear for more than golf.

While the PGA Tour players essentially wear white shoes all the time, you know, just in case Pat Boone invites them to a post-round cocktail reception, golf companies have been working on getting us all better looking (and functioning) shoes. So while the flatbellies keep wearing those white shoes and belts, the rest of us have some incredible options.

"Street" shoes by multiple brands from Footjoy and Ecco are now commonplace and mostly excellent, but two shoes emerged in 2017 are now my go-to choices for golf. You already know how I feel about the Feel Player shoes from Seamus, which also make incredible hiking shoes off the course. And I was also astounded how well they functioned on a wet day at Prestwick.

Then there are Canoos.

A weaker man might have been haunted by showing up to play golf with my podcast co-host in matching Tillinger shirts and white pants, but my confidence remained strong thanks to a new pair of Canoos Canvas golf shoes. I ordered a pair after spotting Team USA showing off their special Americana editions at the Walker Cup (and now available for order).

Aiding my overall confidence?

The shoes provided plenty of support even for this off-balance golf-swinging soul. I've since come to love them since, ordered a second pair and dropped a note to Will Bacas at Canoos about some incentive to get more folks wearing them.

FYI, I'm getting no cut of sales, but instead, hoping to spread the gospel of Canoos since they can be worn on and off the course, THE number one prerequisite for all golf fashion. Plus, there's almost no chance any of your loved ones would be buying these as a Christmas gift.

While some nice season-ending Canoos discounts just ended, the fine folks there are offering a year-end 20% off discount for all men, women and children using the code SHACK at checkout.

So support another of golf's many fine niche companies making some great product at a reasonable price given the quality and style factor. Check 'em out here.

Thank you, Santa! For not bringing them. C'mon. I saw a pair of those navy blue things while in Newport for the Jazz Festival; made a wrong turn and ended up at the yacht club. Just in time to see the christening of the Wasp.

I prefer my Pat Boone in this fashion.....

Love the looks and the concept. However, like almost every other shoe maker, they seem to think that those of us who need narrow shoes do not deserve theirs, or do not appreciate style and comfort. "D" widths only on these and I and others may as well try to wear the shoe boxes.

The 1980s just called...they want their stupid looking shoes back.
