There is a lot of cool gear in the golf equipment world that doesn’t always fit neatly into Most Wanted Tests or Buyer’s Guides. You still want to know how it performs. In our We Tried It series, we put gear to the test and let you know if it works as advertised.

What We Tried:

NIKE Refurbished. The Swoosh’s new refurbishment program that gives imperfect shoes new life (and you a sweet discount)

Who Tried It:

Connor. Director of Soft Goods Testing and resident sneakerhead. I believe golf is better with a pair of cool shoes and comfortable joggers. If there’s one thing I love more than shoes, it’s saving money on shoes. I’ve bought a few pairs of NIKE refurbished shoes at NIKE outlet stores but never a pair of refurbished golf shoes.

Just recently, the brand launched a NIKE Refurbished website, making it easy to scroll their entire refurbished inventory in the hopes of finding a hidden gem. After a few weeks of searching and waiting for the right pair to pop up, I finally pulled the trigger on refurbished NIKE Air Zoom Victory Tour 3.

What the heck is NIKE Refurbished?

Though the program has been around for a bit now, this is the first time NIKE has ever offered refurbished shoes online. Here’s what you need to know about NIKE Refurbished:

For Allisen Corpuz, winning the 2023 U.S. Women’s Open at Pebble Beach didn’t just result in a significant payday for the second-year pro from Hawaii who took home $2 million, the richest prize ever for an LPGA major champion.

More importantly, it represented the increased investment and interest in the LPGA and women’s golf. The 2023 U.S. Women’s Open, the first at the famed California course, offered the highest purse in event history at $11 million, up from $10 million the prior year with $1.8 million to the winner.

“Winning the U.S. Women’s Open has been such a dream come true and has also given me many opportunities since then,” Corpuz said. “It’s been awesome to see the increased investment into women’s golf and it is life changing, to say the least. On top of the financial benefits, it’s been heartwarming to meet more fans and hear how they’ve developed a deeper appreciation for the women’s game.”

The growth of the women’s game and golf’s equality will continue to be highlighted this weekend at the inaugural Grant Thornton Invitational.

Taking place Dec. 8-10 in Florida at Tiburón Golf Club and The Ritz-Carlton Naples, the mixed-team tournament features 16 PGA TOUR and 16 LPGA Tour players in the first co-sanctioned event for both tours since the 1999 JCPenny Classic.
